Woollahra runs on Victorian terraces, and most of them are overdue for a house wash. The frontages carry iron lace along the balconies and painted heritage facades below, the kind of detail the antique dealers on Queen St would appreciate, and a lot of them are holding a decade of city grime.
The problem builds slowly. Painted render dulls under traffic film off the main roads, the lacework traps grime in every scroll and curl, and the side passage between one terrace and the next never sees the sun, so that is where the green grows thickest. A garden hose does not get far against any of it.
We soft wash heritage facades, because the pressure that cleans a driveway will strip old paint and open up mortar. Lace, render and sandstone get low pressure and patience instead. Every job is photographed against a checklist, so you can see the before and after for yourself. Build your instant quote and we will tell you what actually needs doing.
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 Woollahra, 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, all of it. We work the terraces around Queen St and Holdsworth St regularly, and the quieter streets behind them just as often.
Build your quote right here on the page. The number lands in about a minute. Every terrace is different once you count the lace, the render and the side passage. If the place is more work than it looks from the kerb, we say so before we start.
No, because we do not blast it. Painted facades and lacework get a soft wash at low pressure. It lifts the city grime without stripping paint or loosening old mortar.
Yes. Facade, windows, iron lace, gutters and that sunless side passage in one booking. All worked to the Schmick Standard and photographed against a checklist when we finish.
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.
