Florida is hard on fences

Why fences turn green so fast

Central Florida's combination of humidity, heat, and frequent rain creates the perfect environment for algae and mildew to take hold on fence surfaces. Vinyl privacy fences are the most common offender — the flat white panels act like a billboard for green algae, especially on the north-facing side where shade keeps the surface damp. Wood fences develop dark mold staining that penetrates the grain if left uncleaned. Even aluminum fences accumulate a chalky oxidation layer that dulls their finish over time.

How we clean each fence type

Every fence material requires a different approach. Vinyl and PVC fences get a soft wash treatment: we apply a cleaning solution that kills algae at the cellular level, then rinse with low-pressure water. The fence comes back to its original white without any risk of warping or cracking. Wood fences are cleaned with adjusted pressure and a wider fan tip that strips the buildup without raising the grain or splintering the boards. Aluminum and wrought iron fences are cleaned with a gentle detergent rinse that removes oxidation and surface grime without stripping the powder coat or paint finish.

We work section by section along the full length of the fence, cleaning both sides when accessible. Posts, caps, rails, and gate hardware are all included. For wood fences, we can coordinate with your painter or stain contractor so the fence is cleaned and dried before their application — proper cleaning is the most important step in getting stain or sealant to adhere correctly.

Bundle with house washing

Most customers add fence cleaning when they're already having the house washed. Same crew, same visit, better overall price.

HOA compliance and curb appeal

Many Central Florida HOAs include fence condition in their exterior maintenance requirements. Green-stained vinyl fences and mold-covered wood fences are among the most common violation triggers during architectural review cycles. Regular annual cleaning keeps your fence compliant and prevents the buildup from getting severe enough to cause permanent discoloration. If you've already received a violation letter from your HOA, a professional cleaning is typically the fastest and most cost-effective way to resolve it.

Fence Cleaning FAQ

How do you clean a vinyl fence without damaging it?

We use a soft wash method with low-pressure water and a contractor-grade cleaning solution that breaks down algae, mold, and mildew at the root. High pressure can warp or crack vinyl panels, so we keep the PSI low and let the solution do the work. The result is a fence that looks new without any surface damage.

Can you pressure wash a wood fence?

Yes, but we adjust our technique for wood. We use a lower PSI setting and a wider spray pattern to avoid raising the grain or splintering the surface. For older or softer wood like cedar or pine, we may use a soft wash approach instead. After cleaning, we recommend letting the fence dry for 48 to 72 hours before applying any stain or sealant.

How much does fence cleaning cost?

Most residential fence cleaning jobs in the Orange City and Central Florida area run between $150 and $400, depending on the linear footage, fence height, material type, and how heavy the buildup is. A standard 150-foot vinyl privacy fence typically falls in the $200 to $300 range. We provide an exact price before any work begins.

How often should I have my fence cleaned in Florida?

Once a year is the standard recommendation for most Central Florida fences. Vinyl fences in shaded areas or near retention ponds may benefit from cleaning every 8 to 10 months. Wood fences should be cleaned annually before applying fresh stain or sealant. Aluminum fences generally need cleaning less frequently unless they develop oxidation buildup.
