Sandstone cleaning for Clontarf homes
Clontarf is in the Northern Beaches Council area, about 30 minutes from our base in Elanora Heights. Many also have original sandstone seawalls and boatsheds at the water's edge. Most homes here were rebuilt or extended in the last 20 years, with big glass walls facing the harbour, limestone and travertine terraces and pools on the lowest level.
Salt crystallises inside sandstone as it dries, which can flake the face over time. Regular gentle cleaning and a breathable sealer slow that down.
Sandstone stairs on steep blocks are both access and hazard. We clean them from the top down and treat algae so they aren't slippery.
How often in Clontarf
For most Clontarf homes, sandstone is worth doing every 12 months. Salt and sand build up quickly this close to the water.
What affects the quote in Clontarf
- Waterfront: wash water near the shoreline may need to be contained and collected.
- Steep access: carrying gear down stairs and running long hoses adds time.
- Pools: run-off has to be kept out of the water, and coping is often a different stone from the terrace.
- Sandstone: low pressure and dwell time for the cleaner take longer than hard paving.
Every quote is fixed and itemised by surface after a quick inspection.

Do you clean seawalls?
We clean sandstone seawalls from the land side when the tide and access allow. Anything needing a boat or scaffold we'll assess on site.
Can sandstone be pressure cleaned?
Yes, at low pressure and after a chemical treatment. High pressure on its own damages the surface and makes it stain faster.
Will the cleaning change the colour of my sandstone?
It brings back the natural colour that was under the dirt. Some stones are lighter or more golden than owners remember.
