How decking is cleaned
Decking is cleaned at lower pressure than paving, with the fan spread wider and kept moving. Where growth is heavy we use a treatment first and let it work before rinsing, rather than forcing it off with the machine and lifting the timber fibres in the process.
Restore your outdoor space with Hydra Restore
Over time, wooden decking can accumulate dirt, algae, moss and lichen, which not only spoils its appearance but can also make it dangerously slippery. Our specialist decking cleaning service is designed to safely and effectively deep clean your decking without damaging the timber, so it looks refreshed, feels safe and lasts longer.
Our decking cleaning process
We take great care to ensure your decking is cleaned thoroughly, without causing harm to the wood or surrounding areas. Here is how we do it.
- 01
Initial surface prep
We begin by brushing away loose debris, leaves and organic matter. This allows for a cleaner, more even pressure wash.
- 02
Gentle pressure washing
Using adjustable pressure washing equipment, we clean the surface at the correct pressure to avoid splintering or damaging the timber. For particularly stubborn dirt or growth, we may use a rotary surface cleaner for a more consistent finish.
- 03
Algae and moss removal
If your decking has built up algae or moss, we apply an eco friendly biocide to eliminate spores and help prevent future regrowth.
- 04
Optional softwash treatment
For long term results, we offer an additional softwashing treatment that penetrates deeper into the wood to kill hidden organic material and reduce repeat infestations.
- 05
Rinse and dry
Once cleaned, we rinse down the area to remove all residue, leaving your decking clean, safe and ready to enjoy.

Decking cleaning questions.
Anything else, just ring. We would rather answer it than have you guess.
Yes, as long as it is done with care. Too much pressure can splinter or gouge the timber, and too little will not clean it. We use adjustable equipment and clean the boards at the correct pressure for the wood, so the deck is cleaned without damaging the grain.
Where a deck has built up algae or moss we apply an eco friendly biocide that kills the spores and helps prevent regrowth. For longer lasting results there is an optional softwash treatment that reaches deeper into the wood to kill hidden organic growth.
Yes. The green film of algae and moss is what makes wet decking slippery. Removing it reduces the risk of slips and falls, as well as bringing back the colour and texture of the timber.
Our methods are suitable for timber and composite decking, including:
- Hardwood and softwood decking
- Treated timber decking
- Composite and plastic decking boards
- Raised decking areas and garden steps
- Pergola and veranda flooring
Yes. We use eco friendly solutions that are safe for plants, pets and the garden around the deck.
