How often should it be done?
Decking often needs cleaning every 6–12 months because timber and composite areas can become slippery quickly, especially in shade or damp gardens.
Common problems solved
- Slippery timber or composite decking
- Green algae in shaded gardens
- Dirt in grooves and high-traffic areas
- Steps and seating areas that need safer footing
Soft-wash chemicals and hypo guidance
Decking requires a careful approach because aggressive pressure or strong chemicals can damage timber fibres or affect finishes. Detergents or suitable biocidal/soft-wash treatments may be considered for algae, but sodium hypochlorite/hypo is only used with caution and surface suitability checks.
Safety note: treatment choice depends on the surface, weather, drainage, nearby plants, pets and access. The aim is to clean effectively without using stronger chemicals where they are not needed.
How often should decking be cleaned?
Every 6–12 months is common because decking can become slippery faster than paving.
Can pressure washing damage decking?
Yes if done aggressively. Pressure, distance and method need to suit the material and condition.
Do you use hypo on decking?
Only with caution and only if suitable. Decking often needs a gentler approach than paving.
