Roof cleaning in Double Bay is a shade-and-salt problem. The rendered villas and courtyard homes behind the village sit tucked between walls and boutique apartments, so the sun never quite reaches the tiles, and the harbour keeps a fine coat of salt on everything above it. Moss and lichen take that as an invitation.
We soft wash terracotta, concrete tile and Colorbond, never blast them, so the ridge capping and the render below stay where they belong. The treatment keeps working after we leave, so the black streaks and green patches keep fading for weeks rather than growing straight back. Every roof is photographed against the checklist before we call it done.
Put your address into the instant quote and a firm, bookable price comes back in about 60 seconds. It holds unless your roof turns out materially different to what you told us.
Every roof gets checked against the same list before we call it done. Surface by surface, ridge to gutter line. This is the finish that passes.
Moss and clumped growth treated and softened, then lifted off the tile or sheet. No gouging. No scraping the surface bare.
The right treatment worked across the whole roof so the black streaks and lichen die back for good. They do not wash off the top and grow again.
Colorbond and metal soft washed at low pressure. The factory coating stays on the roof where it belongs. No blasting.
Old terracotta and concrete tiles cleaned without the pressure that cracks them. What went up sound comes down sound.
Growth and debris flushed out of the valleys and off the gutter line. Water runs where it should, not back under the tiles.
Downpipes, garden beds and paths watched and rinsed. The mess off the roof does not end up staining what is under it.
Clean roof left to dry out properly. A dry roof stays clean longer than a roof that never sees the sun.
Job-close photos shot ridge to gutter against the checklist. Broken tiles, failed pointing or rust flagged and referred to a roofing partner. We do not re-roof or repoint.
Meet Jake. He runs Schmick jobs in Double Bay, and the same person comes back each visit — no rotating crew, no call-centre between you and the work.
Booking a one-off? A couple of cleans a year adds up. The Schmick Plan folds the whole exterior into one monthly price and keeps it handled, so you never think about it again.

“Couldn’t fault them”
Had the windows and the driveway done. Turned up right on 8, finished before lunch, and the driveway honestly looks brand new. Same guy came back for the gutters last month and remembered our dog’s name. Couldn’t fault them.
“Should’ve done it years ago”
They sent me photos of what came out of our gutters. Revolting. Glad it’s gone. Lovely guys too.
“Came out after the storm”
We’re on their monthly plan. After that big blow in June they were out two days later and sorted everything without us having to chase. Worth it for that alone.
“Honest, which is rare”
Our sandstone wall had gone black and I’d assumed it was ruined. It’s come up beautifully. There was one damp patch he said needed a stone specialist rather than pretending he could fix it, which I appreciated. On time, tidy, very fair on price.
“Neighbours all asked who did it”
Windows are unreal. Two of the neighbours came over to ask who did them before the van had even left the street. Booking was easy and they text you when they’re on the way.
“10/10”
Got the whole outside done before we hosted Christmas. Mum asked if we’d had the place repainted. Showed up when they said, price was exactly what they quoted.
Yes. The village and the courtyard streets behind it, around William St, Ocean Ave and Bay St, are regular ground for us. Terracotta, concrete tile and Colorbond are all part of the job.

Shade and salt. Tucked behind the village, these roofs stay damp longer, and the harbour air keeps feeding the growth. The soft wash treatment keeps working after we leave, and most owners book a return every couple of years to stay ahead of it.
One crew, one visit. Book a single job or hand us the whole exterior.
Inside and out, tracks and screens. The squeegee line you can see from the street.
Render, brick and weatherboard brought back without blasting a thing. Ten years of grey, gone by lunch.
Cleared, flushed and photographed. The before you never wanted to see, and the after you will.
Pressure cleaned back to the day they were poured. Sealing available.
A film of grime is a tax on every panel. We take it off, quarterly, and your yield thanks you.
Salt and lichen lifted, the stone left to breathe. Heritage stone, done properly.
Timber, Colorbond and rendered fences washed back. The street side done first.
Tell us the address and what the street sees. The same person who would do the job gets back to you, not a call-centre.
