Founding Streets open in Roseville 2069
A house soft wash for Roseville's full-brick Federation homes. Low pressure and the right chemistry, so the green south wall the canopy grows dies at the root instead of coming straight back.

A house soft wash in Roseville is mostly the price of the trees. The deep blocks here sit under a serious canopy, and the same shade that makes the street worth living on keeps the brick damp for most of the day. By August the south wall of a full-brick Federation home wears a green film, and no amount of good weather shifts it on its own.
We wash it off with low pressure and the right chemistry. That matters on hundred-year-old brick and lime mortar, which were never built to take a pressure washer at close range. The mould and green growth die at the root instead of getting blasted off the face, so the wall stays clean rather than turning again by the next wet month. Painted timber and render get the same soft touch.
Pricing is the easy part. Put your address into the instant quote and a firm, bookable price comes back in about 60 seconds. It holds unless the place is materially different in person.
Every surface has its own finish spec. We work the house top to bottom and shoot the condition report against this list before we call it done.
Softened and rinsed back to a flat, even colour. No streaks, no chalky residue, no pressure marks scored into the coat.
Mould and grime drawn out of the joints and the face without blasting the mortar. Brick back to its real colour, not a wet-looking fake clean.
Each board washed with the grain and the laps cleared. Paint left intact, no lifted edges, no water forced behind the timber.
Cobwebs, dirt lines and the shaded-side mould cleared. The underside looks as clean as the wall it meets.
Fronts washed back to a clean line so the roofline reads sharp from the street. Tiger stripes gone.
Exterior glass and sills rinsed clear of the wash so no film is left behind. Frames wiped down where the soft wash reaches.
Dirt and mould shadowing cleared so the fittings sit quiet against a clean wall, not standing out grey.
Splash and runoff rinsed off paths and plants. Gardens flushed with water, no chemical left sitting at the base of the wall.
Meet Jake. He runs Schmick jobs in Roseville, 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. We work the deep-block streets under the canopy regularly, Bancroft Ave included. Full-brick Federation homes with a green south wall are our most common Roseville job.
Put your address into the instant quote and a firm, bookable price comes back in about 60 seconds. Nobody comes out to look first, and the price holds unless the house turns out materially different in person.
The canopy keeps that wall shaded and damp, so mould and green growth root into the brick and regrow after any surface clean. A soft wash kills it at the root, and under this much tree cover a wash every 12 to 18 months keeps it from re-establishing.
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.
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.
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.
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.
