Roof Washing for Northern Beaches Homes
Shady gums, salt air and humid summers make the Northern Beaches a perfect spot for lichen, moss and black algae to take hold on roofs. Left alone, it spreads across the tiles, holds moisture and makes the whole house look tired.
We clean roofs with a soft wash: a low-pressure treatment that kills lichen, moss and algae at the root instead of blasting the surface. No high pressure means no cracked tiles, no stripped coatings and no water forced up under the tiles.
We clean terracotta and concrete tiled roofs and metal roofs right across the Northern Beaches, from Manly and Balgowlah to Newport and Avalon.

How Our Roof Washing Works
Here’s what happens on the day:
- Check the roof:
We look at the roof type and condition, how much lichen, moss or algae there is, and anything that needs extra care, like skylights. - Protect the surrounds:
We take care of plants and outdoor furniture before any treatment goes on. - Soft wash treatment:
The treatment is applied at low pressure to kill the growth at the root, without damaging tiles, pointing or coatings. - Rinse and final check:
We rinse down, tidy up and check the result with you before we leave.
Want the whole place done at once? Add a house wash or window clean to the same visit.
Benefits of Professional Roof Cleaning
Lichen and moss hold moisture against your tiles. Removing them helps your roof last longer.
A clean roof enhances the look of your Northern Beaches home, perfect for pre-sale or ongoing maintenance.
Killing growth at the root means it takes longer to come back than a quick pressure clean.
No high pressure on your roof, so no cracked tiles or stripped coatings.
Avoid the dangers of DIY roof cleaning with our professional, safe service.
