To care for your pool deck, here’s what you’ll want to do.
While summer is beginning to reach its end, that doesn’t mean you should stop giving your pool area attention. If you have a pool deck, for example, it’s important to keep it maintained all throughout the year. After all, it’s exposed to the elements all year long, so you’ll have to give it constant care. To care for your pool deck, here’s what you’ll want to do.
Clear Items Off of Your Pool Deck
If you’re going to attend to your pool deck, you first want to remove all of the items from your deck. This way, when you start cleaning and inspecting it, you’ll be able to notice every nook and cranny it has. This keeps dirt, debris and damage from going undetected.
Use a Pressure Washer to Clean Your Deck
Cleaning your pool deck by hand would take far too much time and effort to complete. For this reason, we suggest using a pressure washer for this job instead. Keep the washer on the mild pressure setting, and make sure to put sufficient distance between the deck’s surface and your pressure washer. This is because you can cause damage to your floor boards if there’s too much force from the water. We advise against using a professional-grade power washer for this task because the water will come out too forcefully, causing damage to your pool deck.
Scrub Out Any Stubborn Stains
While surface washers can handle a large portion of dirt on your pool deck, they won’t get the most stubborn stains out. For that task, you’ll want to take some soap, water, and elbow grease, and get those stains out yourself with the help of a scrub brush. If soap and water isn’t enough, you can add chlorine bleach to your soap mixture to give yourself a stronger cleaning solution.
