Decking cleaning in Barton-upon-Humber by the estuary

Barton-upon-Humber sits on the south bank of the Humber, right by the Humber Bridge. The town was once known for rope and brick making, and plenty of old red brick is still standing, including the Saxon church of St Peter. Housing here spans a lot of different eras, so we match the cleaning method to the surface rather than blasting everything the same way. Decking is no different.

Signs your deck needs attention

Being so close to the estuary, decks in Barton-upon-Humber get more wind and damp air than gardens further inland. Timber and composite boards both go green faster here, so they usually need cleaning a bit more often.

✗
Algae underfoot
A wet deck coated in algae is one of the easiest places in a garden to fall over. Because soft washing is gentle, it gets the algae off without hurting the boards.
✗
Dark mould staining
Black spots and streaks mean mould has got into the surface itself. It has to be treated before it lets go, and then we can clean it off while the wood stays sound.
✗
Greying & weathering
Sunlight and algae between them turn timber a tired grey. Still, a proper clean usually brings a good deal of the colour back.
✗
Muck in the gaps
When the gaps fill with moss and dirt, water sits in them and the boards age faster. So clearing them is part of every clean we do.

Our decking cleaning in Barton-upon-Humber, step by step

1
Survey and quote
First we look at the deck, whether it's timber or composite, how big it is and the state it's in. Then you get a fixed price, with no obligation.
2
Biocide pre-treatment
Before washing, we spray a biocide across the boards to kill algae and mould, and that helps the results last.
3
Soft washing
A low-pressure soft wash then lifts the residue, so timber doesn't splinter and composite doesn't mark.
4
Between-board clearing
We also dig the moss and grime out from between the boards.
5
Rinse & clear
Last of all, we take the waste away with us. When the deck has dried, mostly within a couple of hours, it's ready to use.

Decking cleaning in Barton-upon-Humber, your questions answered

Q: Will a jet wash harm my deck?
A: It can do. High pressure splits timber and can scar composite boards, which is why we soft wash at low pressure. That still clears algae and mould but leaves the surface alone.
Q: Can composite boards be cleaned safely?
A: Yes, and they clean up well with a soft wash. Our methods are safe on all the major composite brands, so the manufacturer's warranty isn't affected.
Q: Will the green come back quickly by the Humber?
A: Decks near the estuary do go green faster. Since we put a biocide down before we clean, though, the result holds up for longer than a plain wash would.
Q: Should timber be oiled after a clean?
A: It's a good idea, because an oil or stain protects the wood and keeps it looking better for longer. We can also tell you which products suit your deck.

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.
