landscaping question

[Brett Hartwig]

Anybody have any suggestions on how to clean white landscaping rock? I have white rock around my deck and it is starting to look a little brownish/dingy from the leaves, rain, etc. Think a bleach solution sprayed over the area would work? thanks

I would think a bleach solution would work pretty well. Spray it on with some kind of a spray and let it do the job for you.

I have white rocks too. The bleach solution might work, but the overspray will kill any surrounding grass. I have landscaping cloth under the rocks and we used our pressure washer with a general purpose pressure washer solution we got a Lowe's in a gallon size jug. It worked really well, but you have to do it about every 6 months to maintain them. -Heather

No offense...but those things remind me of old fogey trailer parks in Palm Springs.

Look for some stuff called Jomax. You mix it with bleach and water and spray it on with a regular pump sprayer. The stuff will clean anything. I use it for preping exterior surfaces for painting.
