Orlando fences live a hard life. Year-round humidity, near-daily afternoon thunderstorms during the wet season, and the dense oak canopy shading neighborhoods like College Park, Winter Park, and Conway feed algae, mildew, and mold faster than most homeowners expect. A fence that looks fine from the curb is often green or black on the shaded side, with darker streaks running down the boards closest to pool screens, hedges, and retention ponds.
At Holliday’s Pressure Washing Services, we clean fences the way wood actually wants to be cleaned: a wood-safe cleaning solution instead of bleach, a wand with long passes instead of a surface cleaner, and chemical strength dialed only as high as the buildup requires.
If you want a fence that looks cared for again, call 407-276-1343 for a free quote.
You reach out through our website form, by phone, or by email. We will follow up to confirm the request and ask the deeper questions: what’s growing on the fence, the condition of the wood, and whether the fence is near a waterway.
A written estimate goes out for your review, built from the square footage, material, condition, and complexity factors we discussed. Once you approve, the job is scheduled with a confirmed date. Day-of, you’ll get a text when the crew is on the way.
Our crew makes contact with you on arrival. A walkthrough is optional, and you don’t need to be home. Before chemistry comes out, we protect plants along the fence line and hook up to your water or run from our 535-gallon onboard tank.
We apply the wood-safe cleaning solution with a wand in long, continuous passes. The solution dwells long enough to break down algae, mildew, and mold at the surface level before the rinse.
When rust appears on hinges, hardware, or at the base of the fence, we apply oxalic acid at the right strength to lift it cleanly. Then we rinse the entire fence with fresh water, using the eco-friendly substitute near ponds, canals, or drainage easements.
We do a visual check before leaving. You get photos of the finished fence, an online invoice, and a yard sign. A few days later, we will call to confirm everything held up.
Every fence cleaning job is backed by our satisfaction guarantee. If anything is off after the clean, a missed area or an uneven section you notice on a fresh walk, we put you back on the schedule and come back out to make it right. We’re fully insured, and documentation is available on request.
Here’s what the guarantee covers and what it doesn’t:
No. We never use bleach on wood fences. Bleach causes wood to whiten and the fibers to fur, which then forces sanding to fix. Instead, we use a wood-safe cleaning solution that removes algae and mildew without damaging the wood.
Fence cleaning is priced by square footage and varies based on the size of the fence, the material, the level of buildup, and complexity factors like gates, lattice tops, or landscaping interference. We provide a written estimate after a short intake call. Pricing details for your specific fence are available upon request.
We generally recommend a yearly cleaning as the baseline. In heavily shaded yards, along pool screen enclosures, or near retention ponds, fences may need cleaning more often because shade and humidity accelerate algae and mildew growth.
No. For fences near retention ponds, lakes, canals, or drainage easements, we substitute an eco-friendly cleaning solution and do not use sodium hypochlorite over any waterway.
A fence that is structurally unsafe, collapsing, badly rotted, or leaning dangerously will not be cleaned. If we can clean it safely, we will. If we can’t, we’ll tell you honestly during the estimate process and recommend the right next step.
No. We focus on cleaning, which means removing algae, mildew, mold, and rust safely from the wood. Staining, sealing, and painting are handled by other specialists.
Yes. We use oxalic acid for rust on hinges, gate hardware, and the base of fences near irrigation contact. It’s applied only at the strength the job needs so it won’t acid-etch the surrounding wood or metal.
Yes. Each non-wood material has its own considerations, so we assess on-site and adjust our chemistry and approach accordingly. Reach out for a quote and we’ll confirm the best approach for your specific fence.
It depends on the size and condition of the fence. A typical section can range from about 30 minutes to an hour or more, with larger fences or heavier buildup taking longer.
Yes. We take $75 off when you bundle fence cleaning with any other service, with a two-service minimum. If neighbors on your street want their fences cleaned at the same time, the discount extends to all of them, not just the customer who called first.
