Deck Cleaning Services in New Jersey
Professional Deck & Patio Cleaning for All Materials
Outdoor living spaces take constant exposure from weather, moisture, UV rays, foot traffic, and organic growth. Our professional deck cleaning services are designed not just to improve appearance, but to preserve and protect your investment.
Deck & Patio Materials We Service
Our deck cleaning services restore and maintain:
- Pressure-treated wood
- Cedar
- Composite decking (Trex-style materials)
- PVC/Vinyl decking

Each material responds differently to moisture, chemistry, and pressure. Our technicians adjust cleaning methods accordingly to protect structural integrity and finish quality.

Wood Deck Cleaning: The Right Way
Many contractors use straight sodium hypochlorite (bleach) on wood. We do not. Straight bleach can:
- Damage wood fibers
- Cause excessive drying
- Lead to premature cracking
- Accelerate deterioration
- Create uneven coloration
Our Two-Step Wood Deck Cleaning Process
- 1. Wood-specific cleaning solution to lift organic growth and dirt
- 2. Neutralizing and brightening step to restore proper pH balance
This process:
• Cleans safely
• Neutralizes the surface
• Preserves wood integrity
• Restores natural color
• Prepares the deck for staining
Important Industry Note:
After professional deck cleaning, staining or sealing is strongly recommended within an appropriate drying window. Cleaning opens wood pores, and leaving them unprotected can accelerate weathering. We partner with trusted finishing professionals to ensure long-term protection.
Composite & Vinyl Deck Cleaning
Composite materials require controlled pressure and manufacturer-approved cleaning methods. High pressure can:
- Etch the surface
- Leave “furring” or striping
- Void warranties
Our deck cleaning services rely on soft wash techniques and appropriate agitation to restore appearance without damaging the finish.
Concrete Patios & Hardscapes
For patios, walkways, and hardscapes, we use:
- Commercial-grade pressure washing
- Heated water when appropriate
- Professional surface cleaners for even results
- Targeted treatment for rust, efflorescence, and organic staining
Ipe (Brazilian Hardwood) Cleaning & Restoration
Ipe is a dense, premium hardwood that requires specialized treatment. Our deck cleaning services include a 2-stage restoration process:
- Safe oxidation removal
- Wood brightening and color restoration
- Proper surface preparation for penetrating oil application
Why Specialized Ipe Care Matters
Ipe naturally grays due to UV exposure. Improper cleaning can cause blotching or fiber damage. Benefits of professional Ipe restoration:
- Extends lifespan
- Maintains premium appearance
- Protects your investment
- Ensures proper oil absorption
Why Professional Deck Cleaning Services Matter
Improper cleaning can:
- Void material warranties
- Cause splintering or furring
- Reduce structural lifespan
- Lead to costly repairs
Professional deck and patio cleaning:
- Extends surface life
- Preserves structural integrity
- Enhances safety by reducing slippery algae

Your outdoor space is an extension of your home. Our deck cleaning services protect it like the investment it is.
Why Heated Water Matters
Heated water improves patio cleaning by breaking down:
- Embedded oils
- Organic buildup
- Grease stains
- Atmospheric pollution
Surface cleaners ensure consistent results without wand marks or striping.
