Wood fences
Privacy fences, picket fences, split rail: you name it, we know how to refresh it. Most structures only need a standard cleaning, where we use low-pressure rinses and algaecide-based cleaners. Our chemistry-driven restorations, meanwhile, benefit heavily soiled and stained fences.
Composite fences
While composite fences like Trex products don't need wood restoration, they still benefit from professional cleaning to tackle organic growth and discoloration. We use appropriate cleaners and low to moderate pressure while paying special attention to hardware, fasteners, and caps.

Our proven fence cleaning and wood restoration process
Our safe, chemistry-driven wood cleaning typically follows this approach:
Free estimate, site visit, and fence evaluation
Reach us via phone, email, or online form. We'll schedule a free, in-person estimate during regular business hours and take note of the following:
- Fence length and height
- Materials present
- Condition of the structure (rot, loose boards, broken posts, etc.)
- Surrounding landscaping
- Whether the client wants simple maintenance or a restoration
Scheduling, pre-arrival communication, and preparation
Once you give us the go-ahead, we can immediately lock in a session with your preferred time and date. We also advise clients to move potential obstructions, keep pets indoors, and ensure easy access if you're away.
If some items near the fence are impossible to remove or must stay dry, we may not be able to fully clean those sections.
Protecting plants, setting up, and standard fence cleaning
Upon arrival, we introduce ourselves and do a quick walkthrough. Nearby greenery stays safe with our careful overspray control and pre-wetting protocols.
For standard cleaning, we rinse the structure with low pressure. Removing organic growth from fences requires algaecide application.
Optional fence wood restoration: deep clean and brighten
Our professional wood restoration services bring new life to older, heavily weathered, or grayed fences. This safe, chemistry-driven wood cleaning treatment includes:
- Sodium percarbonate that breaks down gray, oxidized fibers and organic stains
- Surface agitation for stubborn spots
- Low-pressure rinsing that lifts remaining contaminants
- Oxalic acid brightener to neutralize the cleaning solution and restore the original hue
The benefits of oxalic acid brightening and sodium percarbonate are always worthwhile, but they don't fix damage or deep stains. We always set realistic expectations from the start.
Final rinse, quality check, photos, and follow-up
After a last, thorough rinse, we assess our work with the client if they're present, listen to their feedback, and send the invoice.
We also follow up with the client to ensure long-term satisfaction. Leave us a review so others can hear about your experience!
Guarantees and policies for customer satisfaction
We currently don't offer long-term warranties since local conditions are unpredictable and can hasten environmental buildup. Our work, however, always comes with a satisfaction guarantee. We're always willing to return for touch-ups if we don’t quite hit the mark.
What our customers say
Frequently asked questions
Do you price fence cleaning per panel/linear section, or is it quoted as one total project price?
We quote fence cleaning as a total project price based on the overall job—mainly the size of the fence and its condition—rather than a flat per-panel rate. How dirty it is, the condition of the wood, and the material all factor into the quote.
How long does a typical fence cleaning take?
Most fence cleanings take around 40 minutes to an hour on average. The exact timing depends on the size of the fence and how much buildup or wear we’re dealing with.
Will you clean a fence if boards/posts are already damaged or deteriorating, or do repairs need to happen first?
If the wood is damaged to the point that it isn’t structurally sound, we may not be able to clean it. We look for those issues up front so we’re not washing a surface that could break apart or get worse during cleaning.
Do you use the customer’s water supply for fence cleaning, and how much water does it typically use?
In most cases, yes—we use the customer’s water supply. We typically use under about 300 gallons, which is usually a very small increase on a water bill. If there’s no water access or the property is on a well, we can bring our own water when needed.
What conditions could prevent the fence cleaning from going forward as scheduled, and what happens then?
Severe weather—especially storms or unsafe conditions—can prevent us from working as scheduled. Another common issue is discovering the fence wood is too broken or deteriorated to clean safely, and in that case we’ll stop and talk through next steps and expectations before moving forward.
