How the service is planned
Tell us the wood type, any existing stain, paint or sealer, and which surfaces you want cleaned. We review visible wear and buildup, then choose a cleaning solution and controlled rinsing appropriate to the material. Questionable finishes may need a small test area before the full cleaning.
Combine services in one quote
Ask about house washing, driveway cleaning and deck cleaning when planning work at the same property.

What to expect from cleaning
Cleaning can remove dirt and organic buildup, but weathering, rot, cracks, splinters and failing finishes may remain. Standard cleaning does not include stripping, sanding, staining, sealing or structural repairs.
Common questions
Wood Cleaning questions
Can you clean stained or painted wood?
We assess the finish and condition first. Loose paint, peeling stain and deteriorated coatings can affect the cleaning plan and expected result.
Does wood cleaning include staining or sealing?
No. Standard wood cleaning covers the surfaces listed in your quote. Staining, sealing, stripping and repairs are separate from cleaning.
Can I combine wood cleaning with another service?
Yes. Send photos of each area and identify any deck, fence or other wood feature you want included so the scope can be confirmed.
