Rain, humidity, and shade create the perfect conditions for mold, mildew, algae, and stubborn dirt buildup that make even newer fences look neglected. Thompson's Pressure Washing provides professional fence cleaning in Evansville and throughout the Tri-State area, restoring your fence to like-new condition without the cost of replacement. Whether you have a wood privacy fence, vinyl panels, chain link, or aluminum, our team uses the right techniques and equipment to deliver results you can see from the street.
Why Go Pro
Why Professional Fence Cleaning Matters
A clean fence does more than look good. Professional fence cleaning in Evansville protects your investment, extends fence life, and keeps your entire property looking its best.
Save Thousands vs. Replacement
A new fence can cost $3,000-$8,000 or more. Professional cleaning restores the appearance of your existing fence at a fraction of that price, extending its useful life by years.
Boost Curb Appeal Instantly
Your fence is one of the most visible features of your property. A clean, bright fence transforms your yard's entire look and makes a strong first impression on visitors and neighbors.
Prevent Rot & Decay
Mold, mildew, and algae do more than look bad. They slowly break down wood fibers and cause premature rot. Regular cleaning removes these organisms before they cause structural damage.
Prep for Stain & Seal
Planning to stain or seal your fence? A professional cleaning first is essential. It removes old finishes, opens wood pores, and ensures your new stain bonds properly for long-lasting protection.
Safe, Proper Techniques
Too much pressure splinters wood and damages vinyl. Our team knows the exact PSI, nozzle distance, and cleaning solutions needed for every fence material to clean safely and effectively.
Fast & Convenient
Most fence cleaning jobs are completed in just a few hours. We handle all the work while you go about your day. Open 7 days a week with flexible scheduling to fit your life.
Our Process
Our Fence Cleaning Process
Every fence cleaning project follows our proven four-step process. We tailor our approach based on your fence material and condition to deliver the best possible results.
Inspection & Assessment
We walk the full fence line to assess material type, condition, and level of buildup. We identify any loose boards, damage, or areas needing special attention and discuss findings with you.
Pre-Treatment Application
We apply a biodegradable cleaning solution that breaks down mold, mildew, algae, and grime at the root level. This pre-soak does the heavy lifting so we can use lower pressure during washing.
Professional Washing
Using calibrated pressure settings matched to your fence material, we systematically clean both sides of every panel and post. Wood fences get soft washing while harder surfaces receive appropriate pressure.
Final Rinse & Walkthrough
A thorough rinse removes all cleaning solution residue. We do a complete walkthrough with you to make sure every section meets our standards and your expectations. 100% satisfaction guaranteed.
All Fence Types
Fence Types We Clean
No matter what kind of fence surrounds your property, Thompson's Pressure Washing has the expertise to clean it safely. We adjust our methods based on the material to protect your fence while delivering outstanding results.
Wood Fences
Cedar, pine, redwood, and pressure-treated lumber all respond beautifully to professional cleaning. We use soft washing techniques to remove years of gray weathering, green algae, and black mold without splintering or raising the grain. Your wood fence can look like the day it was installed. Pair fence cleaning with our deck cleaning service for a completely refreshed backyard.
Vinyl Fences
Vinyl fences are marketed as low-maintenance, but they still collect dirt, green algae stains, and mildew over time. That once-bright white fence can turn dingy and discolored. Our cleaning process restores vinyl to its original brightness without scratching or warping the material. We use appropriate pressure and cleaning agents designed specifically for vinyl surfaces.
Chain Link Fences
Chain link fences accumulate rust, dirt, and organic growth that makes them look old and neglected. Our cleaning removes surface rust, grime, and buildup from every link and post. If you have privacy slats or windscreen fabric, we clean those too. A clean chain link fence is surprisingly attractive and contributes to your property's overall curb appeal.
Aluminum & Metal Fences
Aluminum and wrought iron fences develop oxidation, water spots, and organic staining over the years. Our cleaning process safely removes buildup while preserving powder coatings and paint finishes. We pay special attention to decorative elements and post caps to deliver a thorough, even clean across every section of your metal fence.

Not when done by professionals. We adjust pressure levels and use soft washing techniques on wood fences to remove dirt, mold, and mildew without splintering or damaging the wood grain. Our team is trained to use the right PSI for every fence material. That said, DIY pressure washing with improper settings can absolutely cause damage, which is why we recommend professional service.
We recommend professional fence cleaning every 1-2 years, depending on your fence material and local conditions. Wood fences in shaded areas may need annual cleaning due to faster mold and algae growth, while vinyl fences typically need cleaning every 2 years. Regular cleaning prevents buildup from causing permanent staining or structural damage.
Absolutely. In fact, professional cleaning before staining or sealing is essential for proper adhesion. We remove all dirt, mildew, and old finish so your new stain or sealant bonds correctly and lasts longer.
