Hi
Any tips on cleaning weathered decking without a pressure washer?

Thanks as usual

A hose pipe or bucket(s) of water, a yard brush with bristles that won't damage the decking, a suitable cleaning product and lots of energy.

Cleaning decking without a pressure washer

Is bloody hard work!

I'd be tempted to hire one for a day, not MSE at all but your back muscles will thank you.

I used a yard brush, several buckets with flash and clean water to rinse and a mop to lift the dirty water to start again. This was for a balcony and it took several hours and was hard work.

And would you do it again ??

Get a pressure washer, or tell us why you seem dead set against one.

There is nothing wrong with a few hours hard work.

Modern life has so many labour saving devices that we endanger our health by not exercising our bodies enough.
