Why Wood Cleaning Is Best Left to the Pros

You're all geared up to pressure wash your Fairfax home, ready to blast away years of grime. But hold on! Cleaning wood requires careful attention to detail. This week, Velocity Washers reveals why Fairfax homeowners should leave wood cleaning to the experts.

‍

Here in Fairfax, we're lucky to be surrounded by nature's beauty. Towering trees and lush landscaping give our homes a certain charm. But that charm comes with a price—dirt, grime, and mildew love to cling to our wood decks, fences, and siding.

‍

Now, you might be tempted to rent a pressure washer and tackle those wood surfaces yourself. After all, how hard can it be, right?

‍

Here's the thing: wood cleaning is a lot trickier than it looks. One wrong move—too much pressure, the wrong angle, an incorrect cleaning solution—and you could damage the wood.

‍

Etched wood: That's right, high pressure can actually damage the wood fibers, leaving unsightly marks.

Water Damage: Forcefully spraying water into cracks and crevices can lead to rot and decay, especially here in humid Fairfax.

Uneven cleaning: Ever seen a wood deck with those zebra-stripe patterns? That's amateur pressure washing at its finest.
