[Get Your Free Quote →](tel:2395441165) 🌀 Why Storm Shutters Need Cleaning Why It Matters Hurricane shutters in Naples spend most of the year open and exposed. Salt air settles on them, pollen sticks to them in spring, and summer rain splashes dirt up from the beds below. Accordion shutters hold all of this inside their folds and tracks. Roll-down shutters hold it in the slats and side rails. Bahama and colonial shutters show mildew on the louvers within a season or two. Dirty tracks are more than a looks problem. Grit and dried salt in a track or a roll-down rail make shutters stick, drag and jam. That is the last thing you want when a storm is two days out and everyone on the street is closing up at once. A wash before hurricane season lets you test every shutter while there is still time to call your shutter company. Stored panels need attention too. Corrugated aluminum and steel panels and clear polycarbonate panels often sit in a garage or storage closet for years. They collect dust, mildew and wasp nests. After a storm they come down covered in debris and salt and go back into storage that way. This page is about exterior storm shutters. If you have interior plantation shutters, those are a different job handled by indoor cleaning services. ![Hurricane shutters on a Naples FL home ready for storm season](https://naples-pressure-washing.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Insurance.webp)Clean shutters and tracks are easier to close when a storm is coming.Condo OwnersMany associations set rules on shutter type, color and when shutters may be closed. Check your documents or ask your manager before scheduling work on shutters on common walls. 🧹 How We Clean Each Shutter Type Our Method ![Low-pressure washing of an exterior wall and storm shutter in Naples](https://naples-pressure-washing.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Pressure-Wash-House.webp)Low pressure keeps slats, seals and polycarbonate panels intact.Accordion shutters are opened and closed in sections as we wash so we can reach the folds. We apply a mild detergent, brush the blades and rinse at low pressure, then flush the top and bottom tracks to clear grit and salt. Roll-down shutters are washed in the down position so we can clean the full curtain of slats, then rolled up while we rinse the side rails. We keep water out of the motor housing and away from switches. Bahama and colonial shutters get a soft wash mix to kill mildew on the louvers, gentle brushing and a low-pressure rinse. Painted wood and older aluminum versions are handled with care so finish does not lift. Storage panels are laid flat and washed on both sides, then left to dry fully before restacking. Clear polycarbonate panels get mild soap and soft brushes only. Strong cleaners and high pressure can cloud and scratch them. | Shutter Type | Where Dirt Builds Up | How We Clean It | | ------------ | -------------------- | --------------- | | Accordion | Folds, top and bottom tracks | Section by section, detergent, track flush | | Roll-down | Slats, side rails | Wash down position, rinse rails, protect motor | | Bahama | Louvers, hinge arms | Soft wash for mildew, low-pressure rinse | | Colonial | Louvers, edges, hinges | Soft wash, brush, gentle rinse | | Storm panels (metal or clear) | Both faces, stacking edges | Laid flat, mild soap, dry before storage | 📅 When to Book Shutter Cleaning Timing Before Season ### Spring prep Washing shutters before June lets you test every one and fix problems before a storm is on the map.
