Question 1

What is the difference between deck cleaning and full deck restoration?

Accepted Answer

Deck cleaning removes dirt, mildew, and algae so the surface looks fresh again. Full restoration goes further by cleaning with Oxy Wood Wash, brightening the wood with oxalic acid to restore its natural colour, and sealing it with Armstrong Clark sealer for lasting protection.

Question 2

How often should I clean and seal my deck in Halifax?

Accepted Answer

In Halifax's coastal climate, most decks benefit from a yearly clean and a reseal every one to three years, depending on sun and moisture exposure. Salt air and freeze-thaw cycles wear finishes faster here than in inland regions.

Question 3

Why do you use Oxy Wood Wash, oxalic acid, and Armstrong Clark sealer?

Accepted Answer

Each product does a specific job. Oxy Wood Wash safely lifts dirt and organic growth, oxalic acid brightens and removes greying and tannin stains, and Armstrong Clark is a premium oil-based sealer that penetrates and protects wood through harsh maritime weather.

Question 4

Do you clean under decks and around porch overhangs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. WashCrafters cleans accessible areas under and around decks and porches where mildew and debris collect. We confirm what is reachable during your quote so the scope is clear.

Question 5

Will deck cleaning chemistry harm my lawn or plants?

Accepted Answer

No. Our plant-first protocol pre-rinses surrounding grass and landscaping, uses biodegradable cleaning agents where possible, and rinses thoroughly afterward to keep your yard healthy.

Question 6

Do you offer winter pricing for deck and fence work in Halifax?

Accepted Answer

Cleaning, brightening, and sealing all require above-freezing, dry conditions, so this work runs spring through fall. We schedule off-season quotes so your project is booked and ready when the weather turns.

Question 7

Can you clean a vinyl fence as well as a wood fence?

Accepted Answer

Yes. WashCrafters soft washes both wood and vinyl fences. Vinyl typically cleans faster and costs less per linear foot, while wood may also benefit from brightening and sealing.
