Yes. Bayview 2104 is on our Pittwater peninsula run and we are in Church Point and Mona Vale most weeks. We quote within one business day and book most Bayview jobs within 7 to 10 days.
Pricing is on request. Bayview properties range from pittwater waterfront estates on pittwater road with jetties and boat sheds to much larger sites, so we measure from aerial imagery, test where needed and send one fixed written price.
On the Pittwater slopes the sandstone is soft, often hand-cut, and stained by tannin and lichen from the canopy; it is cleaned at under 500 psi with a reducing poultice for the iron and tannin marks. The method is set for Bayview conditions.
Not into the street. Bayview drains to Pittwater estuary. We bund the kerb inlet, capture or redirect rinse water to garden, and vacuum-recover on sealed or commercial sites.
In pittwater waterfront and slopes conditions like Bayview, usually every 12 months. Shade, irrigation and aspect change that, so the quote puts a cycle in writing.
Yes. Pittwater's sandstone is soft and often hand-cut; we use a biocide soft wash, a dwell of 20 to 30 minutes, stiff brushing and a rinse under 500 psi. No acid, no turbo nozzle, no pressure on the mortar joints.
It will bring back the warm colour and banding by removing lichen and algae, but it will not erase old wand damage or weathering. We show you the result on a test patch before the full job.
Yes, written on every quote: if anything we quoted is not clean at handover we return within seven days and redo it free. We carry $20 million public liability and every Bayview job has a named lead technician.
