Using standard high-pressure power washers directly on decking is a costly mistake. Intense water pressure strips away natural wood fibers, causes timber to splinter underfoot, and leaves unsightly, permanent gouges in expensive composite deck boards.
At New Look Cleaning Services, Daniel protects your investment using a surface-safe, low-pressure softwash system:
Gentle Low-Pressure Wash: We use high water flow at low pressure to lift surface dirt and organic grime without eroding wood grain or damaging composite coatings.
Deep Biocide Sanitization: We apply specialized, eco-friendly anti-fungal treatments that penetrate porous timber and composite grooves, neutralizing green algae spores, mildew, and black fungi at the root level.
Safe non-slip Finish: By destroying organic growth entirely rather than just blasting the top layer, your decking stays clean, bright, and slip-free for far longer.
In general, decks should be cleaned once a year. However, the frequency may vary depending on factors like weather conditions, tree cover, and foot traffic.
We clean all types of decks, including wood, composite, and vinyl.

Ireland's damp climate causes micro-organisms like green algae, lichen, and moss to settle deep inside deck grooves, posing two serious threats to your home.
First, damp algae forms a microscopic, oil-like film over deck boards, turning your outdoor space into a dangerous slip hazard whenever it rains.
Second, trapped moisture beneath heavy organic growth causes accelerated wood rot and decay, rotting timber joists from the inside out and forcing expensive structural repairs. Regular low-pressure cleaning eliminates living fungi at the root, preserving wood integrity and extending your deck's lifespan by years.
To safely restore your decking without causing board damage, wood splintering, or composite gouging, Daniel uses a proven 4-step cleaning process:
Step 1: Site Assessment & Clear-Down: We evaluate your specific board material (natural timber vs. composite), inspect structural stability, and carefully move all garden furniture and planters off the deck.
Step 2: Pre-Drench & Plant Protection: Surrounding lawns, flowerbeds, and nearby glass patio doors are thoroughly soaked with clean water to shield them before any treatment begins.
Step 3: Low-Pressure Softwash Application: We apply a specialized, eco-friendly biocide treatment across all deck boards, banisters, and steps to break down green algae, mold spores, and deep-seated grime at the root.
Step 4: Gentle Brush, Rinse & Site Washdown: We lightly agitate stubborn spots, perform a complete fresh water rinse, clean all adjacent exterior windows, and leave your garden spotless.
