Throughout Melbourne, there are endless roofs full of moss and lichen build-up which can ultimately lead to a leaky roof. In order to prevent internal damage, it is important to undertake roof cleaning periodically. Terracotta roofs especially attract the lichen, which left over time will block the watercourses of the roof tiles and allow water to enter the roof cavity. Apart from preventing future leaks, a freshly cleaned roof looks amazing and will totally change the aesthetics of your home!
We clean using a petrol, high-pressure washing machine that will clean your roof with 4,000psi of water. But no need to worry about the quality of the water we clean with– it comes straight from your garden tap! We use only regular water for our high-pressure roof cleaning services. No harmful chemicals are used whatsoever for the benefit of our clients and the environment.


Pressure washing roof tiles is a very important step in roof restoration. Time and care must be taken to wash every part of a roof, including gutters and drainpipes, but the end result is well worth it.
Roof Guard Roofing is able to provide roof cleaning for a range of roof varieties and materials from concrete and terracotta to polycarbonate and metal. Our roof washing services are available for roofs of all shapes and sizes. Each roof will have unique concerns and cleaning requirements, so be sure to enquire with us about how a high-pressure wash can benefit your roof.
That being said, there may be no damage done to your roof, but that doesn’t mean you don’t need a clean. Some people choose to wash their roof purely for aesthetic reasons. There’s no reason not to wash your roof from time to time. When you do, make sure you hire professionals you can trust.
Please note that it will get quite loud and very messy during a high-pressure roof clean. There is no need to worry about this, however, as we take as much time as necessary to clean up all the mess created from your high-pressure cleaning service. We will make every effort possible to leave your Melbourne home and surrounding property in the same state or better as when we arrived.

Most roofs benefit from a cleaning every five to ten years, though you may need it more often if you live near trees or by the coast.
No — when carried out by professionals, cleaning is completely safe. We use the right pressure and techniques for your roof type.
Yes. Clearing away moss, lichen, and built-up debris helps water drain properly, reducing the risk of leaks.
Yes, we also clear gutters so rainwater flows freely and doesn’t cause overflow or damage.
Most homes are done in a single day, though larger or heavily soiled roofs may take longer.
That depends on the size and condition of your roof. We provide free, no-obligation quotes so you’ll know the cost upfront.
