What does pool cage and deck cleaning in Sarasota involve?
The cage is the surface in Sarasota that collects everything the rest of the property sheds. Under the oak canopy it takes constant leaf drop on the overhead, which sits on the mesh and holds water against it, and the shaded panels green up while the sunny side still looks acceptable. Out toward Siesta Key and the beach side streets it takes salt haze instead, which films the screen and pulls the clarity out of the view before any colour shows at all. Two different inputs, the same wash.
The whole enclosure gets 900 to 1200 PSI. Screens, aluminium frames and rails, and the deck underneath, concrete or brick pavers, as one job. That is soft wash pressure, the same range that goes on soffit and fascia. It lifts growth the mix has already killed and leaves the mesh sitting in its splines. The 3000 to 4000 PSI that cleans the driveway never gets pointed at a screen, and that distinction is precisely how screens get torn by people who do not make it.

Leaf Drop Above, Slick Deck Below
The overhead does the most work and gets the least attention, because you have to stand under it and look straight up to see the state of it. Oak drops onto it year round, the debris holds water against the mesh, and the panels directly under the canopy go first and go hardest. Meanwhile every rain sheets off the top rail and streaks the frame on its way down. Both come off at soft wash pressure in the same visit as everything else.
The deck is the half that matters more than it looks. The same film that greys the screens grows on the concrete or pavers underneath, and around a pool there is always something wet, so a deck that has gone slick is a genuine falling risk rather than an appearance problem. Shade under the cage keeps it damp, and a deck that sits under both a cage and an oak canopy effectively never dries out. It is not the cosmetic part of this job and it does not get treated as such.
On the island side and the streets nearest the water, salt haze stacks on top of all of it. It films the mesh, dulls the aluminium and takes the clarity out of the view through the screen, which is usually what an owner notices well before they notice any green. Same mix, same pressure, same visit. Living closer to the Gulf changes how often the enclosure earns a clean, not how the clean is done.

Why Your Screens Never See High Pressure
The question everyone asks first: will it tear my screens? Not at the pressure we use. Screens and frames get 900 to 1200 PSI, and that number is the answer. Enough to lift the algae, gentle enough to leave the mesh and the frame alone.
Every surface we clean gets its own pressure. Roofs get a maximum of 70 PSI from a battery pump. Concrete gets 3000 to 4000 PSI, because concrete is built for it. A screen is not concrete, so it never gets concrete's pressure. Getting that judgement right, surface by surface, is the job you're actually hiring.
What Gets Cleaned
The whole enclosure, not just the panels you look through. A cage that's clean at eye level and green overhead still reads dirty every time the sun comes through it.

Grey Screens Are Usually Dirt, Not Age
Screen mesh fogs over with the same growth that streaks roofs here. Some of that grey is dirt and algae, and it washes off. Some of it is age, and no wash turns old mesh new.
You get a straight answer about which one you've got. Send Matt a photo of the enclosure and he'll tell you what cleaning will fix and what it won't, before you've committed to anything.
The Deck Is Half the Job
The deck under a cage collects the same growth as the screens, and down there it's a slip problem, not just a grey one. The film that turns a pool deck green is the same film that makes it slick when it's wet, and around a pool it's always wet somewhere.
Screens, frames and deck get cleaned as one job, whether the deck is concrete or brick pavers. A bright cage over a green deck is half a job, so we don't do halves.
The Cleaning Is Chemistry, Not Force
At soft wash pressure, the cleaning power comes from the mix, not the machine. We use surfactant based soap and degreaser mixes matched to each surface, so the growth lets go without the pressure doing damage.
Then the part that matters most. Pool cages sit in the middle of the landscaping, with planting beds right against the frame. We remove the chemical by diluting it down so far it stops acting on anything. Dilution is the solution. If you have irrigation around the cage, run it before we arrive and for at least a week to 10 days after we leave, so nothing dies at the root. That's the step we lead with, because losing the landscaping is the fear that actually stops people booking.

Straight Answers
What people ask about pool cage & deck in Sarasota
Will pressure washing tear my pool screens?
Not at the pressure we use. Screens and frames get 900 to 1200 PSI, soft wash pressure, the same range we use on soffit and fascia. The 3000 to 4000 PSI that cleans a driveway never gets pointed at mesh. The pressure is matched to the surface on every job, and screens are the clearest case there is.
My screens are old. Can you still clean them?
Usually, because soft wash pressure is gentle by design. But old mesh is old mesh, and nobody should promise otherwise without seeing it. Send Matt a photo of the enclosure and he'll tell you straight what cleaning will fix, and whether any panel is too far gone to touch.
Do you clean the deck too, or just the screens?
Both, as one job. Screens, frames and the deck under them, concrete or brick pavers. The deck is where the slip risk lives, so leaving it out would miss the point.
Will the chemicals hurt the plants around my cage?
This is the step we lead with. The mix is matched to the surface, then removed by diluting it down so far it stops acting on anything. Dilution is the solution. If you have irrigation around the cage, run it before we arrive and for a week to 10 days after we leave. Losing the landscaping is the fear that stops most people booking, and this is the answer to it.
How often does a pool cage need cleaning?
Results typically stay clean about a year. Same heat, same humidity, so the growth comes back eventually. When the screens start going grey again, that's the time to call.
What does pool cage cleaning cost?
Every job is quoted free, online, by text or over the phone. Cage size, deck size and how far the growth has gone all move the number, so send a photo or two and Matt gives you a straight answer back. No waiting on an appointment window. No obligation.
The overhead is full of leaf litter from the oak. Does that get cleared first?
It has to be, otherwise you are washing a screen through a layer of debris and the water has nowhere to go. Clearing what is sitting on the overhead is part of getting to the mesh underneath. What it is not is a gutter clear out, which is its own service on its own page. If the gutters need doing at the same time, say so when you call and both go in one visit rather than two.
Our screens look hazy rather than green. Is that salt?
Near the water it usually is, or salt film plus the growth that film has been feeding. It is the reason people on the island side tend to say the view has gone flat rather than saying the cage looks dirty. It comes off in the same wash with the same mix at the same pressure. If a panel stays hazy after cleaning, that is the mesh itself rather than anything on it, and you will hear that straight.
Some panels were replaced and some are original. Will cleaning even them out?
It will even out the dirt, not the age. Cleaning takes every panel back to what that panel actually is, and if half the cage is newer screen and half has been up through twenty Gulf summers, that difference is going to be more visible clean than it was under a uniform layer of grey. That is worth knowing before rather than after. Send photos of the cage and you will get told which panels are going to come back and which ones are simply old.
