Bellevue Hill 2023

Roof cleaning for Bellevue Hill homes

Bellevue Hill is in the Woollahra Council area, about 50 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. The architecture is a mix of 1920s and 30s mansions, Spanish Mission homes with rendered walls and terracotta roofs, and newer homes with pale render, stone and glass. Terracotta barrel tiles on Spanish Mission homes are fragile and hard to replace.

Salt and damp near the harbour encourage black mould on the shaded slopes of the roof. The treatment kills it off over about 12 months without touching the glaze.

Slate and old terracotta are brittle. We walk on them as little as possible, never use pressure on them and point out cracked or slipped tiles.

How often in Bellevue Hill

For most Bellevue Hill homes, roofs is worth doing every 5 to 7 years. Salt and sand build up quickly this close to the water.

What affects the quote in Bellevue Hill

  • Waterfront: wash water near the shoreline may need to be contained and collected.
  • Heritage materials: test patches and lower pressure take longer than a modern build.
  • Older materials: soft brick, original pointing and old paint mean gentler, slower methods.

Our method

How we handle roofs

Google review, Irish
He was professional, responsive, and delivered exactly as promised.

Google review, Luke
Great work, fair pricing, and excellent communication.

Step 03 of 04

Leave it to work

It isn't rinsed off. Rain carries the treatment deeper into the growth over the following months.

Step 04 of 04

Killed off over 12 months

Nathan did a great job washing the external sides of our house. The weatherboard was dirty and had cobwebs. Nathan went above and beyond our expectations, the house was perfectly clean and all the cobwebs were gone.

Nathan did an incredible job at my home cleaning all my outdoor paving areas. He even washed some extra areas of my house free of charge and his price was very reasonable. He's a lovely fella and was prompt, friendly and professional. I highly recommend Nathan's services.

Nathan just completed a pressure wash of our travertine pavers under our alfresco area, around the pool and the sundeck. What an absolutely fantastic job. Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy. We will certainly be calling him back on a regular basis and can highly recommend him.

How often should roofs be done in Bellevue Hill?

For most homes in Bellevue Hill, every 5 to 7 years. Homes close to the water need it more often.

Do you offer roofs across Bellevue Hill?

Yes. Bellevue Hill is about 50 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights, and we also work in Rose Bay and Double Bay nearby.

What affects the price of roofs in Bellevue Hill?

Mostly waterfront; heritage materials; older materials. We inspect first and give you a fixed price, itemised by surface.

Is it safe to clean terracotta barrel tiles?

Yes, with treatment and low pressure. We minimise walking on them and photograph any existing damage.

How long until the roof looks clean?

The treatment takes about 12 months to fully kill off moss, mould and lichen. You'll see it change colour and die back with each rain, and the dead growth weathers off over the year.

Do you clean Colorbond roofs?

Yes, with the same treatment. Nothing is blasted, so the paint system isn't damaged.
