Pressure cleaning a wood, brick or concrete patio is not as simple as most homeowners assume. Low-pressure garden hoses cannot effectively wash away silt, dirt and mud that settles into the cracks and pores of patio materials. Cleaning a patio with a pressure washer can also result in chipped paint, a damaged lawn and muddy water splattered onto your home’s exterior! Patio cleaning is better left for a professional home exterior cleaning service in Durham.

Our patio cleaning service begins with the application of a powerful but safe detergent that dissolves deep dirt and debris. Your brick, concrete or wood patio, can then be gently rinsed, with low water pressure and without damage to your landscaping or lawn or creating a mess.

WOOD PATIO CLEANING

For wood patio cleaning in Durham, we use the exact same equipment to power wash patios that we use home, we use a different process. “Softwashing” is a lot like power washing except the water pressure is kept much lower. This is important to preserve the paint, stains and finishes on the wood. Soft washing also keep the wood from splintering which can cause structural problems. We have knowledge and experience to utilize the exact pressure needed for the patio. If the patio has considerable damage then we will use the absolute lowest pressure necessary to get the job done without further damage.

BRICK PATIO CLEANING

Brick patios are typically much harder to clean than wood or concrete. Brick patio tiles have raised, textured areas along the top of their surface. These areas make successful brick patio cleaning challenging, even when using a pressure washer.

Our Durham brick patio cleaning service starts with solvents that can easily reach deep areas of dirt and grime, dissolving the thickest mud and ground-in debris. These solutions will remove moss, mold and algae that is growing in between cracks and crevices! We then use special brushes for deep cleaning brick patios, to push off all the thick and unsightly dirt and grime.

CONCRETE PATIO CLEANING

Pressure washing a concrete patio does more than make the patio look nicer. Dirt, dust, grime and other such debris that gets trapped in the cracks and crevices of concrete can eventually get blown into the lawn and ruin its appearance. Cleaning a concrete patio can also remove moss and mildew, mold and algae. When this type of debris becomes damp, it becomes very slick and slippery, and creates a hazard for anyone walking around the concrete patio!

Do not count on a garden hose or DIY online videos that promise to show you how to clean a patio, but instead leave this work to the professionals. Durham Pressure Washing has several years of hands-on experience in patio cleaning in Durham and the surrounding communities, and our professional soft wash systems and brushes guarantee all areas of your home’s patio are pristinely clean and are ready for you and your family to enjoy!
