Cedar House Soft Washing and Wood Restoration in Seattle, WA

At Deep Water Pressure Washing, we take pride in tackling the toughest projects with precision and care. One of our recent standout jobs was the full cedar siding restoration and soft washing of a beautiful custom home in Seattle, Washington. This project required a delicate balance of power and finesse to rejuvenate the home’s cedar siding, pool deck, patios, and a luxurious ironwood deck—all while preserving the integrity of these high-value natural wood surfaces.


Project Overview

This Seattle project involved a full soft wash and restoration of a cedar-sided home, along with detailed cleaning of patios, pool deck areas, and a $100k ironwood deck. Over time, the property had developed moss buildup, dead wood cell discoloration, and signs of aging across its surfaces. Our goal was to revive the natural look of the wood without risking damage through harsh chemicals or high-pressure systems.

We applied low-pressure cedar soft washing techniques that are approved by the Cedar Bureau, which allowed us to safely clean and restore the wood without compromising its structure. For the pool deck and patios, we carefully removed moss and grime, and the ironwood deck was gently refreshed to restore its luxurious finish without over-stripping or etching the surface.


Challenges & Approach

One of the greatest challenges in this project was removing the dead wood cells on the cedar siding without damaging the internal fiber structure that holds the wood together. High pressure can easily mar wood surfaces or cause streaking, so it was critical that we avoided the common mistakes made by inexperienced contractors.

To ensure success, our team followed Cedar Bureau-recommended pre-treatment steps, allowing our solution to break down contaminants and soften buildup before gently rinsing it away. This method allowed us to achieve a deep clean with zero damage, preserving both the look and longevity of the siding and decks.

Additionally, we paid close attention to the ironwood deck, which required a tailored approach due to its dense, high-value material. Our team used a non-invasive soft washing process designed specifically for exotic hardwoods, enhancing its color and finish while maintaining its structural integrity.


Results & Customer Satisfaction

The results of this project were absolutely remarkable. The cedar siding was restored to its rich, natural hue, dramatically improving the home's appearance and curb appeal. The ironwood deck looked refreshed and new, showcasing the grain and quality of the material. The pool deck and patios were left spotless, free from moss, algae, and buildup.

The homeowner was extremely satisfied with the outcome, impressed not only by the transformation but by the careful, expert approach we took to maintain the value and beauty of their home. It was a clear demonstration of how soft washing and professional wood restoration can extend the life of delicate surfaces while improving their appearance tenfold.
