Planters, tubs and pots Pots and planters look great on your deck. Its a nice way to brighten things up. But when you decide to move them then you can see what lurks underneath - the timber fades at a different rate leaving unsightly "pot" marks, or algae, which loves damp areas, have decided to make it their home! One way to prevent these problems is to place the planters on plant stands - or even the small terracotta 'feet' that are available in any garden center. Rust Marks hard to remove, and often appears as a result of the underside of metal furniture rusting. You can try a rust remover, but test a patch first. Sometimes its the better of 2 evils...rust of a light patch. Sanding also works although you will need to restain the area again.. Best way to prevent it - paint the underside of metal furniture. Decking Furniture Decking furniture looks awesome, but often sits in the same place for ages. It can cause marking and leave "feet" marks. Sometimes cause the deck to fade at a different rate. Quick cleaning tip for marks - try a scrub with hot soapy water. Also move the furniture around to let the sun get to the normally shaded areas under the furniture so it can age evenly.

Moss, mould and mildew can even cause damage to paint and other surface finishes! At Restore Outdoor we use proven soft pressure washing techniques to effectively clean the outside of your home. Soft pressure washing involves traditional pressure washing tools, but uses special nozzles designed to maintain the integrity and finish of the surface. The nozzles shoot out water at a lower pressure than a traditional pressure wash (if you can't hold your hand under the water, it's too much pressure). Instead of a highly pressured stream of water, soft washing uses biodegradable chemicals to safely and effectively remove organic materials. You can soft pressure wash painted surfaces without removing the paint and you can soft pressure wash soft stone surfaces without etching. ​ Soft pressure house washing is safe and effective for cleaning: Weather board Brick Stucco Stone Fiber-cement Gutters Exterior light fixtures ​ When we wash a house, we clean the outside edge of gutters, eaves (the bit of the roof that hangs out over the wall), cladding (including weatherboard, brick, stucco), windows, doors, exterior frames and paint. We even get rid of cobwebs that have been lurking around for a while! Before and After Washing a house with monolithic cladding What our customers say John cleaned the exterior of house, along with all our exterior windows. He was prompt and made minimal impact on those who were home during the time he was there. He was efficient and tidy and our house looked like it had been freshly painted when he had finished!

He did an excellent job washing the house and cleaning the gutters and paths, taking special care of the very thin panes of glass in our older villa.
