Pressure-Washing a Deck
Get the expert knowledge you need for power washing a deck.
Power washing a deck seems like a simple task. Just point and shoot, right? But the reality is that without the right equipment and knowledge, power washing your deck can potentially cause costly or even irreparable harm to the wood.
Choosing the right power washer and operating it at the correct pressure setting are the first keys to correctly power washing a deck. Power washers can be powerful enough to carve into brick or gentle enough to remove a few cobwebs. TESTIMONIALS
For cleaning a wooden deck, you’ll be best served by using the lowest pressure setting that’s still effective. For soft woods like cedar or pine, this is usually about 500 to 600 psi. For harder woods, it can go up to 1200 to 1500 psi.
