Professional deck cleaning that actually protects your investment instead of destroying it with the wrong pressure and techniques.
Hear from Our Customers
Your deck stops being a liability and starts being the outdoor space you actually want to use. No more avoiding barefoot walks because of splinters or worrying about guests slipping on algae-covered boards.
The safety hazards disappear. The embarrassing stains fade away. Your property value stays protected.
You get your weekends back instead of scrubbing boards that never seem to come clean. And when it’s time to sell, you’ll see every dollar you invested in proper maintenance come back to you.
Blue Ridge Exterior Cleaning has been serving Central Virginia homeowners since they started trusting companies with their most valuable investment. We’ve seen what happens when deck cleaning goes wrong – and what it looks like when it’s done right.
Our team holds certifications from Spray Wash Pro, Spray Wash Academy, and the National Soft Wash Alliance. But what really sets us apart in Mount Crawford is our old-fashioned approach to service.
You’ll talk to real people, not voicemail systems. Our crew communicates clearly about what we’re doing and why. We even deliver invoices and materials in person because that’s how business should be done.
First, we clear everything off your deck – furniture, grills, debris that’s collected in cracks. This isn’t just moving things to one side where wet stain can ruin them later.
Next comes the actual cleaning. We use the right pressure for your specific deck material. Wood gets treated differently than composite. Older decks need gentler handling than newer ones. We remove algae, mildew, and stains without raising the grain or creating the fuzzy texture that happens with wrong techniques.
After cleaning, your deck needs time to dry completely. We’ll return when conditions are right to apply sealers or stains if that’s part of your service. The whole process protects your deck instead of damaging it.
You can typically handle light rain within an hour of sealing, but you shouldn’t walk on the deck for twenty-four hours.

Mount Crawford’s climate is brutal on outdoor wood. You get thirty-degree temperature swings in a single day – freezing your deck at night, then baking it in morning sun. Add Virginia’s humid summers and you’ve got conditions that crack, splinter, and warp even quality lumber.
That’s before factoring in the algae that thrives in this environment. The stuff that makes your deck slippery and dangerous isn’t just ugly – it’s actually feeding on your wood and shortening its lifespan.
We understand these local conditions. We know which cleaning solutions work on Virginia algae strains. We understand how the humidity affects drying times. We’ve developed specialized techniques for everything from historic properties to modern composite materials.
We even have an innovative cork-safe cleaning process for local wineries – because some challenges require custom solutions.
