wooden deck
Cleaning / maintenance
The weather with sun, snow and rain affects your wooden deck all year round.
​
Any outdoor wood surface is altered by a combination of UV, algae, dew and pollution.
​
We therefore recommend regular cleaning and care of the wooden deck.

​
Various changes occur on the wood surface such as;
Natural greying, surface fibers, algae and moss formation.
​
Let's call this a biofilm.
​
Moisture stays longer in this biofilm and therefore this layer grows.
The aim is to counteract the standing moisture as much as possible.
​
Clean your wooden deck regularly with clean water and a brush.
​
If the biofilm is too "thick", machines and cleaning agents can be used in addition to water.
Not recommended with the water jet of the pressure washer.
​
However, this work is very intensive by hand, which is why we offer mechanical cleaning and care of your wooden deck that is gentle on the wood.
​
We work with a 2 brush special cleaning machine.
​
Was the wooden deck originally treated with paint, e.g. with oil,
we can freshen it up in the desired color after basic cleaning.
​
Spring is a good time to do this.
