What’s that green stuff growing on your deck or fence? In many cases, it’s algae and other forms of organic growth that thrive on outdoor wood, especially in warm, humid climates like we have here in Georgia.
Besides making your deck or fence look dirty and weathered, organic growth can contribute to the breakdown of the protective stain over time. As the buildup spreads, cleaning the wood may reveal areas where the stain has already worn away, leaving the wood more exposed to sunlight, rain, and moisture.
The good news is that regular maintenance can help prevent heavy organic growth from taking over. Routine deck and fence cleaning, periodic inspections, and maintenance staining when needed help preserve the protective finish, keep your wood looking newer, and extend the life of your outdoor structures.
We provide professional deck cleaning, fence cleaning, deck staining, and fence staining throughout Augusta, Grovetown, Evans, Martinez, and surrounding CSRA communities.
