Fence cleaning for Beach Park homes

Fence cleaning in Beach Park starts with knowing the housing: 1960s-to-1980s ranches and split-levels on good-sized lots. We see a lot of older treated-pine decks that were never stained, and the work is planned around it.

With Lake Michigan and Illinois Beach State Park close by, decks and fences here hold moisture longer in the mornings. We schedule the wash early in the week so there is time to dry before stain goes on.

A fence that has never been cleaned will not take stain evenly, and a fence that was blasted with high pressure will take stain in blotches wherever the surface was torn. Cleaning is not glamorous, but it is what decides how the stain looks. If your fence just needs to stop being green, cleaning alone is a good yearly maintenance job.

How the job goes in Beach Park

  1. Pre-wet and protectPlants along the fence line are soaked so the cleaner does not affect them. Siding and windows in range are rinsed.
  2. Apply cleanerSodium percarbonate solution goes on by pump sprayer, dwells 10 to 15 minutes and lifts algae, mildew and gray oxidation.
  3. Scrub problem spotsThe bottom foot of the fence and shaded sections get a stiff brush where growth is thick.
  4. Low-pressure rinseWide fan tip, well off the boards, working top to bottom so dirty water does not re-streak clean areas.

Beach Park fence cleaning FAQ

Can you pressure wash a wood fence?

Only at low pressure with a wide tip, after a cleaner has done the work. High pressure splinters fence boards and leaves wand marks. We rinse, we do not blast.

Will cleaning kill the plants along my fence?

The cleaners we use are oxygen-based and break down into soda ash and water. We wet plants before and rinse after, and have not had issues with lawns or perennials.

How far in advance should I book fence cleaning in Beach Park?

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 Beach Park?

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