Skylight cleaning for Castlecrag homes
Castlecrag is in the Willoughby City Council area, about 40 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. Castlecrag was designed by Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin to sit within the sandstone and bush above Middle Harbour.
Skylights and roof lanterns on older homes are often later additions to slate or terracotta roofs, which are fragile. We clean from the ground or a ladder rather than walking those roofs.
On steep blocks the roofline can be a long way above the ground on the downhill side. We plan the reach from the uphill side where possible.
Skylights under trees collect leaves, twigs and sap all year. Leaves packed against the upstand hold water and can block the flashing.
Castlecrag was designed by Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin to sit within the sandstone and bush above Middle Harbour. The Griffin houses are built of local sandstone and much of the suburb is heritage-protected, with newer homes following strict design rules. Windows here are often original steel or timber, set deep into stone.
How often in Castlecrag
For most Castlecrag homes, skylight cleaning is worth doing every 3 to 4 months. Leaves and sap land on the glass all year.

Working in Castlecrag
We use the gentlest effective method on Castlecrag homes: by hand on original frames, pure water on newer glass, and rinse water kept out of the bush and off the stone. Steep sites mean we plan access around the rock.

Excellent service! Nathan is punctual and nothing is a problem.

Nathan just completed a pressure wash of our travertine pavers under our alfresco area, around the pool and the sundeck. What an absolutely fantastic job. Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy. We will certainly be calling him back on a regular basis and can highly recommend him.
Nathan provided a reliable and professional property maintenance. Great work, fair pricing, and excellent communication. Highly recommend!
Nathan did a great job washing the external sides of our house. The weatherboard was dirty and had cobwebs. Nathan went above and beyond our expectations, the house was perfectly clean and all the cobwebs were gone.

For most Castlecrag homes, every 3 to 4 months. Leaves and sap land on the glass all year.
Do you offer skylight cleaning across Castlecrag?
Yes. Castlecrag is about 40 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights, and we also work in Northbridge and Roseville nearby.
Can you clean windows on a Griffin house in Castlecrag?
Yes, gently. Original frames are cleaned by hand, and we keep water off the sandstone and joinery.
Do you keep water out of the bush?
Yes. Pure water carries no detergent, and we still direct run-off away from bushland.
Do you clear leaves around skylights?
Yes. Debris around the upstand is cleared before washing so water drains properly.
How often should skylights be cleaned?
Once or twice a year for most homes, and every three to four months under trees or near the coast.
Do you need to get on the roof?
Usually not. Most skylights are cleaned from the ground or a ladder with the water-fed pole. We only go on a roof where it is safe.
