Southern Suburbs
Green on the south wall, grey-green crust on the roof, concrete that has changed colour — in Westbrook that is the climate, not neglect. This is the high southern end of the city — coldest, dampest, longest dew. Exactly the climate mould, algae and lichen want. $20 million public liability, Working at Heights certified, police-checked crew and a signed SWMS on every site.
Why us here
We work Westbrook regularly, so a quote rarely means a long wait. What matters most is method: concrete, pavers and brickwork take pressure cleaning; render, paint, weatherboard, Colorbond and roofs take soft washing, where the treatment kills mould and lichen at the root rather than blasting the surface off. Firm price before we start, photos when it is done.
Local conditions here
Black Vertosol · red Ferrosol on rises
Black cracking clay here. It does not stain concrete the way red soil does, but it holds moisture at the base of walls and along the shaded side of a slab, and that is where the mould starts.
This is the high southern end of the city — coldest, dampest, longest dew. Exactly the climate mould, algae and lichen want.
Westbrook is a semi-rural suburb southwest of the city on the black-soil plain — generous house blocks through to acreage, with sheds, tanks and long driveways as standard.
Through the year
What the walls and concrete are telling you
Green or black film on the south and east walls is mould, not dirt — it needs a treatment, not a blast. Grey-green crust on the roof is lichen, bonded into the tile. Water spilling over a gutter edge is going into the fascia. A driveway that has changed colour is this ground at work. Streaky glass is mineral film. A solar array quietly making less than it used to is usually just soiled.
Most often in Westbrook: roof cleaning, exterior house washing, soft washing. Also gutter cleaning, driveway and path cleaning, window cleaning. Book several in one visit — cheaper, and the order matters: roof, gutters, walls, then windows.
