Pool Deck Cleaning in Orlando, FL
Algae and stains off pavers and concrete.
A pool deck is wet more often than any other surface on a property, and it is the surface people walk on barefoot. That combination is why decks grow algae faster than driveways and why slipperiness matters more here than anywhere else. Cleaning a deck well means clearing the growth and the staining while respecting whatever finish is on it, because deck surfaces are far more varied and far more delicate than a poured drive.
Finish first, pressure second
Before anything runs we identify what the deck actually is. Pavers with sand joints will lose joint material if the pressure is wrong. Textured or knockdown finishes have raised profile that can be flattened. Cool deck and painted coatings can be stripped outright. Travertine and stone want a gentler approach again. The setting that is right for a concrete driveway is wrong for most of these.
So we set pressure and technique to the finish, use a surface cleaner where the deck is broad and flat enough to take one, and hand work the coping, the step areas, the pool edge and everything around drains and skimmer lids.
Growth, and the things that stain a deck
Decks pick up more than algae. Sunscreen and body oils leave a film. Leaf and berry drop from anything planted nearby leaves tannin marks. Metal furniture feet leave rust rings. Fertilizer and irrigation water leave their own discoloration. Growth pre treats and rinses out well. The organic tannin marks usually improve substantially. Rust rings and long standing metal stains are the least predictable, and we will say so up front rather than promise a result we cannot control.
Around the waterline we work carefully and control where runoff goes, so we are not pushing everything we just lifted into the pool.
Why Central Florida decks regrow quickly
A deck here is wet from swimming, wet from the afternoon storm, and often shaded for part of the day by a screen enclosure or the house itself. It effectively never dries out through the summer. Because there is no cold season to slow growth down, the surface is available to algae all year. Decks are the surface we most often see on a shorter cleaning interval than the rest of the property, and that is normal here rather than a sign anything was done wrong.

What To Expect
- Furniture, planters and toys are moved off the deck before we start.
- We identify the finish and set pressure to it, not to a default.
- Growth and organic staining are pre treated and given dwell time.
- Runoff is directed away from the pool wherever the deck layout allows.
- Coping, steps and the pool edge are hand finished last.
How Long It Takes
Most residential pool decks run two to three hours. Larger decks, travertine, and decks booked together with the screen enclosure take longer and are often scheduled as a half day.
Pool decks stay damp, so they grow algae fast and get slippery. We clean the deck surface without tearing up the finish.
Common Questions
Will this mess up my pool water?
We direct runoff away from the pool where the deck allows it and work carefully at the coping. Some incidental water entering a pool during a deck clean is normal, and your usual chemistry routine handles it. If the deck slopes hard toward the water we will point that out before we start.
Can you clean a paver deck without losing the joint sand?
Yes, by using lower pressure and the right approach for pavers rather than driveway settings. Some minor sand movement is normal on any paver surface. Aggressive cleaning is what strips joints out entirely.
Do you clean the deck and the screen enclosure together?
That is the most common way it gets booked, because the cage sheds onto the deck. Doing the enclosure first and the deck second means you are not cleaning the deck twice.
