Lakeside surfaces collect pollen, algae and weathering quickly. Pressure washing brings back a clean surface, but different materials need different handling. The work starts with knowing what the surface is and its condition, so it can be cleaned thoughtfully.
About this service
What it involves
- Talking through the surface, its material and how it has weathered
- Washing at a pressure and approach suited to the material
- Taking care around plants, windows and outdoor furniture
- Pointing out boards or stones that look damaged once they are clean
Example scope

Suited to
- Owners opening the cottage for summer
- Homes getting ready for guests or a sale
- Anyone with slippery, algae-covered surfaces
Season & site notes
- Late spring is popular, after pollen season and before the busiest summer use.
- Washing near the water should consider runoff and the shoreline.
- Softer woods may need gentler handling than stone or concrete.
