Roof cleaning for Freshwater homes
Freshwater is in the Northern Beaches Council area, about 25 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. The older homes next door have timber, brick and terracotta.
Salt and damp near the ocean 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 Freshwater
For most Freshwater 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 Freshwater
- Salt exposure: heavier salt build-up can need a pre-rinse and a second pass on glass and metal.
- Older materials: soft brick, original pointing and old paint mean gentler, slower methods.
- Steep access: carrying gear down stairs and running long hoses adds time.
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.

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.
