Fence cleaning for Round Lake Heights homes

Most of our fence cleaning calls in Round Lake Heights come from homes with a small village of ranches and split-levels. We see a lot of cedar and treated fences, and the work is planned around it.

Round Lake Heights sits on Round Lake nearby, and waterfront wood weathers faster on the water-facing side than the house side. We check both and often give the exposed side a second coat.

We clean fences with a percarbonate wood cleaner and a low-pressure rinse, the same way we clean decks. A pressure washer wand at 3,000 PSI held close to a fence board will leave permanent stripe marks and splinter the surface. We have been called to fix a lot of those.

How the job goes in Round Lake Heights

  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.

Round Lake Heights 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 Round Lake Heights?

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 Round Lake Heights?

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