Dover Heights 2030
Dover Heights homes and what they need
Dover Heights runs along the cliff top between Vaucluse and North Bondi, with Dudley Page Reserve offering one of the best views back to the city. Military Road and Hunter Street lead to rows of modern homes facing the Tasman Sea.
Most homes here are contemporary, with big expanses of glass, aluminium joinery, rendered walls, roof terraces and travertine or porcelain around pools. Almost all of them take direct salt spray in an easterly.
Salt is the main enemy
Salt spray dries into a crust on glass, aluminium, stainless steel and render. On metal it causes pitting and tea staining. On glass it builds a haze that hardens over time. Regular washing is the cheapest protection, and for homes facing the ocean we recommend every six months.
Roof terraces and balconies
Rooftop terraces and balconies take the full force of the wind. We wash them carefully, controlling water so it drains where it should and doesn't run down the facade or onto the neighbours.

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.
Nathan provided a reliable and professional property maintenance. Great work, fair pricing, and excellent communication. Highly recommend!
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.

Still have a question?
Talk to Nathan directly. He quotes and attends every job himself.
How often should a Dover Heights home be washed?
Ocean-facing homes usually need a wash every six months to stop salt building up on glass and metal.
Can salt damage stainless steel balustrades?
Yes. Salt causes tea staining and pitting. Regular washing slows it down a lot.
Do you clean roof terraces?
Yes. We control water carefully so it drains properly and doesn't run down the facade.
Can you remove hardened salt haze from glass?
Most salt haze comes off with a proper wash. Glass with mineral etching may need specialist restoration, and we'll tell you if we see it.
Do you work in windy conditions?
If spray would drift onto neighbours, we reschedule. Safety and neighbours come first.
