Exterior cleaning in St Ives, where the bush is the back fence. Postwar brick, ranch-style homes and new builds line up against Ku-ring-gai Chase, and every one shares a boundary with a national park that never stops shedding.
A block that backs onto the bush collects more than its share. Leaf litter packs the gutters, cobwebs string the eaves, and the shaded south walls grow a green coat faster than almost anywhere else on the shore. Bush-edge grime really is its own category of work.
We soft-wash the brick and render rather than blasting it, clear the gutters and roof of everything the canopy has dropped, and knock the cobwebs off the eaves. Every job is done to the Schmick Standard and photographed against a checklist, so you can see the before and after without leaving the deck. Build your instant quote while there is room on the run.
One crew, one Standard. 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.

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.

Meet Jake. He runs Schmick jobs in St Ives, 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.
See the Plan“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. Schmick works right across St Ives, from the bush-edge blocks off Killeaton St to the newer builds backing onto Ku-ring-gai Chase. If your fence line is the national park, we know the drill.
Start with the quote builder above. It prices your place in about a minute. Bush-edge blocks vary a lot. If anything needs a closer look, we say so at the door before any work starts.
The bush edge is the reason. Ku-ring-gai Chase keeps the canopy dense, so the south walls stay damp and shaded and the green takes hold. We soft-wash it off and treat the surface, so it stays gone longer than a week.
Yes. House soft wash, windows, gutters, roof, driveway and the cobwebbed eaves all go into one visit with one crew, photographed against the checklist, and most St Ives blocks are done in a day.
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.
