5 Reasons Why Your Pool Deck Should Be Power Washed

Besides looking unappealing, dirty pool decks pose safety concerns for you and your guests. Green algae, mold and other slippery organics thrive in damp environments like areas surrounding a pool. A well maintained pool deck prolongs the life of your deck and helps prevent slips and falls from ruining the summer!

 

5 Reasons Why Your Pool Deck Should Be Power Washed

 

1. INCREASED SAFETY

The combination of mold, algae, chlorine, and other chemicals can turn any pool deck into a slippery safety concern. To ensure all guests maintain proper footing around the pool, all decks must be properly maintained. A regularly scheduled surface cleaning provides homeowners with peace of mind knowing that their guests will be safe around the pool each and every summer!

2. ELIMINATE MILDEW, MOLD, AND OTHER ORGANIC GROWTHS

Because of their proximity to water, pool decks are highly susceptible to mildew, mold and algae build up. Besides being an eyesore, these organics can gradually eat away at the concrete or wood deck surrounding your pool. Power washing is an easy way to eliminate these concerns before they have a chance to cause lasting damage to your pool deck.

3. INCREASED CURB APPEAL

No one enjoys the sight of a dirty pool deck! A well maintained pool deserves a well maintained pool deck. A professional soft wash process is the best way to ensure your pool deck looks its absolute best for your guests all season long while maintaining the integrity of your decking.

4. STAIN REMOVAL

Pool decks of all materials are susceptible to staining caused by any number of reasons. Irrigation run-off, oil leaks, tire marks, pool chemicals and more make it extremely difficult to remove stains. Professional power washing services have the proper tools and skills needed to safely and efficiently work on any type of pool deck.

5. INCREASED LIFESPAN

Pool chemicals, algae, oils and other contaminants can all cause costly damage to poorly maintained pool decks. Composite, concrete and wood pool decks should all be regularly washed to prevent weeds, algae, and more from taking over and causing permanent damage. A few hours of work each season is all that it takes to increase the lifespan of any pool deck. 

 

What’s Next?

A pool deck wash is a great way to get your pool ready for summer, but why stop there? Dirty concrete, clogged gutters and algae covered decks are all areas of your property that can use some power washing love too!
