Decks
Wood and composite decks collect algae, mildew and a gray, weathered layer. We wash with the grain at low pressure so the boards come clean without fuzzing or gouging the wood. It is also the right first step before staining or sealing.

What we power wash
Decks, siding, docks and patios
Upstate winters, pollen and shade leave outdoor surfaces gray and green by summer. Here's how we approach each one.
Siding
Vinyl, wood and log siding get mildew and dirt on the shaded side and under the eaves. We rinse from the bottom up, never spraying water up behind the panels, and keep the pressure low to protect the paint and finish.
Docks & patios
Lake docks and composite steps get slippery with algae; concrete patios and pavers hold moss in the joints. Concrete takes more pressure, composite takes less. We adjust the tip and distance for each so it comes back clean and safe to walk on.
When to book
Spring and fall are the best times to power wash in the Capital Region
Any time above freezing works, but two windows make the most sense for homes from Albany to Queensbury.
Spring, before you stain
Once the snow is gone, decks, docks and siding carry a winter's worth of grime and the first green film. A spring wash gets your deck ready for the season and is the usual prep before staining. Lake George and Saratoga Springs rental owners: book before your first guests arrive.
Fall, before you close up
Pollen, leaves and a summer of use leave a layer that will sit under the snow all winter. Washing in September or October removes mildew before it spreads and gives a surface you plan to stain or paint time to dry while the days are still warm.

Pricing
Quoted individually, equipment and travel included
The price depends on square footage, the surfaces (deck, siding, dock, patio) and how much build-up there is. Send us a few photos and the address and we'll reply with a clear number by phone or email. If you plan to stain or paint afterwards, wash first and let it dry; ask us about painting when you book.
Good to know
Power washing questions
What Albany and Lake George homeowners ask us most. Anything else? Call or send the form.
Will power washing damage my deck or siding?
Not when the pressure matches the surface. We use low pressure and wide tips on wood, composite and siding, and save higher pressure for concrete.
Should I power wash before staining or painting?
Yes. Stain and paint only bond to a clean, dry surface, so we wash first.
Do I need to be home?
Usually not. We confirm access to an outdoor water spigot and the areas to be washed when we quote. Let us know about grills, planters or furniture you'd rather we not touch and we'll work around them.
What if I need to reschedule?
Give us 24 hours' notice and there's no fee; cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice incur a 30% fee. If rain is in the forecast, call us and we'll pick a new date together.
