Frequently Asked Questions
What is roof cleaning?
Roof cleaning uses high-pressure equipment to remove dirt, moss, algae, lichen and buildup from your roof surface, restoring its appearance and helping to maintain its structural integrity and lifespan.
What types of roofs can you clean?
We clean tile, cement, terracotta, metal and Colorbond roofs — on both residential and commercial properties across Melbourne.
Is roof cleaning safe for my roof?
Yes. Our team is trained to use the right pressure and technique for each roof type so your tiles or metal are cleaned thoroughly without damage.
What are the benefits of professional roof cleaning?
Regular professional cleaning removes moss, algae and lichen that trap moisture and wear down your roof, helps maintain its structural integrity and lifespan, restores a clean streak-free finish, and prepares the surface for painting or sealing.
Do you clean the gutters too?
Yes — we can clear out your gutters as part of a roof clean so water flows freely and doesn’t overflow into your eaves.
Can a clean roof lower my energy bills?
It can help. A dirty roof traps heat, so a clean roof reflects more sunlight away from your home — keeping it cooler in summer and easing your air-conditioning costs. A fresh, well-presented roof also lifts kerb appeal and resale value.
Do Colorbond roofs need cleaning?
Yes. Colorbond collects dirt, lichen and moss over time — especially on shaded sections — which dulls the finish and can hold moisture against the surface. A professional clean restores the look, lets us spot rust or fastener issues early, and prepares the surface if you’re considering repainting. We clean metal and Colorbond roofs across Melbourne, for homes and businesses.
What is terracotta glazing and how much does it cost?
For terracotta roofs only, glazing is an optional extra step after the clean: a specialised hi-gloss coating that restores the tiles’ colour and shine and seals them against water. As a guide it costs $420 to $625 per roof (ex GST), takes about 30 minutes to apply, and is done straight after the clean on the same day. We confirm whether your roof would benefit as part of the free inspection.
How do I clean a Colorbond roof?
Carefully — the wrong pressure can damage the finish, and walking a metal roof safely takes experience. Our team uses the right pressure and technique for each roof type, plus a chemical treatment that stops algae growing back. Given the safety risk of working at height, we recommend a professional clean — it’s fast, safe and leaves a streak-free finish.
