Deck Restoration & Maintenance Services
At A.Patullo Power Wash Inc., we specialize in wood restoration to keep your deck looking beautiful and protected. With our expert services, we’ll help restore the natural beauty of your deck and ensure it stays in top condition through all seasons.
Our Deck Restoration Process:
1. Cleaning & Preparation
We begin by thoroughly cleaning your deck to remove dead wood cells (graying), dirt, mold, and mildew. Unlike other services, we never use bleach-based cleaners—these products can damage your wood, weaken its fibers, and destroy its protective coatings.
2. Wood Protector Application
After the deck has had time to dry (usually within a couple of days), we return to apply one of our high-quality wood protectants. These products are designed to last, ensuring your deck stays protected and looking great. Don’t settle for mass-market water repellents that offer temporary results—our treatments provide lasting protection.
What We Do:
- Cold Water Cleaning:
- We use cold water at 200-400 PSI to gently clean your deck without causing damage.
- Spot Sanding:
- We spot-sand rough wood surfaces to smooth them out.
- Sealer Application:
- We apply a durable sealer to protect your deck.
- Nail Adjustment:

Wet and Dry Cycles
The damaging effects of weather on unprotected wood begin immediately. Rain, morning dew, and even melting snow are quickly absorbed by the unprotected wood, causing it to swell and soften. The suns heat causes drying, this makes the wood shrink. These cycles of wet and dry, swelling and shrinking, cause wood to warp, split, crack, and check. This causes wood to have a shorter life span, needing expensive repairs, or replacement.

Protect Your Deck from the Elements
The weather can be harsh on unprotected wood. Rain, morning dew, and melting snow quickly seep into the wood, causing it to swell and soften. The sun’s heat dries the wood, leading it to shrink. These cycles of wet and dry, swelling and shrinking, lead to warping, cracking, and splitting—shortening the life of your deck and resulting in costly repairs or replacement.
