Power Washing & Deck Cleaning in Vancouver – Get Summer-Ready

Blog Single

After a long, wet winter, your home’s exterior and deck can be left looking tired, slippery, and stained. With warmer weather and patio season around the corner, now is the perfect time to refresh your outdoor spaces.

At Cleaning4U, we provide professional power washing and deck cleaning services in Vancouver to remove built-up dirt, mold, algae, and grime—reviving your surfaces and boosting curb appeal. Whether you’re preparing for BBQs, guests, or just want to enjoy a clean backyard, we’ve got you covered.


Why Power Washing & Deck Cleaning Matter This Season

Outdoor surfaces endure a lot over the winter:

  • Rain, snow, and debris cause slippery mildew and mold buildup.
  • Pollen and pollutants settle on siding and patios, making them dull and grimy.
  • Unwashed decks and stairs become hazards for slipping or splinters.

Cleaning these areas not only improves appearance but also makes your home safer and healthier for you and your family.


What We Power Wash

We use eco-friendly, professional-grade equipment that cleans effectively without damaging surfaces. Common areas we power wash include:

  • Decks (wood, composite, vinyl)
  • Fences and railings
  • Patios and walkways (concrete, stone, pavers)
  • Driveways and garage floors
  • House siding and exterior walls
  • Outdoor furniture and BBQ areas

Deck Cleaning: What’s Involved?

Deck cleaning is more than just spraying water. At Cleaning4U, we take a gentle-but-effective approach that protects your wood or composite materials while removing buildup.

Here’s what’s included:

  • Sweeping and surface debris removal
  • Eco-friendly pre-treatment to break down mildew and grime
  • Low- to medium-pressure rinse, safe for wood grain and joints
  • Spot treatment for stubborn stains or algae
  • Optional: Deck furniture, railing, and stair cleaning

Regular deck cleaning not only improves appearance but extends the life of your wood and prepares it for sealing or staining.


DIY vs. Professional Power Washing – What’s the Difference?

It might be tempting to rent a power washer, but doing it yourself can cause more harm than good.
