Every year
Shaded blocks, south facing walls and anywhere under trees. Growth comes back fastest where the sun never reaches.
Pressure cleaning in Brisbane goes wrong the same way every time: full pressure on render, paint or timber strips the surface along with the grime.
So we pre-treat the growth and use low pressure on anything painted or soft, while concrete and pavers still get real pressure. A single driveway is $240 including GST, and you get a photo report when we finish.
Driveways and paths, patios and pool surrounds, decks and fences, plus single storey house walls. Homes, units, strata and commercial sites.
Every surface is checked first. Loose mortar, cracked coatings and perished seals all change the method, and we would rather find them before we start than after.
Roofs, gutters and solar panels are quoted. We soft wash roofs at low pressure, clean out gutters and clean solar panels, each priced once we have seen the roof and the access.
Indoor tiles are a different job. See tile and grout cleaning in Brisbane.
Shade decides this more than anything else.
Shaded blocks, south facing walls and anywhere under trees. Growth comes back fastest where the sun never reaches.
Open, sunny properties with good drainage. It keeps the concrete from going permanently grey.
A week before photos, not the day before. A clean driveway and front path change a listing photo for little money.
Four stages. The first one is the one most often skipped.
A wash that skips the pre-treatment relies on force alone, which is why the green can come back before the next summer.
Step 01
Rough square metres and the surface. Photos help.
Step 02
We confirm when the crew will arrive before the day.
Step 03
Pre-treatment goes on first, then the wash at the right pressure for each surface.
Step 04
We go over it with you before packing up, and our cleaners don't leave until you're happy with the work.
Brisbane is warm and wet through summer, and mould, algae and lichen grow on outside surfaces that stay damp.
So the method changes with the surface: pressure on concrete, low pressure and pre-treatment on anything painted or soft.
Four things you get on every job.
Full pressure on render, paint or timber can strip the coating and fur the grain.
We pre-treat and wash those surfaces at low pressure instead.
Loose mortar, a cracked coating or a perished seal can turn a clean into a repair bill.
Anything we find gets flagged before we start, with a photo, and you decide what happens next.
Measure the area and you can work out the figure yourself from the table below.
Heavy oil or lichen can move it, and we confirm before we start.
Before and after photos are sent to you when we finish.
Useful if you are not home, or if you are preparing a property for sale.
Water under pressure can do real damage to a house.

It can. Full pressure lifts paint, pits render and furs timber, which is why we wash those surfaces at low pressure after pre-treating the growth.
Force alone moves growth without treating it, so it returns sooner. Pre-treatment and dwell time are what make the difference.
Yes. We use your outdoor tap and a power point, so please make sure both are working on the day. If either is a problem, tell us when you book.
Yes. Roof soft washing, gutter cleaning and solar panel cleaning are quoted after we see the property, because height, pitch and access set the price. Driveways, paths, patios, decks and single storey walls are priced from the table above.
Yes. Carparks, hardstand and loading docks, scheduled before opening from 6am or in the evening until 10pm.
Yearly on shaded blocks and anywhere under trees, and every two years on open, sunny properties.

We stay until it's right
Our cleaners don't leave until you're happy with the work. For end of lease cleans, if you're not satisfied and tell us within 72 hours, we come back and re-clean.
Tell us the rough area and the surface. A photo gets you a firmer number.
