Power Washing at a property in Prospect Heights on South Parkway. 350 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
A wood deck in Prospect Heights, sitting through a Midwest winter and into spring, collects its share of grime — mildew working into the grain, last fall's leaf stain settled along the boards, the general weathering that comes from months of freeze and thaw. This 350-square-foot deck was ready for a thorough clean before the outdoor season got underway.
Our crew arrived and set up for a pressure wash across the full surface. We worked methodically across the planking, keeping consistent distance and angle to lift the embedded dirt without raising the grain, moving section by section until the whole 350 square feet had been covered. Once the surface dried, the difference in the wood's tone was plain — not transformed, just returned to what it should look like. Invoice went out the same day the job wrapped.
