Decking cleaning in Caistor on the Wolds edge

Decking cleaning in Caistor means working in one of Lincolnshire’s oldest market towns. It has Roman roots and sits high on the edge of the Wolds, looking out over the Humber plain, so it catches more wind than most towns round here. A lot of the buildings in the centre are old stone and brick. We treat those gently and save the stronger methods for modern surfaces that can take them.

When the weather gets to your deck

Caistor sits up on the Wolds edge, so its gardens get a lot of weather off the Humber side. North and east-facing decks tend to stay damp and pick up dirt blown in from the fields, and that’s where green algae gets a hold first.

✗
Green underfoot
Damp algae makes a deck hard to stand on, and that's how plenty of garden falls happen. So we take it off with a soft wash, which is kind to the boards.
✗
Mould set in
Black mould that shows on the boards and in the joints has got deep into the surface. Before it will shift, it needs treating, and we do that without damaging the wood.
✗
Greying & weathering
Sun and algae, between them, turn timber decking grey. However, once it's properly cleaned, a lot of the old colour shows through again.
✗
Dirt in the gaps
Since the wind blows dirt in, the gaps fill with muck and moss, then stay wet. We clear them during every clean so the boards last.

How decking cleaning in Caistor is done

1
A look and a price
We see the deck first, whether it's timber or composite, how large it is and how far the growth has got. Then you get a fixed price, and you don't have to go ahead.
2
Biocide pre-treatment
Before the wash, a biocide is sprayed on so the algae and mould die off, and that's why the result lasts longer.
3
Soft washing
Then the low-pressure soft wash lifts away the residue, so timber stays whole and composite keeps its finish.
4
Between-board clearing
Also, the gaps get cleared of moss and whatever has blown into them.
5
Rinse & clear
Finally, we take the waste away. When the deck dries, generally within a couple of hours, you can get back out on it.

Decking cleaning in Caistor, your questions answered

Q: Will pressure washing wreck my decking?
A: It can, since high pressure splits timber and can mark composite. Because of that we soft wash at low pressure, so algae and mould come off and the surface is left alone.
Q: Why do north-facing decks go green first?
A: They stay damp for longer, especially up here where the wind brings dirt in from the fields. That damp and dirt is what algae needs, so those decks usually need a clean sooner.
Q: How long is a typical decking clean?
A: Most garden decks take 1–3 hours, depending on size and condition, and we'll give you a better estimate when we quote.
Q: Should I put oil on the deck after?
A: On timber decking, yes, because an oil or stain protects the wood and keeps it looking better for longer. We can also point you to products that suit.

From the initial consultation through to the completion of our roof cleaning, including the thorough removal of all debris afterwards, the Fenland Property Care team were consistently professional, courteous and meticulous. We were also very pleased with the cost of the works, which represented excellent value for the service provided.

The operative arrived on time, as arranged. Brought the necessary kit to clean an accumulation of dirt, weeds and debris over several years from our drive and patio. This was accomplished by the end of the working day when all was looking pristine. Surfaces had been cleaned down. A week later they were back to fill the gaps with kiln dried sand and now it looks like new.

Absolutely brilliant service. Very professional and friendly. Came to give a quote and was pleasantly surprised. My front and back garden look brand new. All slabs are the original colour and weedless and the front is weed free and looks amazing. They worked really hard throughout the day and also returned to finish the work, due to really hot weather. Very good customer service, had a concer and called me back within 30 minutes. Would definitely recommend 👌

An excellent job. From start to finish what an absolute pleasure. No pushy salesman just an authentic genuine quote. Even when I added a couple of bits, nothing was too much trouble. The price was really good too. Paul and Dale turned up on time on the date stated. Even though the weather was horrible they got cracked on with the job. They grafted all the time they were there. The work carried out was exceptionally good. They cleaned up all of the mess afterwards and let the place spotless. I cannot praise them enough. They treated my mum and her bungalow with the utmost respect.

Fenland did a great job cleaning and re-sanding my block paving path and my patio. Polite and efficient and cleaned the doors and windows where the dirt had splashed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Paul cleaned my drive, paths and patio the other day and I have never seen them look so clean. He cleaned the windows and left everything clean and tidy. We were very pleased with the way he worked and have had a lots of compliments from other people. We would not hesitate to recommend his work.
