Professional Deck Cleaning in Richmond, VA

Your deck takes a beating from Richmond's hot summers, wet springs, and freeze-thaw winters. Mold, mildew, algae, and ground-in dirt don't just look bad — they make wood surfaces slippery and accelerate decay. Evergreen Cleaning restores decks across the Richmond metro area using professional soft wash and pressure washing techniques.

Why Decks Need Professional Cleaning

Most Richmond decks accumulate visible mold and algae growth within 12-18 months. Left untreated, biological growth traps moisture against the wood, leading to premature rot, warping, and structural damage. A professional cleaning every 1-2 years extends the life of your deck by years and keeps it safe for your family.

Our Deck Cleaning Process

Surface Assessment

We inspect your deck material (pressure-treated pine, cedar, composite, or hardwood), identify problem areas, and select the right cleaning method and pressure settings.

Pre-Treatment Application

A biodegradable cleaning solution is applied to break down mold, mildew, algae, and organic staining at the root.

Controlled Pressure Washing

We clean the deck surface using calibrated pressure — enough to remove embedded dirt and staining, gentle enough to avoid damaging wood fibers or composite surfaces.

Railing, Steps, and Detail Work

Railings, stairs, and hard-to-reach areas receive the same attention as the main deck surface.

Deck Materials We Clean

Pressure-treated pine — the most common deck material in Richmond
Cedar and redwood — requires gentler pressure to preserve grain
Composite decking (Trex, TimberTech, Azek) — low-pressure wash with specialized cleaners
Hardwood (ipe, mahogany) — careful cleaning to maintain natural oils
