Pressure Cleaning in Tamarama

In Tamarama the pressure cleaning work is mostly on concrete terraces, pool decks. Clifftop and gully homes, many recent rebuilds with large glass elevations and rendered walls. The defining problem here is the heaviest salt load on the coastal walk, with glass that needs cleaning every few weeks to avoid etching, which decides the chemistry, the pressure and how often the surface needs attention.

We work around Tamarama Beach, Marks Park and the coastal walk, on streets such as Tamarama Marine Drive, Fletcher Street, Dellview Street and Illawong Avenue. Salt spray is the dominant force on Tamarama exteriors. Glass hazes within weeks, render streaks under sills and fixings rust-run within a season, and black algae colonises the shaded southern walls. We schedule Tamarama homes on quarterly glass and six to twelve-monthly soft-wash cycles rather than waiting for the grime to become visible.

Waverley Council. Waverley Council manages Bondi, Bronte and Tamarama beaches and operates a stormwater-to-ocean catchment, so it is particularly vigilant about detergents and debris entering street drains. Coastal salt load means render, glass and metal weather fast here and benefit from a regular soft-wash schedule.
