Household Hints & Help

I had a concrete driveway when I lived in the south. Hired a professional to clean it and I was gobsmacked watching the before/after, so bought one of my own.

Now I have brick, so it is perfect. Love, love, love my pressure washer. There is nothing like watching that dirt float away and leave the raw wood/brick/stone back to its natural glow.

Not to put anything on your plate (especially in this heat), but once it is dry, you may want to consider putting a coat of deck protect on the wood. Cheap and easy to do - you can find it in the paint section of home improvement stores. It will keep the deck boards looking great for a long time.
