Stone Sealing in Bellevue Hill

In Bellevue Hill the stone sealing work is mostly on sandstone walls. Large inter-war and Federation homes on elevated blocks with sandstone fences, render, slate roofs and terraced gardens. The defining problem here is tree-shaded south walls and sandstone that hold moisture, plus long driveways that stain under jacarandas, which decides the chemistry, the pressure and how often the surface needs attention.

We work around Cooper Park, Bellevue Park, Cranbrook and Scots College, on streets such as Victoria Road, Bellevue Road, Kambala Road and Drumalbyn Road. The tree canopy over Bellevue Hill 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.

Woollahra Municipal Council. Woollahra has one of the highest concentrations of heritage-listed homes and Heritage Conservation Areas in Sydney. Many properties feature original sandstone, slate and terracotta that must be cleaned with low-pressure, chemical-controlled methods. Council also enforces strict stormwater rules: wash water cannot be discharged into gutters that drain to the harbour.
