Dirt, mould and pollution make a building look older than it is, and they shorten the life of the paint underneath. A proper façade wash every couple of years keeps a building looking well kept and extends the time between repaints.
We clean façades from the rope, so the whole building can be reached without booms or swing stages. The pressure, nozzle and cleaning solution are matched to the surface, because what cleans concrete will damage soft render or painted cladding.
Washing is also the first step of every repaint we do, so the new coating bonds to a clean surface.

Questions about building washing and pressure cleaning
How often should a strata building be washed?
Every one to three years is typical, depending on the location, exposure and colour. Coastal and tree-shaded buildings usually need it more often.
Will pressure cleaning damage render or paint?
Not when it is done at the right pressure with the right nozzle. We test first and use soft-washing methods on delicate surfaces.
Do residents need to do anything?
Close windows and move items off balconies near the work. We notify residents through the building manager before we start each elevation.
