It’s tempting — a quick blast with the pressure washer and your deck looks instantly cleaner.
But here’s the problem: too much pressure strips away the soft wood fibres on the surface, leaving it rough, splintered, and more vulnerable to moisture damage. 🤯
Over time, that means:
➡ Faster weathering
➡ Increased risk of rot
➡ Shorter deck lifespan
Instead, the safest way to clean your deck is with low-pressure washing or a professional clean using the correct settings and products for your timber type.
Pair this with regular sealing or oiling, and your deck will stay stronger for years.
Think of it like your skin — you wouldn’t use sandpaper to exfoliate. Treat your deck with the same care.
