Professional Fences Cleaning and Water Blasting in Christchurch & Queenstown
Fences and retaining walls are highly visible elements of your property, forming the perimeter boundary that defines your home or business. Because they are constantly exposed to damp soil, moisture, and shade, they are highly prone to accumulating thick layers of green algae, black mould, and stubborn lichen. This organic growth slowly eats into wood pores and degrades concrete masonry over time.
At Rise & Shine, we don't just blast away surface grime. Our professional **fence pressure washing** service applies target-specific biodegradable treatments that kill biological growth at the root level, ensuring the spores are completely destroyed. We then use professional-grade pressure washing wands and rotary cleaners calibrated specifically for timber, concrete blocks, plaster, or brick, ensuring a deep clean without marking or damaging surfaces.
Whether you need **timber fence cleaning and restoration** before painting or want to restore a weathered concrete boundary with **concrete fence water blasting**, our fully insured Christchurch and Queenstown teams provide the expert service you need.
Our Fence Cleaning Process
Material Assessment
We assess fence and wall materials to select the correct pressure, angle and cleaning solution for safe, effective results.
Treatment & Clean
Biocide or degreaser is applied as needed, then high-pressure water removes all loosened grime, algae and staining.

Fence & Wall Cleaning Technical Standards
Strict operating procedures for surface integrity & boundary line protection
Soft Wash Pre-Treatment
We mist boundary fences and retaining walls with eco-friendly chemical surfactant pre-washes to release lichen and mould roots before washing.
Calibrated PSI Settings
Water flow pressure is restricted under 800 PSI for timber fences to prevent splintering, and between 800 to 1200 PSI for concrete blocks/brick walls to protect mortar joints.
Retaining Wall Weep Hole Checks
Drainage points and weep holes on masonry retaining structures are checked and cleared of silt build-up during cleaning.
Neighbouring Property Shields
Pre-cleaning assessments are made on boundary line safety, shielding adjacent plants and pets from spray drift.
