Yes, it is possible to use a pressure washer for your patio, as long as you do it carefully. Although the force of a pressure washer can potentially damage a deck, using it moderately and well away from the ground prevents this risk. The cleaners at Recyclage Express are specially trained to master the use of Karchers, thus guaranteeing effective cleaning without compromising the structure or aesthetics of your terrace.

The choice between high pressure cleaning and mechanical cleaning in 5 steps essentially depends on your needs, the current state of your terrace and your expectations in terms of results.

High Pressure Cleaning:

• • Ideal for : Decks with moderate soiling or those that have not been cleaned for a short period of time.
  • Benefits : Fast, effective in removing surface dirt and lightly encrusted moss.
  • Disadvantages: May be too abrasive for some delicate surfaces and does not offer protective post-cleaning treatments.

Mechanical cleaning in 5 steps:

• • Ideal for : Decks that have not been maintained for a long time, with stubborn dirt or slippery areas due to moss.
  • Benefits : Offers a comprehensive approach, from initial cleaning to the application of a protective product. Restores shine while extending the life of the terrace.
  • Disadvantages: May take longer than pressure cleaning alone.

Advice : If you're looking for a quick refresh, pressure cleaning might be suitable. However, for a comprehensive approach that deeply revitalizes and protects your deck, 5-step mechanical cleaning is the ideal choice.

The time it takes to clean a deck depends on its size and condition. On average, count between 3 and 6 hours for a medium-sized terrace.

We recommend a professional cleaning of your terrace at least twice a year (in autumn and spring). This removes accumulated dirt and prevents long-term damage.

Yes, we offer patio cleaning services all year round, including winter. However, cleaning may be more complex due to weather conditions. It is therefore preferable to plan cleaning your terrace in spring or autumn.
