Skylight cleaning for Freshwater homes
Freshwater is in the Northern Beaches Council area, about 25 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. Freshwater, still called Harbord by many locals, sits above its own beach between Queenscliff and Curl Curl. When a Freshwater cottage is replaced, the new home usually has rendered walls, big glass and a pool.
Salt from the ocean settles on skylight glass where the rain doesn't reach, and the film builds up faster than on vertical windows.
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.
Freshwater, still called Harbord by many locals, sits above its beach between Queenscliff and Curl Curl. The streets around Lawrence Street and Albert Street hold Federation and inter-war cottages, many rebuilt as large modern homes with big glass, and streets near the headland catch salt spray on onshore days.
How often in Freshwater
For most Freshwater homes, skylight cleaning is worth doing every 4 to 6 months. Salt settles on sloping glass that rain doesn't rinse.

Working in Freshwater
Blocks slope towards the beach, so many homes have stairs, terraced gardens and downhill windows high above the ground. Older cottages next door to new houses have timber windows, and we clean each kind with the method it needs.
Our method
How we handle skylights
Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy.
Step 01 of 04
Plan safe access
From the ground with the pole where possible. Roof access only where it is safe, with the right equipment.
He was professional, responsive, and delivered exactly as promised.
Step 02 of 04
Clear debris
Leaves, twigs and nests around the upstand are removed by hand so water drains away.
Great work, fair pricing, and excellent communication.
Step 03 of 04
Brush and rinse
Soft brush and pure water on the glass or polycarbonate, then a final rinse.
Excellent service! Nathan is punctual and nothing is a problem.
Step 04 of 04

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.

How often should skylight cleaning be done in Freshwater?
For most Freshwater homes, every 4 to 6 months. Salt settles on sloping glass that rain doesn't rinse.
Do you offer skylight cleaning across Freshwater?
Yes. Freshwater is about 25 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights, and we also work in Queenscliff and Curl Curl nearby.
Do new Freshwater homes with big glass need more frequent cleaning?
Near the beach, yes. Large panes facing the ocean show salt within weeks, so every three months suits most.
Can you clean timber windows on an older Freshwater cottage?
Yes, by hand and gently, with water kept off the putty and paint.
Can you clean polycarbonate roofing?
Yes, with a soft brush and pure water only. No scrapers and no solvents.
My skylight is cloudy even after cleaning. Why?
Older acrylic domes craze and go cloudy right through with UV. That is damage, and cleaning can't fix it.
Do you clear leaves around skylights?
Yes. Debris around the upstand is cleared before washing so water drains properly.
