Sandstone cleaning for Hunters Hill homes

Hunters Hill is in the Hunter's Hill Council area, about 45 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. Streets like Alexandra Street, Woolwich Road and Ferry Street are lined with nineteenth-century sandstone cottages and villas, many built by the Joubert brothers and their stonemasons. Old sandstone has a weathered skin that protects the softer stone behind it.

Heritage sandstone and lime mortar need the gentlest effective method. We test on a hidden area and avoid sealing walls that need to breathe.

Salt crystallises inside sandstone as it dries, which can flake the face over time. Regular gentle cleaning and a breathable sealer slow that down.

Sandstone front fences and garden walls along the street get the most dirt and the least attention.

How often in Hunters Hill

For most Hunters Hill homes, sandstone is worth doing every 12 months. Salt and sand build up quickly this close to the water.

What affects the quote in Hunters Hill

  • Heritage materials: test patches and lower pressure take longer than a modern build.
  • Sandstone: low pressure and dwell time for the cleaner take longer than hard paving.
  • Waterfront: wash water near the shoreline may need to be contained and collected.

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 sandstone be done in Hunters Hill?

For most homes in Hunters Hill, every 12 months. Homes close to the water need it more often.

Do you offer sandstone across Hunters Hill?

Yes. Hunters Hill is about 45 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights, and we also work in Mosman and Killara nearby.

What affects the price of sandstone in Hunters Hill?

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

Can 19th-century sandstone be cleaned safely?

Yes, with low pressure and a stone-safe treatment, tested on a hidden area first. We never use high pressure on heritage stone.

Will cleaning remove the aged look of my house?

No. We remove black mould, lichen and grime, not the natural patina of the stone.

Can sandstone be pressure cleaned?

Yes, at low pressure and after a chemical treatment. High pressure on its own damages the surface and makes it stain faster.
