How to Prepare Your Exterior Staircase for Power Washing
After scheduling a power washing appointment with one of our experts, start the cleaning process by prepping your staircase:
- Remove obstacles: Move any furniture, planters or other items away from your staircase so our team can easily access the area.
- Protect surrounding areas: If you have any plants or other immovable items near the stairs, cover them with a plastic sheet or drop cloth to protect them from the water spray.
- Sweep the stairs: Thoroughly sweep the stairs to remove any loose debris.
- Inspect for damage: Check the stairs for any cracks or loose paint you may need to repair before your power washing appointment.
Once you prep your stairs, you’ll be ready for your power washing appointment. Our team will handle aspects like applying cleaning solutions and adjusting the pressure and nozzle.
Keeping Your Staircase in Good Condition With Preventive Maintenance
While power washing is a great way to remove stubborn dirt and debris, it’s one step of many in keeping your stairs clean and safe. Some other tasks you can perform to maintain your exterior staircase include:
- Removing dirt: Sweeping or vacuuming your stairs regularly can help maintain the condition of your deck stairs.
- Inspect for damage: Taking the time to look for damage — such as loose fasteners, cracks or splinters and signs of wear on the stringers and support posts — is essential to detect and prevent potential problems before they become more serious.
- Protect against moisture: Ensure proper drainage to prevent water from pooling on your steps or seeping into the stairs and causing more damage.
