What makes pressure cleaning different in Fairlight is black mould on the south-facing render of the Lauderdale Avenue blocks, lichen on the sandstone retaining walls, and salt haze on every harbour-facing window. Harbourside driveways are steep and often exposed aggregate under street trees, so tannin and moss are the target and the rotary cleaner keeps the finish even with no zebra stripes.

Harbour-facing apartment blocks from the 1960s to the 2000s on Lauderdale Avenue, Inter-war brick bungalows on the Hilltop and Woods Parade slopes, and large rendered rebuilds taking the North Harbour view. We work around Fairlight Beach and the harbour pool, the Manly Scenic Walkway below Lauderdale Avenue and North Harbour Reserve, on streets such as Lauderdale Avenue, Fairlight Crescent, Woods Parade and Sydney Road.

Field note from Fairlight. Fairlight's harbour glass gets a finer salt haze than the ocean side; it looks clean until the afternoon sun hits it, which is why we clean these homes on a quarterly cycle rather than waiting for a call. Nathan G, Founder

Run-off in Fairlight. This part of the peninsula drains to North Harbour. On every Fairlight pressure cleaning job the kerb inlets are bunded and rinse water is captured or sent to garden, as Northern Beaches Council requires.

In Fairlight we usually recommend pressure cleaning every 12 to 18 months, and the cycle is written on the quote.

Protecting the garden and drains during pressure cleaning in Fairlight
Our method in Fairlight

How we do it, and what we protect while we work

Every surface starts with a test patch to set heat, pressure and detergent. Oil and tannin are pre-treated, then a 21 to 30 inch rotary cleaner running water at around 80 degrees works the whole area evenly, with a lance only for edges. Drains are covered and the water captured or filtered.

Plants and garden beds wetted and sheeted before chemicals
Drain covers and recovery mats on every job near stormwater
Test patch before full application on any new surface
Vehicles and furniture moved or covered

Highly recommend The Prestige Standard, they cleaned my sandstone, it looks perfect!

Caspar Howard
Google review · Sandstone Cleaning

I recently had my brick pavers cleaned by Prestige Standard and I couldn't be happier with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and paid great attention to detail. My pavers went from looking dull and stained to fresh and almost brand new again.
