Patio Balcony Cleaning in Relation to AirBnB Cleaning

Clearing the Area

Before starting the cleaning process, remove any furniture, plants or other items from the patio. This will provide easy access to the entire area and prevent damage to items during cleaning.

Sweeping or Brooming

Begin by sweeping or brooming the deck surface to remove loose dirt, leaves, debris and spider webs. Use a broom or a stiff-bristled brush to loosen and collect debris, ensuring all corners and edges are thoroughly cleaned.

Stain Removal

If there are stains on the decking surface, identify the type of stain and use an appropriate cleaning method to remove it. For example, use a mild detergent or a special decking cleaner for common stains. For more stubborn stains, such as grease or oil, you may need to use a degreaser or stain-specific cleaner. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and, if necessary, use a scrubbing brush or pressure washer to remove stains.

Pressure Washing

Pressure washing is an effective way to deep-clean decking. It uses a high-pressure water jet to remove stubborn dirt, grime and mould from the surface. When using a pressure washer, adjust the settings to the appropriate pressure level for the type of deck surface to avoid damage. Move the pressure washer in even strokes to cover the entire deck surface.

Scrubbing and Cleaning Solutions

For decking surfaces that are not suitable for pressure washing, or for areas that require additional cleaning, use a scrubbing brush or deck brush along with an appropriate cleaning solution. Dilute the solution according to the manufacturer’s instructions and scrub the surface in a circular motion to remove any remaining dirt or stains. Rinse the deck thoroughly with clean water after scrubbing.

Removing Weeds and Moss

Check the deck for weeds and moss in the cracks and joints. Use a weed killer or natural herbicide to remove weeds and a stiff brush or scraper to remove moss. Pay attention to areas where water tends to collect, as these are familiar places for moss and weed growth.

Sealing or Re-Coating

Depending on the decking surface type, it may need to be sealed or recoated to protect it from future staining, weathering, or colour fading. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the appropriate sealer or coating product, and apply it as directed. This step will help prolong your deck’s life and keep it looking fresh.

Furniture and Decor Reinstallation

Once the decking surface is clean and dry, reposition the furniture, plants and other items you removed. Arrange them attractively and functionally to create an inviting outdoor space for entertaining.
