Wood Fence Cleaning in Charlestown, WV | Restored Beauty & $10,000 Saved

Project Overview:

Pristine Window Cleaning recently completed a fence cleaning project in Charlestown, WV for a homeowner preparing to list their property. At first glance, the customer believed their aged, gray, and weather-stained wooden fence would need to be completely replaced before putting the home on the market. The cost of replacement? Likely over $10,000.

Fortunately, they called us first — and we showed them what professional soft washing with a specialty wood cleaner could do.

Our Process:

We used a low-pressure soft wash method specifically designed for natural wood restoration. This included:

Applying a professional-grade wood cleaner formulated to lift deep-set dirt, algae, and UV-related graying.

Using a soft wash technique to gently clean without damaging the wood grain or fibers.

Rinsing and allowing the fence to dry, revealing a fresh, like-new finish that completely changed the curb appeal of the property.

Customer Reaction:

Initially, the homeowner was skeptical when we told them we could make the fence look almost new again. But once the job was done, they were ecstatic. The natural wood tone was restored, the stains were gone, and the entire yard looked brighter and more welcoming.

Most importantly, they no longer needed to replace the fence—saving an estimated $10,000 or more ahead of their home sale.

Why It Matters:

If you're selling your home, first impressions matter. Curb appeal can influence buyer interest before they even step through the door. Replacing outdoor structures like fences is costly—but in many cases, a professional cleaning can deliver the same impact for a fraction of the price.

At Pristine Window Cleaning, we specialize in reviving surfaces, not replacing them. That means smarter spending, faster turnaround, and exceptional results.

Service Area:

We proudly serve Charlestown, Ranson, Harpers Ferry, Martinsburg, and communities throughout Jefferson and Berkeley Counties in West Virginia, as well as nearby Virginia cities.
