Roof cleaning for Wahroonga homes
Wahroonga is in the Ku-ring-gai and Hornsby councils area, about 35 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. Its best-known homes are Federation and Arts and Crafts houses with slate or terracotta roofs, timber fretwork, brick and sandstone, set in big gardens with tennis courts and pools. We treat lichen and moss on slate from roof ladders and padded access points, with no pressure and no rinse.
Overhanging trees drop leaves onto the roof and keep it damp, which is perfect for moss and lichen. The treatment kills both off over about 12 months, and the gutters are worth clearing once the dead growth has come away.
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.
The growth dies off over about 12 months, and we report any slipped or broken slates with photos so your roofer can fix them.
How often in Wahroonga
For most Wahroonga homes, roofs is worth doing every 4 to 6 years. Shade, leaf litter and damp bring growth back sooner.
What affects the quote in Wahroonga
- Tree canopy: leaf litter and tannin stains often need a separate treatment.
- 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.
Every quote is fixed and itemised by surface after a quick inspection.
Our method
How we handle roofs
Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy.
Step 01 of 04
Roof inspection
We check for broken tiles, loose capping and fragile areas from the ground and the roof, and photograph anything you should know about.
He was professional, responsive, and delivered exactly as promised.
Step 02 of 04
Apply the treatment
The treatment is applied to the moss, mould and lichen across the roof, at low pressure from the ridge down.
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.
Excellent service! Nathan is punctual and nothing is a problem.
Step 04 of 04
Killed off over 12 months
Moss, mould and lichen die back and weather off over about a year. The roof gets cleaner month by month.

Rated 5.0 from 92+ Google reviews.
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 Wahroonga?
For most homes in Wahroonga, every 4 to 6 years. Homes under trees need it more often.
Do you offer roofs across Wahroonga?
Yes. Wahroonga is about 35 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights, and we also work in St Ives and Pymble nearby.
What affects the price of roofs in Wahroonga?
Mostly tree canopy; heritage materials; older materials. We inspect first and give you a fixed price, itemised by surface.
Can you clean a slate roof without breaking slates?
We minimise foot traffic on slate, use roof ladders and padding, and photograph any existing damage before we start.
Do you work in Wahroonga heritage areas?
Yes, with gentle methods suited to original roofs, timber and stone.
Why don't you pressure clean roofs?
High pressure strips glaze, cracks slate, lifts coatings and pushes water under the tiles. A treatment kills the growth at the root without any of that.
