Specialising in gentle roof cleaning with all of the technical and at height know-how,
we love nothing more than to do a 'before & after' on your roof. 

Home Roof
​Cleaning

The team really enjoy and specialise in home roof cleaning in Ballina and the Ballina hinterland.  We utilise great equipment that makes the task ergonomic and our customers are always really happy with conspicuous value for money (with often unbelievable results possible).  Important steps in setting-up our equipment have been made, in order for the cleaning process to have as little wear and tear as is possible and give the absolute best result.  Corrugated iron roof cleaning and tin roof cleaning often clean-up the easiest yet can often lose oxidised paint if they're a bit old; tiled roof cleaning is also very rewarding, particularly if you have a mould covered roof.  For clients who are concerned about the age of the sealant or paint, before and during cleaning, we’re able to advise you if the surface will require a roof paint in the future and are able to offer you a  competitive quote for quality roof paint on the same day if it's of interest.  

Commercial Roof Cleaning

Commercial roof cleaning in Byron Bay, Ballina or Lismore for example, is something that many businesses consider at one time or another.  Due to the proximity of much of the Northern Rivers population to either salty air near beaches or dusty air nearer to farmlands, there is good reason to get a large commercial roof cleaned for preventative maintenance reasons.  Roof manufacturers, painters and even roof paint companies recommend periodically pressure cleaning roofs and other surfaces.  By gently pressure cleaning a roof with mould spores or a constant dust layer, it enables the paint to breath and can prolong the life of a structure.  Obviously on a large scale this can mean roof cleaning a commercial building can be a very wise preventative measure.  We work with the largest whirl-away units and pressure pumps on the market for these purposes and can offer the economy of scale to any business looking for a roof cleaning quote.

Safe Roof Cleaning Methods

How do you safely clean a roof in Ballina or surrounds?  There are several techniques to clean a roof, or complete roof mould removal.  Each team member is firstly anchored to the roof using ropes and a fall arrest harness – meaning that if they were to slip, the rope and harness is capable of catching their body weight.  Our safety methods have been discussed and approved by Ballina Workplace Safety officials.  Then, either a pressure wand or whirl-away machine is attached to the high pressure hose dragged-up onto the roof.  Depending on the pitch and grip the roof offers, we’re able to select which piece of equipment we utilise that best cleans the dirt or mould from the roof.  All roof cleans are quoted with a gutter flush (although, for badly clogged gutters an extra charge is made (made known to you) for spooning-out the mud or foliage from inside the gutters).  And finally, standard practice after the roof and gutters have been cleaned, is to thoroughly rinse the walls, paths, windows and general area from the dirt or mould cleaned off the roof.

Roof Cleaning costs and quoting

Roof cleaning quotes in Ballina and the Northern Rivers are straight forward, whether it’s a home or business.  Roof cleaning quotes are fixed prices, upon a formal inspection and measurement. In some instances due to age or state of the roof, it may require re-sealing and painting after it has been pressure cleaned as the nature of the pressure required to clean a roof can also effect how watertight it will be following the work. We will always make you aware of this where this is the case and offer a competitive quote on roof painting if requested.  To quote a roof cleaning job we utilise a laser measurer to give us an accurate square meter total of the roof or we can also measure it very accurately using a satellite image. This is then multiplied by the corresponding rate.  Anywhere from $3-$5/m2 (before GST) is possible, with the bulk of roof cleaning quotes somewhere in the lower range.  The rate is adjusted according to set-up factors, severity of clean required, pitch of the roof and other aspects, like if additional safety measures are a legal requirement.

I highly recommend R&P. I engaged them to wash windows in my complicated three level house as well as doing high pressure cleaning of stone paving and the concrete drive.  He did an amazing job. He is organised, smart, efficient and flexible. When you see how quickly and efficiently he moved through the house and yard, it made me realise that I wouldn’t even bother trying to do this cleaning job again myself. The house looks like it’s had a total facelift. Total value for money. Merran Morrison

Before & After

Lucille required a full pressure clean from top to bottom whilst renovating an investment property in Mullumbimby. We started with the severely mouldy roof, which not only added instant value to her bottom line, it saved many thousands of dollars worth of paint deterioration down the track. 

Next the walls were gently cleaned with lowered pressure and So-Safe Soap, in order to clean the mould thoroughly, but not chip the paint away.  With the help of some old towels and Lucille's assistance, the old fashioned windows and doors that leaked a little were plugged in order to not cause any internal water marks and presto, the home looked like new again!  ​
