Driveway and path pressure cleaning in Killara is mostly a job about shade. These are some of the deepest blocks on the line, and the Grand Federation estates and interwar homes that sit on them come with big trees and bigger canopies. Under all that shade the surfaces never fully dry, so lichen takes hold on slate, moss creeps up the stone steps, and the concrete goes grey a shade at a time.
We clean concrete, pavers and stone back to their poured colour. Leaf stain lifts, oil shadows fade, and the grey film of years comes off the long driveway runs these estates tend to have. On slate and old stone steps we work at the pressure the material can take rather than the pressure that would pit it, and every finished surface is photographed against the checklist. If you want the tennis court surrounds and the front path to hold their colour through the next shaded winter, we can seal them before we pack up.

Every surface gets cleaned to a documented finish, then shot against the checklist in your condition report. This is what schmick means on concrete, pavers and stone.
Cleaned edge to edge at even pressure. No zebra stripes, no missed lanes. One flat, consistent tone across the whole slab.
Pre-treated where the car parks, then lifted. The dark stain under the sump goes back to matching the concrete around it.
The shaded run where mould sits gets treated and cleared. No grey-green ghost left behind on the return.
Rubber scuffs at the entry and turning point worked out. The apron reads clean, not scarred.
Surface cleaned and the weed and moss lifted out of the joints. Sand topped where the wash pulls it, so nothing sits loose.
Pressure matched to the surface so the finish comes up clean without pitting or etching the stone.
The strip against the garden, the steps, the path to the door. Cleaned in, not skipped. The line where clean meets garden is straight.
Once it is dry and clean, a penetrating seal goes on. Colour holds, water beads, and the next ten years of grey has nothing to grip.

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. We work Killara's deep-block streets regularly, among the grand estates around Springdale Rd. Long estate driveways and shaded stone steps are precisely the job this service exists for.

Blame the canopy. Big trees keep these deep blocks in near-constant shade, the slate and stone stay damp, and lichen and moss settle in for the long haul. A clean roughly once a year stays ahead of it, and sealing stretches that interval further.
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.
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.
Moss, lichen and mould lifted off tiles and Colorbond. Soft washed, never blasted.
Timber, Colorbond and rendered fences washed back. The street side done first.
