Professional roof soft washing that removes moss, lichen and algae without high-pressure damage. It extends your roof’s life and brings the colour back, safely.
Moss, lichen and algae don’t just look bad. They hold moisture against the roof and break down tiles, coatings and flashings over time. High-pressure cleaning can crack tiles, strip Colorbond paint and force water where it shouldn’t go. We use a soft wash treatment instead. It’s gentler, safer, and it works properly.
The treatment kills the growth down to the root, then it’s rinsed off at low pressure. The result is a clean roof that stays clean for longer, with the paint and tiles intact. Gutters and downpipes can be cleared in the same visit, so the whole roof system is sorted at once.
A professional-grade treatment goes on at low pressure and does the heavy lifting. Lichen releases its grip and rinses away instead of being torn off with the surface.
Colorbond’s paint is its protection. We never put a high-pressure tip near it, so the coating you paid for stays where it belongs.
Concrete tiles get the same gentle approach, with extra attention on valleys and ridge caps where growth and debris collect.
Most roof jobs include a full gutter clear and downpipe flush, so everything that comes off the roof leaves the property with us.

I can highly recommend Jack. He is very personable and listened to me in regards to issues related to lichen on my roof. Jack investigated options and fully explained the process involved. Jack communicates well and keeps you in the loop. Again, I highly recommend his services.

Excellent work Very good service Very happy customer And everything was cleaned up afterwards. Fantastic job.
No. Soft washing uses a low-pressure treatment, not high-pressure water. It’s safe for concrete tiles, and for Colorbond and metal roofs. We never use methods that can crack, break or strip roof materials.
It depends on the roof size, pitch and how much moss or lichen there is. Most homes in Greater Hobart fall between $600 and $1,500. We come out and give you a fixed price before any work starts, free.
With a soft wash treatment, regrowth is slowed right down. Most roofs stay clean for 18 months to 3 years depending on shade and trees. A maintenance plan keeps it that way without you having to remember.
Yes. Colorbond is best cleaned with soft wash methods, not high pressure, which can strip the protective paint. The treatment removes lichen and grime without touching the colour coating.
Yes. Clearing the gutters and flushing the downpipes in the same visit means everything that comes off the roof is dealt with, and your drainage works properly afterwards.
