Work the cool hours
In a Chandler summer the patio slab can hit 130°+ by noon. Do this at 6–8 a.m. or after sundown; you'll work faster, the cleaning won't flash-dry on contact, and you won't cook.
Cobwebs and ceiling first, top-down
Knock down spider webs from the patio cover, corners, light fixtures, and fan blades before you touch the floor — otherwise the debris you dislodge lands on the part you already cleaned. Always clean top-down.
Dry-sweep before any water
Desert dust is fine and it turns to mud the instant it gets wet. Sweep or blow the dry grit off first, then bring out the hose or pressure washer for what's left ground in.
Wipe furniture, then re-dust weekly
Wipe the table, chairs, and cushions down once it's swept. The honest truth: Chandler dust comes back fast, so a quick weekly blow-off keeps it from ever needing a full reset again.
If a 6 a.m. patio session in July isn't your idea of a good time, that's exactly what a $25–$90 patio reset is for — we do the hot, dusty part and you get the space back.
