Deck Stair Cleaning

What This Service Involves

Deck stairs are a real slip risk in the Northwest, where treads stay shaded and grow algae faster than the main deck. We soft wash the treads, risers, and stringers and hand-detail the tread noses where growth clings hardest. Restoring traction here matters more than anywhere else on the deck because a slick step causes falls. The stairs finish clean, even, and far safer underfoot in the rain.

Our Process

1) Clear the stairs and protect surroundings; 2) Apply a wood-safe cleaner to treads and risers; 3) Hand-detail noses and stringer edges; 4) Rinse from the top step down evenly
