"Had work done approx 8 months ago. Power wash first. Killed several expensive plants. Missed some areas when painting. Asked him to use exterior semi-gloss and he used flat. Now paint is peeling off after less than a year application......Cheap unnamed paint brand, poorly prepped resulted in poor result."

"The service turned out well generally. This is the first time I have ever hired someone to do power washing for me and the areas that they cleaned, they seemed to do well, but there was a lot of the grit of the material that was used in power washing that was sort on the side of my deck and on some of the pool equipment and there were even some rings of it where they sat whatever equipment they used on the deck which seemed to mostly wash of. I did not know if that was common for that type of material to be left over and it could not be helped or if they usually washed that kind of stuff off somehow. So, the concrete looks very clean and I am happy with how it looks, but I am not sure about the stuff they left behind."

"We arranged to have the work done while we were away on vacation. The work was done on time, as promised, and I was notified via email when it was complete. The outcome was fantastic....made our old deck look like new, and it appears as though it will last for a long time. We have used this firm before both for work on the deck and for power washing our home, and have been pleased with their work and their pricing. <br />"

"Everyone I talked to and worked with at Ferris was very professional and very nice. Both Emily and Dan were so easy to work with. They were patient with all my questions and requests. Cory was so helpful in working with the scheduling. I didn't feel like I was just another customer. The work completed is well done and the installers didn't cut corners just to get a job done."

FAQs for deck, fence, patio or porch clean and seal projects in Dover Afb, DE

You should clean your deck before sealing it. Cleaning before refinishing is critical. If you don’t remove dirt and debris, you'll trap moisture in the wood, which prevents the new sealer from working correctly and can lead to costly repairs. Whether you need to sand, power wash, or sandblast depends on your deck's condition.

Sealing and staining your deck are essential maintenance methods that protect and beautify your outdoor space. Stain adds rich color and guards against fading, while sealant fortifies the wood against moisture and weather damage. Wood type, climate, deck age, and the degree of existing damage determine whether your deck benefits from one or both treatments. Using both options extends your deck’s durability and enhances its overall appearance.

Power washing and sealing your deck costs $500 to $1,700. This process combines the removal of stubborn dirt and debris with a protective seal that preserves the wood’s integrity. Effective cleaning eliminates harmful buildup, and a proper seal prevents moisture damage and wood decay, ensuring long-term durability and reducing future repair expenses.

Your deck must be sealed every one to three years to maintain its strength and appearance. Regular sealing is essential to protect the wood against moisture, mold, and harmful UV rays. A consistent sealing schedule prevents rapid deterioration and costly repairs. Inspections should be performed annually to determine if the protective layer remains intact, extending the life of your deck.

Leaving your deck untreated compromises its structural integrity and safety. An unprotected deck rots quickly due to moisture and environmental exposure, which means that neglecting sealing results in rapid decay and expensive replacement costs of $4,125 to $11,650. Sealing your deck is essential for maintaining its durability and protecting your home.

The sealant on your deck dries within a few hours and reaches full cure within 72 hours before regular use. It is essential to wait until the complete curing period to ensure the protective layer fully sets and resists weather and foot traffic. Proper drying guarantees that your deck is fully protected against moisture and environmental damage, ensuring lasting quality.
