House Washing Melbourne
A complete exterior wash for your home — dirt, mould, cobwebs and grime safely removed from weatherboard, brick, render and cladding.
Melbourne homes get dirty in a particular way: southern walls that never fully dry grow mould and algae, render holds the west's clay dust, weatherboards collect cobwebs and traffic film, and it all happens so gradually most owners stop seeing it. A proper house wash is the fastest, cheapest transformation your home's exterior can get — most owners are startled by the colour their house actually is.
We wash the full exterior — walls, eaves, fascias, downpipes and trims — using soft washing on delicate surfaces like render, painted weatherboard and cladding, and appropriate pressure on brick and hard surfaces. The mould and algae are killed, not just rinsed, so walls stay cleaner for longer. Exterior mould growth is more than cosmetic: Better Health Victoria notes mould around the home is worth taking seriously, and the exterior is where it starts.
Washing is also maintenance. Paint lasts longer on clean surfaces, render stays sound when growth isn't working into it, and if you're preparing to sell, a washed exterior is the highest-return day of work you can buy.

How It Works
Walk-around & quote
We confirm surfaces, storeys and problem areas — quotes by phone or from a few photos, fixed before we start.
Soft wash & rinse
Cleaning solutions break down dirt and kill growth, then everything is rinsed at a pressure each surface can handle.
Detail & check
Corners, eaves and trims are detailed, and we walk the job with you (or send photos) before we leave.
What Drives the Price
House washing is quoted on size and storeys, surface type (render and delicate surfaces take more care than brick), how much growth has established, and access around the property. A single-storey brick veneer is the simplest job; a double-storey rendered home on a tight block with established mould takes properly longer.
You'll get a fixed quote up front — phone 0414 078 847 or send photos of each side of the house and we'll price it from those.
Common Questions
Is house washing safe for painted weatherboards and render?
Yes — that's exactly what soft washing exists for. Delicate surfaces get low pressure and the right cleaning solutions; the grime is dissolved rather than blasted.
Will you get rid of the mould on the south side of the house?
Yes, and more importantly the treatment kills the growth rather than just rinsing the surface, so it takes much longer to come back.
How long does a house wash take?
Most single-storey homes are done in a morning or afternoon; larger or double-storey homes can take a full day.
How often should I wash my house exterior?
Every 1–2 years keeps most Melbourne homes in good shape. Shaded or south-facing homes, and anything near main roads or the bay, sit at the shorter end.
