Lift years of moss, dirt, old paint, or stain that is marring your exterior surface's natural beauty.

Benefits of Deck Washing

Power washing has many benefits when it comes to improving the look and life of your exterior structures, starting with stopping mold and algae in their tracks. Not only can vegetative growth cause slippery or unsafe surfaces, but it can also damage wood by locking in moisture and causing rot. But thankfully, pressure washing makes light work of removing years of build-up, leaving your surfaces looking good as new. 

Maybe you're getting ready to restain or repaint your surfaces? A professional surface cleaning can lift out deep-set stains, wash away flaking or peeling paint, and remove chemical residue from paint strippers that might have gotten left behind.

Another reason it's great to give your surfaces a power wash before painting? Power washing can make it easier for fresh paint to adhere to your structure's surface. A well-prepared surface, whether you're painting or staining, ensures proper sealing of the material afterward, prolonging its life for years to come. 

Surface cleaning is a good way to make sure your structures, which are exposed to the elements 365 days a year, stay free from standing moisture or infestations from insect pests, which can cause internal damage you might not notice until it's too late. Regular maintenance of your outdoor space lessens the likelihood of unexpected repairs and expenses while also giving your friends and family a great space to get together on the weekends. 

One last reason it's worth it to take the time to call in the professionals? Home values and curb appeal. Whether you're getting ready to sell your home or not, it's always a good idea to keep your property looking its very best. A well-maintained property shows that the homeowner takes pride in their neighborhood, making others want to live there as well. 

Surface pressure washing is just one of the best ways to instantly brighten a space and refresh the look of your home. If you're ready to fall in love with your home all over again, give us a call at 386-627-1870 and schedule your home's appointment today.  

Fences and Additional Structures

You might think power washing your home's siding or back deck is obvious if you're trying to reinvent your outdoor space and boost your home's curb appeal. So it's easy to see why other structures like fences are overlooked. After all, we don't sit on them, entertain on them, or just casually hang out around them for no reason.  

While a fence, for the most part, is a practical addition to mark a property boundary, it's usually not thought of much more than that. We put up fences to keep our pets and children safe or keep our gardens contained. Maybe we're looking for a little privacy and put up the least-expensive fence we can find. 

But the truth is, fences, wood and vinyl, are expensive to put in and expensive to replace. They are constantly exposed to the sun, moisture, freezing and thawing cycles, and build-ups like moss, mold, or algae. 

All these elements can significantly shorten the life span of your fence, forcing you to spend even more money replacing or repairing it. And if you have a long property line you're trying to close in, the unexpected expense but simply be too much at the moment, leaving you with a broken-down fence. 

But one thing that helps? Pressure washing. A good fence washing can remove growth like moss that holds in moisture and breaks down the fence's integrity. It's especially important if your fence is located in a shady area, which makes it even more prone to damp decay. 

At Ten8 Pressure Washing, we have the solution to your problem. We know the perfect technique to restore your fence without creating unsightly divots or cracks that can weaken it further. We remove the dirt and grime, use the correct cleaner, and finally rinse, exposing your fence's natural beauty. 

Like your wood surfaces, if you're getting ready to stain or paint your fence, a professional power washing can clean dust and debris from the surface and help the paint stick to the material while also allowing stains and sealers to spread and absorb evenly, protecting your fence for years to come. Let's also not forget that while your fence might be there for purely practical reasons, it's always nice to look at a fresh, bright section rather than a graying, mud-splattered one. 

While we're talking about structures that you might not think to pressure wash, do you have additional outdoor elements? Pressure washing these surfaces is a great way to make them look better while also helping them last. Whether you have outdoor furniture, statues, or other structures, the experts at Ten8 Pressure Washing know what to do. 

Ten8 Pressure Washing works to ensure we maintain the integrity of your structures, using the right amount of pressure to remove unwanted stains, dirt, or algae growth, while avoiding any damage like splintering or loosening of boards. 

Not only will removing things like algae from your surfaces make them safer, but it will also improve the overall look of your property. If you're looking to sell a house, one of the things potential buyers will take note of is the condition of the structures. If they've been well cared for or look like they're about to deteriorate. Don't lose out on a sale or a higher selling price because of something small like a mossy surface.  

At Ten8 Pressure Washing, we want to help you and your family get the most use out of those outdoor spaces. By investing in seasonal washing, you get your outdoor areas ready for the next family get-together. A freshly cleaned porch welcomes guests as they enter your home. 

So whether you're selling or just wanting to give your home some more curb appeal, don't think you have to invest thousands; just a good power washing can restore finishes and add a new shine to your home.
