Frenchs Forest 2086

Sandstone cleaning for Frenchs Forest homes

Frenchs Forest is in the Northern Beaches Council area, about 20 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. Frenchs Forest is a leafy suburb of family homes on big blocks, bordered by Garigal National Park and Davidson Park.

Shaded sandstone grows black mould and green algae quickly. We treat the growth and clean at low pressure so the stone keeps its face.

How often in Frenchs Forest

For most Frenchs Forest homes, sandstone is worth doing every 12 months. Shade, leaf litter and damp bring growth back sooner.

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 Frenchs Forest?

For most homes in Frenchs Forest, every 12 months. Homes under trees need it more often.

Do you offer sandstone across Frenchs Forest?

Yes. Frenchs Forest is about 20 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights, and we also work in Davidson and Belrose nearby.

What affects the price of sandstone in Frenchs Forest?

Mostly the size of the area and the surfaces involved. We inspect first and give you a fixed price, itemised by surface.

Can you remove the orange or rust stains?

Iron staining often comes from inside the stone. It can usually be lightened a lot with a specific treatment, though some natural banding is part of the stone.

Is it safe for heritage sandstone?

We test first and use the gentlest method that works. If a council heritage officer has specific requirements, we follow them.

How long does clean sandstone stay clean?

Unsealed, about one to two years in a shaded coastal garden. Sealed, it stays cleaner for longer and the next clean is quicker.
