Deck and Fence Cleaning in Bala Cynwyd, PA
Decks and fences are outdoor features that define your property’s layout and curb appeal. But over time, they become weather-worn, discolored, and stained from exposure to moisture, UV rays, and biological growth. In Bala Cynwyd, PA, Metro Power Wash offers professional deck and fence cleaning services that safely remove buildup and bring life back to your outdoor structures.
Whether your deck boards are covered in algae or your fence panels look dull and aged, our process is designed to clean thoroughly while protecting the material beneath. No warping, no splintering—just visibly restored surfaces ready for use.
Wood and Composite Surfaces Require Gentle Care
Decks and fences made from wood or composite materials need a delicate balance of pressure and cleaning agents. Too much pressure can cause irreversible damage, especially to aged wood or vinyl. That’s why we use soft washing techniques and calibrated equipment to avoid surface harm while removing deep-seated grime.
Our team inspects every surface before beginning, determining the condition of the material and selecting the right detergent and pressure settings. Whether it’s a cedar fence or a composite deck, our process delivers a consistent clean while maintaining the integrity of the structure.
Common Issues We Address on Decks and Fences
- Algae and Mildew Staining: Wood and vinyl are both susceptible to algae and mildew, especially in shaded or humid areas. Our cleaning solution targets these stains at the root to prevent fast regrowth.
- Discoloration from UV Exposure: Sunlight causes uneven fading on wood and composite surfaces. While cleaning can’t reverse sun damage, it removes surface grime and reveals a more uniform tone.
- Mold Between Boards and Rails:
Moisture builds up in tight spaces, and mold often takes root. Our targeted nozzle techniques get between boards and into crevices where hand-cleaning can’t reach.
Deck Cleaning for a Safer, More Enjoyable Space
A slippery deck is not just unsightly—it’s a safety hazard. Our deck cleaning service removes buildup that causes slick surfaces, especially in damp conditions. Homeowners in Bala Cynwyd rely on us to prepare their decks for seasonal use, whether it’s spring entertaining or fall cleanup.
After our cleaning, your deck is left looking refreshed and ready for sealing, staining, or simply enjoying as-is. Regular maintenance also helps prevent wood rot and surface deterioration that leads to costly replacements.
Fence Cleaning That Respects Material and Structure
Fences are often neglected in routine maintenance, but they’re constantly exposed to dirt, plant debris, and airborne pollutants. A clean fence frames your property beautifully and adds value to the overall appearance of your home. We clean vinyl, wood, and composite fencing of all styles, from privacy panels to decorative pickets. Our techniques restore color, remove green and gray buildup, and extend the fence’s lifespan by keeping decay at bay.
Seasonal Cleaning for Bala Cynwyd Yards
With Bala Cynwyd’s changing seasons, outdoor structures go through cycles of wet, dry, hot, and cold—each contributing to wear and tear. Spring rains bring moss, while summer heat dries and fades wood. Fall leaves introduce organic staining, and winter weather seals in grime.
Metro Power Wash recommends seasonal cleaning—ideally in early spring or late fall—to keep decks and fences in optimal condition. Regular service prevents the type of buildup that leads to permanent discoloration or wood breakdown.
Boost Curb Appeal Without Rebuilding
One of the biggest misconceptions homeowners have is assuming that a faded or dirty deck or fence needs to be replaced. In reality, most surfaces are structurally sound and simply need professional cleaning to look their best again. Our service often uncovers natural wood tones or clean white vinyl that’s been hidden under layers of dirt and mold. It’s an easy, cost-effective way to refresh your yard and make your home’s exterior stand out.
