Composite deck cleaning for Lincolnshire homes

Lincolnshire has wooded 1970s-to-1990s neighborhoods with mature trees, and that shapes how we approach composite deck cleaning here. That means cedar decks on original builds, which changes the prep more than the stain.

Lincolnshire sits along the Des Plaines River, and the tree cover that comes with it keeps decks and fences damp longer in the morning. We schedule washes early in the week so the wood has time to dry before stain goes on.

We clean composite and PVC decks across Lake County with manufacturer-appropriate cleaners and low pressure. The goal is to get the deck back to its original color without leaving wand marks, which are permanent on capped composite.

How the job goes in Lincolnshire

  1. Identify the productCapped, uncapped or PVC, and which brand. It decides the cleaner and the pressure.
  2. Clear and protectFurniture, rugs and planters come off. Rugs left on composite are the most common cause of shadow marks.
  3. Apply cleanerA composite-safe cleaner with a sodium percarbonate base, or an oxalic-based one for tannin and rust stains.

Lincolnshire composite deck cleaning FAQ

Can composite decks be pressure washed?

Only at low pressure with a wide tip. Manufacturers generally cap it around 1,500 PSI held a foot or more away. Higher than that, or a narrow tip, will scar the surface.

What are the black spots on my composite deck?

Almost always mildew growing in the surface texture, fed by pollen and moisture. A composite-safe cleaner removes it. Bleach alone will lighten it and leave it to come back.

How far in advance should I book composite deck cleaning in Lincolnshire?

Two to four weeks in spring and early fall, which are the busiest windows. Midsummer usually has more availability. Text photos and your town and we will give you a date with the quote.

Do you charge extra to come to Lincolnshire?

No. Lincolnshire is inside Lake County, and we cover the whole county from Libertyville with no trip charge.
