Porch and Deck Power Washing in Greater Cincinnati
We blast away grime, mud and pet mess from porches, decks, patios and walkways, and we deal with the odor that comes with them. Residential and commercial, from the same local crew that keeps your yard scooped.
What We Wash
Porches
Front and back porches where muddy paws, tracked-in waste and winter grime build up in the corners and along the rails.
Decks
Wood and composite decking that has gone grey and slick, especially the spot by the door your dog treats as the first stop outside.
Patios
Concrete and paver patios where urine soaks in and dried waste and goose droppings cure to the surface in the sun.
Walkways & Dog Runs
Paths, breezeways and dog-run pads at homes and communities, the surfaces that take the most paw traffic and show it.
Why Pet Mess Needs More Than a Garden Hose
Wood and concrete are porous. Urine wicks into deck boards and settles into the pores of a patio slab, and feces that sat for a day leaves residue in the grain that a broom moves around rather than removes. A hose rinses the surface and leaves the source, which is why the smell comes back every time Cincinnati humidity climbs.
Goose droppings are the extreme case. On concrete and composite decking they dry into a crust that does not sweep off and that a hose will not touch once it has cured in the sun. We see it on pond-side patios and community walkways every spring and fall, and it is the reason our goose cleanup guide spends so long on hard surfaces.
Power washing lifts the residue out of the surface instead of rinsing over it. When the odor has had months to soak in, we pair the wash with our pet-safe deodorizing and sanitizing treatment, which neutralizes what is left rather than masking it. For most porches and decks the two together are what finally make the space pleasant to sit on again.
The Same Crew That Scoops Your Yard
We started as a dog poop removal company, so we walk past these surfaces on every route and know exactly where the mess collects. Add a wash to your recurring scooping plan, book a one-time clean before a cookout, or fold it into a commercial pet waste removal schedule for breezeways and dog-run pads.

Power Washing Questions, Answered
Do you power wash porches and decks in Cincinnati?
Yes. The Doo Doo Doctor power washes porches, decks, patios and walkways for homes and commercial properties across Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. We remove grime, mud and pet mess and the odor that comes with it.
Why hire a pet waste company to power wash?
Because pet mess is the reason most of our customers want the surface washed in the first place. We know where it collects, how it soaks into porous wood and concrete, and why the smell comes back in humid weather. Washing is the first step; our pet-safe deodorizing and sanitizing treatment finishes the job when odor has set in.
Is power washing safe for my deck?
Wood, composite and concrete do not get the same treatment, and we match the approach to the surface. If a surface should not be pressure washed, we will tell you before we start rather than after.
Will power washing get rid of the pet odor?
Removing the residue removes most of the smell. When urine or waste has soaked into wood grain or concrete over time, we pair the wash with our pet-safe deodorizing and sanitizing treatment, which neutralizes the odor instead of covering it.
Do you wash commercial surfaces too?
Yes. Breezeways, dog-run pads, patios and walkways at apartment communities, HOAs, parks and vet offices, usually as part of a commercial pet waste removal plan so the same crew handles it on a scheduled visit.
Can I add power washing to my scooping plan?
Yes. Many customers add a porch or patio wash in spring or before a party, and recurring customers can ask us to add it to an upcoming visit. Quotes are free and based on the surfaces involved.
