Power Washing in Coboconk, ON
Years of grime, gone.
Damp lake air leaves its mark on cottage exteriors: green streaks on the siding and dark, slick patches on the deck. Power washing in Coboconk covers decks, siding, patios and walkways, with the pressure adjusted for each surface so wood and vinyl don't get torn up. There's a $150 minimum. Book it before you open the cottage and the deck is clean for the first weekend.
Washing Off Lake Damp Before Opening Weekend
Mildew and algae grow wherever a surface stays damp and shaded, and a lakeside cottage usually has more of those spots than a house in town. Deck boards under overhanging branches and stone paths that never fully dry turn dark and slick. That's a slipping hazard as much as an eyesore. We pre-treat heavy growth so it lets go without cranking up the pressure.
Wood decks take the most care with pressure washing. Too much pressure raises the grain and gouges soft boards, so we turn it down for wood and keep the wand moving at a steady distance. A full deck usually costs $150 to $300 to wash. Composite boards need a different approach again, so we adjust for those too. If you're planning to stain this year, the wash is the first step, and it makes sense to book the two together.
Cottage siding collects pollen and damp over a season or two, and the film builds up gradually. For siding, budget $250 to $500 on a typical-sized building. Since many owners are in the GTA, we can do the work while you're away and leave everything rinsed and checked. Parking pads and driveways cost $150 to $250 for a two-car size.
Pedro handles power washing for driveways, decks, siding and patios. For how he approaches power washing in general, see our power washing page.
How power washing works
Assess the surface
Each material needs a different pressure. Concrete can take a lot; wood siding can't. We set the pressure for each surface.
Pre-treat if needed
Heavy mildew, algae or oil stains get a cleaning solution first, to loosen the buildup before we wash.
Wash
We work across the surface in steady, overlapping passes at a consistent distance, so you don't get zebra stripes. Plants and landscaping are protected from overspray.
Rinse and inspect
A final rinse, then a look over everything to make sure it's clean and nothing got damaged.

Power Washing in Coboconk: FAQ
Do you offer power washing in Coboconk?
Yes. Coboconk is part of our Kawartha Lakes service area, and we work there from our base in Bowmanville. Call or text (289) 928-5689, or request a free estimate online.
Our cedar siding has gone grey and green in spots. Can washing bring it back?
Washing takes off the green growth and much of the grey surface, but cedar is soft, so we keep the pressure low, use a wider spray and work with the grain. Too much pressure leaves furry, gouged wood. After a wash the siding looks fresher, and if it's stained, that's the right moment to restain so it stays that way.
We only get up a few weekends a year. Can you wash everything in one trip?
Yes, and from the GTA that's the sensible way to do it. Put the deck, siding and paths on one quote and the combined price comes in lower than booking each surface on its own. If it needs to be done before a family visit, give us the date and we'll aim to finish a few days ahead.
