Wood, Deck & Fence Cleaning in Mobile, AL
Wood is the surface most easily ruined by an overzealous pressure washer, and it's also the surface that shows algae and grey weathering the fastest in our climate.
Fences and decks catch moisture on both sides and rarely get direct sun for long, which is exactly the environment green algae needs to take hold. The bottom third of a fence board is usually the first place it shows, followed by grey weathering across the whole surface as the wood fibers break down under sun and rain.
A pressure washer will absolutely remove that growth, but it does it by carving lines into the soft early-growth wood grain, feathering the boards, and leaving a fuzzy surface that never accepts a stain or sealant evenly again. Once a deck has been furred by high pressure, there's no undoing it — the damage is permanent.
We clean wood the slower, safer way. A wood-safe solution lifts algae, mildew and grey oxidation, then a gentle low-pressure rinse carries it away without forcing water into the grain or tearing up the surface fibers. Railings, steps, spindles, and the framing underneath a deck all get the same careful treatment as the boards you see.
This method is also the correct prep step if you're planning to stain, seal or paint afterward. A pressure-blasted deck often needs sanding to undo the fuzzing before a finish will take; a soft-washed deck is ready to seal as soon as it dries.

Five steps. Every job.
Soft washing is a process, not a pressure setting. This is the one our crews run on every home, driveway, and roof — and it's why the results last 4–6x longer than pressure washing.
01
Inspect & identify
Every job starts with a walk of the property. We match the right solution to each surface instead of running one mix over everything.
02
Protect the property
Landscaping is saturated with fresh water and fixtures, lights and outlets are covered. This step is why we can guarantee your property.
03
Apply the soft wash solution
A biodegradable solution goes on at under 300 PSI and dwells, killing mold, mildew, algae and bacteria down at the root.
04
Low-pressure rinse
The surface is rinsed gently from the correct angle so nothing is forced behind siding, and landscaping gets a second full rinse.
05
Walk the job with you
A team member walks the finished work with you before we load up. Anything that isn't right gets handled that same day.
