Exterior cleaning in Roseville

Federation homes and tree-lined avenues on the lower edge of Ku-ring-gai.

Federation and inter-war homes on leafy streets, with sandstone footings and terracotta roofs. Around Roseville Cinema, Roseville Park, Echo Point Park and the Middle Harbour bushland, on streets such as Pacific Highway, Boundary Street, Lord Street and Clanville Road, the defining exterior problem is shaded terracotta and sandstone that hold moss, and bush-side blocks with leaf-filled gutters.

The tree canopy over Roseville drives most of the work we do here. Leaf litter fills gutters twice a year, tannin stains sandstone, driveways and paths, and moss and lichen take hold on stone and tennis courts in the shade. Stone, gutter and driveway programs on a 9 to 12 month cycle keep these properties ahead of the growth.

Ku-ring-gai Council. Ku-ring-gai Council is one of Sydney's greenest LGAs, with heavy tree canopy across Wahroonga, Pymble, Killara and St Ives. Roofs, gutters and driveways accumulate leaf litter, lichen and black algae quickly, and large blocks mean long driveways and tennis courts that benefit from professional cleaning and sealing. Many properties sit in bushfire-prone areas where gutter and roof debris removal is a safety task, not just an aesthetic one.

Our approach in Roseville: We mix sodium hypochlorite, surfactant and water to a strength matched to the growth on the wall, usually 0.5 to 1.5 percent, apply it with a 12 volt soft-wash pump at under 100 psi, allow a 10 minute dwell, then rinse with fresh water from the top down. Every job is led by a named technician, carries $20 million public liability and finishes with same-day photos. Pricing is on request: we measure, test-patch any stone and send one fixed written figure.
