Hunters Hill homes and what they need
The Hunters Hill peninsula sits between the Lane Cove and Parramatta rivers, with Woolwich at its tip. Streets like Alexandra Street, Woolwich Road and Ferry Street are lined with nineteenth-century sandstone cottages and villas, many built by the Joubert brothers and their stonemasons.
Almost the whole suburb is protected by heritage controls. The stone is local, soft and weathered, and on many houses it has never been cleaned, only patched.
Cleaning stone that's 150 years old
Old sandstone has a weathered skin that protects the softer stone behind it. Blast through that skin and the wall starts to erode. We clean heritage stone with a stone-safe treatment for mould and lichen, a fine low pressure rinse and plenty of patience. Some walls get two gentle passes rather than one hard one.
We don't remove the patina of age. The aim is to take off black biological growth and grime so the stone looks cared for, not new.
Garden walls and front fences
Sandstone front fences and garden walls along the street get the most dirt and the least attention. They're also the part of the house everyone walks past. We clean them to match the house so the whole property reads as one.

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.

Straight answers before you book. Can't see yours? Call Nathan on 0416 007 745.
Still have a question?
Talk to Nathan directly. He quotes and attends every job himself.
Can 19th-century sandstone be cleaned safely?
Yes, with low pressure and a stone-safe treatment, tested on a hidden area first. We never use high pressure on heritage stone.
Will cleaning remove the aged look of my house?
No. We remove black mould, lichen and grime, not the natural patina of the stone.
Do I need Hunter's Hill Council approval?
Routine cleaning usually doesn't. If you're unsure, check with council's heritage team and we'll follow any conditions.
Should heritage sandstone walls be sealed?
Usually not. Old walls need to breathe. We may recommend a breathable sealer for paving, but rarely for heritage walls.
Do you clean Woolwich waterfront homes?
Yes. We take care to keep runoff out of the river.
