We have been Roof Cleaning Alderley and the surrounding suburbs for years.
There are different way and techniques of Roof Cleaning which we will explain in further detail.
SOFTWASH ROOF CLEANING Alderley
The Softwashing technique is a technique that has been carried out in the USA for over 20 years as the leading way to clean roofs and buildings. While it is gaining popularity with operators and customers in Australia and especially Queensland (due to our humidity and mould) it is still quite new to the Australian roof washing landscape. Zen Property Maintenance have some of the most advanced Softwash equipment in Australia, and we have been Softwash Roof Cleaning Alderley homes for years.
Softwash Roof Cleaning is seen as the correct way of cleaning a roof as per many manufacturers guidelines state. In fact, some manufacturers of roofing materials void the warranty of the roof if a softwash is not employed when cleaning your roof.
Soft washing as the name suggests is a process were a mild mixed solution is applied to your roof with little more then garden hose pressure. It is left to work on the mould and lichen sometimes depending on the area to be treated agitation may need to be applied then the solution is washed off at low pressure. This is diverted away from your downpipes and the stormwater system.
The effect is instantaneous and results are astounding.

House Washing Alderley
House Washing Alderley is something we are very proud of. We absolutely love making South East Queensland shine. We have been House Washing Alderley and the surrounding suburbs for years. There are different type of House Washing though and we will discuss them now.
Softwash House washing Alderley
Softwashing is a process whereby a low pressure non abrasive chemical is applied to the house, roof, building or even flat work like driveways or paths. The solution is left for a short period of time to do its work then washed off again with low pressure.
Soft washing has been used in America since the 80's and in Australia for around 20 years though only recently has it been adopted a little more widely as it is extremely effective as removing dirty, mould, fungus, lichen, wasp nest, spider webs, insect eggs and insect larvae without damaging the surface to be cleaned.
It is particularly relevant to Alderley, Brisbane and South East Queensland as our buildings are very commonly affected by Black Mould. This is due to the high humidity in the air. Black Mould can cause a host of medical problem for humans. If the mould is on your roof or eaves it is important to properly kill the mould spores that help it reproduce and continue to develop. This becomes even more of a concern in the event that you drink tank water that has just run off the roof that is covered in black mould or if you have Mouldy Eaves. If you have allergies and or breathing problems it is best to get the house mould treatment done as soon as possible.
The Softwash process kills the mould. Not only does this type of House and Building Washdown protect the building and painted surfaces from exposure to high water pressures but it also as mentioned, kills and removes mould spores, spider webs, wasp nests, insect nests and eggs that have been laid or attached to your house walls, eaves or other surfaces.
This is the ONLY method of cleaning recommended for Weatherboard and Timber houses like Queenslanders.
Weather Board House Washing or Timber House Washing needs to be done with a low pressure system to prevent water being forced into the house by high pressure washing.

HIGH PRESSURE House Washing Alderley
While we specialise in Softwash House Washing, we also provide High Pressure House Washing Alderley. High Pressure House Washing is more suited to brick or concrete buildings or rendered surfaces. High Pressure Building wash downs have been performed on Australian homes since high pressure cleaners were invented.
Sometimes we might recommend a two step process were by Mouldy Eaves or more delicate sections of the house are low pressure washed (Softwashed) and the harder wearing surfaces are high pressure cleaned.
High Pressure House Washing can be very effective at removing dirt and grime that has built up over the years. Salt too is another thing that if not periodically removed prematurely ages and rusts your building.

Gutter Cleaning Alderley
GUTTER CLEANING Alderley
We do Gutter Cleaning Alderley and the surrounding suburbs of the North Brisbane. It is important to regularly clean your gutters and downpipes. Regular or annual gutter cleaning reduces the need for premature gutter repairs or replacement. When your rain gutters are full the water cannot get away it fills up your gutters. This then flows over the front (bending your gutters) and sometimes it flows over the back of your gutters (into your builiding), which can lead to big repair bills and water damage.
Leaf litter and debris that is left in your gutters holds moisture and stops the gutters from drying. This rust the gutters prematurely. The other effect if you have tank water for drinking. It also taints and contaminates your drinking water.
Gutter cleaning can be a very dangerous job and there are many factors that make it so. The pitch of the roof or the build up of mould on your roof can make gutter cleanings especially dangerous to someone untrained.
Gutter cleaning also reduces the likelihood of having trees grow in your gutters that damage your building.
Not only do we clean the gutters, but your downpipes too. This is something that many gutter cleaning businesses do not do. We don't just break the top of the weeds growing in you gutters when we do a gutter clean. We remove the weed/tree from your gutters and downpipes entirely.

Gutter guards Removal Alderley
There are many many gutter guards, leaf guards and leaf mesh type products on the market. Some are gutter mesh type products made from aluminium, some are plastic, some are hedgehog type inserts, some are foam inserts and the list goes on.
THE REASON WE DO NOT RECOMMEND GUTTER GUARDS AND LEAF STOPPING PRODUCTS
Quite often they can catch more leaves and create a dam/barrier that catches other leaves and sticks. This then backs up the roof and rusts the roof underneath the leaves (see video on this page).
It is a common misconception that if you have gutter guards installed you will no longer need gutter cleaning. This is simply not the case. You still need to perform gutter cleans periodically, to clean the dust and dirt, pollen which passes through the system that sits in the bottom of your gutters.
They impede the flow of air to the gutter stopping it from drying out. This means that the seeds from bat and bird droppings that land on your roof now propagate and grow in your gutters (see photos and video).
They increase the cost of regular gutter cleaning as it increases the time taken to do a gutter clean on your premises. Depending on the installer you can end up with damage to your roof.
Most people have gutter guard type products installed to eliminate the need for gutter cleaning and to save money by not having to pay to get the gutters cleaned. Having gutter mesh or leaf stopping systems on your gutters are very expensive and ALMOST NEVER saves you money in the long term.
Almost all gutter guard type systems need to be attached to you house somehow and this generally means holes in your roof or gutters or both.
Eventually they WILL need to be removed as they rust or break and create considerable blockages or damage to your building. This can now be very expensive as not only does it all need removed all the screw etc need repaired and the holes from the screws sealed up to prevent water entering.
But don't believe what you read watch the video to the left and see for yourself
