More Than a Rinse — a Proper Clean That Lasts

High pressure cleaning is one of the most effective ways to extend the life of your roof, gutters and exterior surfaces — but only when it is done correctly. At SIA Roofing, our high pressure cleaning service is carried out by experienced roofing tradespeople, not general labourers with a hired machine. We adjust water pressure to suit your specific roofing material, whether that is terracotta tiles, concrete, Colorbond or slate, so the clean removes contaminants without lifting or cracking anything underneath. Because we also handle roof repairs, replacements and maintenance, we inspect your roof while we are up there and flag anything that needs attention before it becomes a costly problem.

What our high pressure cleaning covers

A Complete Clean for Every Surface We Touch

Roof tile cleaning — terracotta, concrete and slate
We remove moss, lichen, algae and embedded grime that trap moisture and accelerate tile deterioration.
Colorbond and metal roof cleaning
Low-to-medium pressure settings protect the paint finish while clearing dirt, bird droppings and organic growth.
Ridge cap and valley cleaning
Debris accumulates in roof valleys and around ridge caps — we clear these areas to restore proper water flow.

How Our High Pressure Cleaning Service Works

Free quote and site assessment

We visit your property, assess the roofing material, the extent of moss or dirt build-up, and the roof's overall condition before recommending the right approach.

Surface preparation

We clear loose debris by hand and apply a pre-treatment solution to heavily affected areas of moss and lichen so the pressure wash achieves a deeper, longer-lasting result.

Pressure washing at the correct setting

Our team uses calibrated equipment set to the appropriate pressure for your specific roofing material — protecting the surface while removing every layer of contamination.

Debris removal and site clean-up

All dislodged moss, dirt and organic matter is collected and removed from your property so your gutters and downpipes are not overwhelmed after the job.

High Pressure Cleaning — Common Questions

How often should I have my roof high pressure cleaned?

For most Melbourne properties, a thorough roof clean every two to three years is sufficient to keep moss, lichen and dirt under control. Properties surrounded by large trees or in areas with heavy rainfall may benefit from more frequent cleaning. We can advise the right schedule for your specific roof after an inspection.

Will high pressure cleaning damage my roof tiles?

Not when it is done by experienced roofing tradespeople using the correct equipment settings. We adjust the water pressure to match your roofing material — terracotta, concrete, slate and Colorbond all require different approaches. Using excessive pressure on the wrong surface is a common mistake made by non-specialist operators, which is why we use calibrated machines and trained staff.

Can you clean a roof that already has cracked or broken tiles?
