Auckland’s climate dictates that decks should be cleaned every 3-4 months to stay in top condition. Auckland is fairly humid, which favours the accumulation of moss and mould on decks. Just add a little moisture and poorly maintained decks can become a real slip hazard. If you’re concerned about cleaning it yourself or just want it done by an expert. Tailored Property Services has years of experience cleaning decks throughout Auckland and we are proud of our track record of satisfied customers.
Rather than attempting this yourself, you will get a clean and shiny look that will last longer and save you plenty of time and effort. Whether you want to hire us or do this yourself, here is a quick four-step guide to deck cleaning this Autumn.
- Clear the deck
Remove all your outdoor furniture from the deck to avoid missing spots.
- Brush the deck
To remove larger debris, such as twigs and leaves, from your deck, it is important to start with a good sweep to remove any dirt from the surface of the wood. This will also stop debris from building up and embedding itself into the timber which could cause lasting damage.
- Wash with deck cleaning equipment
Our highly trained team of experts use the latest deck cleaning equipment to eliminate bacteria, moss, mould and lichen that can cause long-term damage and accelerate the decay of your deck. We use environmentally friendly/biodegradable cleaning products to remove even the most deeply rooted moss and mould. Warm water and soap just don’t cut it.Different patio materials require different cleaning methods to ensure an optimal finish without damaging the wood or the fasteners used. Our experts have years of experience cleaning all types of terraces and can recommend a solution that suits your specific needs.
