What Patio, Pool Deck and Lanai Cleaning Costs in Brunswick, GA

Atlantic Coastal Cleaning doesn't publish a price or a price range for this work, because a fair number can't be set from a page. Four things move it. The square footage of the slab, deck or enclosure. The surface material — broom-finished concrete, pavers, travertine and cool deck each take a different method. How heavy the algae ring, mildew and salt film have built up since the last clean. And whether a screened lanai or pool cage is part of the job, which adds screen panels and an aluminum frame that have to be cleaned at low pressure. Access matters too. Devon Swanson and Levi Greene walk the property, then hand over one written number for the whole job, with no charge for the visit.

That number doesn't change once the crew starts — not unless something turns up that nobody could see from the walkthrough, and you approve it first.

Every material under your feet has its own rule, and the rules aren't interchangeable.

Concrete takes real pressure — it's the one surface that can. A rotary surface cleaner runs the field, not a wand, so the slab comes out even edge to edge with no pale wand stripes. The wand only comes out for edges, expansion joints and specific stains. Concrete gets pre-treated with a cleaning solution first too, so the algae dies at the root instead of just getting knocked off the top, and the clean lasts longer than a water-only spray.

Pavers are cleaned at lower pressure than concrete, because the algae lives in the joints and the joint sand has to stay where it is. If a joint has already lost sand, you get told, because the fix is simple and it stops the pavers shifting.

Travertine shows up around the newer pools near East Beach. It's a soft, porous stone, and on this coast it holds salt and algae in every pore. No high pressure. No acid cleaner. Solution, dwell time and a gentle rinse.

Cool deck is a brittle textured cement coating. Pressure chips it, and the chips don't come back. It's cleaned at reduced pressure for that reason alone.

The more delicate the surface, the more of the work is chemistry, dwell time and careful rinsing rather than pressure, and careful work takes longer. That time is a real cost driver, and it's also the reason the surface doesn't get pitted, etched or chipped.

This is the question most pool owners ask before anything else, and the protocol is straightforward.

The cleaning solution goes on the deck, not the pool. The rinse runs away from the water. If there's a cover, it goes on. A quick skim afterward handles anything that drifted in while the work was going on. That protocol is the standard for every pool deck cleaning job, not an extra step added for this page.

Pool water and equipment get protected during the visit. Servicing, treating or balancing the water stays with whoever looks after the pool itself.

On timing: the island pool season runs roughly April through October, so spring, before the first swim, is when this work matters most.

You don't have to block out a day waiting on a truck to find out what this costs.

A rough size and a couple of phone photos get the crew most of the way to a realistic scope before anyone arrives. Most customers prefer it that way: text the photos, get a straight answer back. Mention whether there's a screened lanai or pool cage, because that changes the scope more than almost anything else about the space.

The full quote is free and written, given after a walk of the property, with no charge for the visit. One number for the whole job.

For rental owners and property managers on St. Simons Island and Sea Island, the work can be set on a standing schedule so the deck and the enclosure are done between guest turnovers rather than after a guest mentions it. Island rentals turn over on set days, and the crew works around them.

Atlantic Coastal Cleaning is veteran owned and operated. Devon and Levi are the whole crew, so the person who quotes the job is the person on site doing it, and nothing is subcontracted. Once the work starts, the number doesn't change unless something nobody could see turns up and you approve it first.
