Founding Streets open in Tamarama 2026
Tamarama sits fully open to the sea, and that salt film settles on your array fast. Solar panel cleaning here is about getting the yield back, not just the shine.

Solar panel cleaning in Tamarama fights a losing battle with the ocean, and the ocean never rests. The cliffside homes and apartments above Tama take full exposure on three sides, so the glass hazes over within a week of a rinse. That film is thin enough to ignore and thick enough to tax every panel on the roof.
We clean with deionised water and soft brushes. No pressure near the seals, nothing abrasive on the glass, no chemical residue baking on in the afternoon sun. Salt lifts, the panels dry to a clear finish, and the yield climbs back to where it should be. On a beachfront array that difference shows up on the next bill.
Every visit is photographed against the checklist, so you see the state of the array before and after without climbing up to look. Put your address into the instant quote and you will have a firm price in about a minute.
Every panel checked against the list before we call it done. Here is the finish it is done to.
Soft brush and pure water only. No film, no streaking, glass left clear to the edge.
Lifted off, not smeared. Baked-on spots worked until the glass is clean, never scraped.
Rinsed with de-ionised water so it dries spot-free. No mineral marks left behind.
Grime cleared from the aluminium seams where dust packs in and holds moisture.
Leaf litter and debris cleared from the gaps so water and air move as they should.
Checked for shading build-up. Corners cleaned so no cell sits in the shade of its own dirt.
None. No detergents, no acids. Nothing that voids a panel warranty or films the glass.
Every array photographed against the checklist at close. Cracks or faults flagged, not touched.
Meet Jake. He runs Schmick jobs in Tamarama, 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 cover the whole pocket around Tama, from the homes above the beach to the apartments off Gaerloch Ave and Fletcher St. The exposed rooftops here are exactly the ones that need it.
Put your address into the instant quote and you get a firm, bookable price in about 60 seconds. The price holds unless the array is materially bigger or different from what you told us. No inspection visit to schedule first.
More often than most of Sydney. With salt haze settling weekly on a fully exposed roof, a clean every three to four months keeps the film from stealing yield. Homes right on the point may want it sooner.
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.
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.
