Every roof is different, which is why we offer a comprehensive range of roof cleaning service options tailored to your specific roofing material and condition. As experienced roof cleaners Sydney residents have relied on for decades, we understand what each roof type needs.

Terracotta tiles are beautiful but naturally porous, which makes them vulnerable to moss and lichen buildup in Sydney’s humid climate. Our terracotta cleaning process safely removes all biological growth without harming the tile surface or disturbing the protective glaze. By carefully adjusting water pressure, we ensure your classic terracotta tiles are thoroughly cleaned and fully protected.

Colorbond and metal roofs accumulate dirt, pollution, and environmental fallout that dulls their appearance. Our metal roof cleaning service uses appropriate pressure settings and cleaning agents that remove contamination without scratching the surface or damaging protective coatings. Regular cleaning helps maintain the reflective properties of metal roofs, improving energy efficiency.

Some roofs, especially older terracotta or previously painted tiles—need a more delicate touch. Soft wash roof cleaning uses low-pressure water along with specialised cleaning solutions to eliminate moss, algae, and lichen at the source without damaging the tiles. This gentle method is perfect for fragile surfaces where high-pressure cleaning could cause harm.

For robust roofing materials like concrete tiles and metal roofing, high-pressure roof cleaning delivers the most effective results. Our commercial-grade equipment operates at pressures up to 3,000 PSI, stripping away years of accumulated grime, moss, and staining. We adjust pressure settings based on your roof’s material and condition to ensure thorough cleaning without damage.

Action Roofing was recommended by a local carpenter. Michael said I would be really happy with them - and I was. Michael knew one of the owners for many years. All the dealings I had with Paul and Peter (the owners) and subsequently Ben and Kyle, who did the actual roofing repairs, were excellent. There were plenty of photos provided (I asked for them) and Ben explained what they did, and also educated me on what makes a good job and why. More research on my part confirmed that Ben and earlier Paul, were not talking "through their hat". The repairs/maintenance were not cheap but the care Ben and Kyle showed in their work was obvious. I wanted a good job with no shortcuts. Earlier at the time Paul assessed my roof, after questioning, Paul indicated that if I wanted shortcuts, then I would have to get another roofer. Overall, very happy customer.

Peter is one of the rare tradies that is honest and accurate about what needs fixing on a job and hence doesn’t charge an arm and a leg.
We use Peter for all of our roofing jobs and I would’t risk giving a job to anyone else. He is quick to pin point the issue and his pricing is fair. I once had an owners insurance builders return 5 times to a property without fixing the issue. I asked the owner if we could send Peter which I did and the job was completed first go.

I am the Maintenance manager at a Retirement and aged care village on the Northern Beaches (Allambie Heights) and we have had the pleasure of having Action Roofing do
considerable repairs, alterations and maintenance on our many 1970 era, eves and gutters. The service was excellent, the staff very skilled ,polite efficient and clean and tidy. The Owner Peter Portelli was so very competent in all aspects. Technically the best I've been associated with. He was in high demand especially during weather incidents and even then never failed to turn up for appoints , quotes or actual work to be done. When Peter gave his assurances on a job I knew it would be done to the highest standard.
I cannot but give him references of the highest quality

When You Should Consider Roof Cleaning for Your Home

Visible Moss, Algae, or Lichen Growth

Visible Moss, Algae, or Lichen Growth

Green or black patches on your roof aren't just unsightly, they're actively damaging your roofing materials. Moss retains moisture against tiles, accelerating deterioration. Lichen produces acids that eat into tile surfaces. In Sydney's climate, biological growth can establish quickly in shaded areas and spread across your entire roof within a few seasons.

Water Pooling or Poor Drainage

Water Pooling or Poor Drainage

If you notice water sitting on your roof after rain or overflowing gutters during storms, debris buildup is likely the cause. Leaves, moss, and dirt accumulate in valleys and around penetrations, blocking natural water flow. This standing water can seep under tiles and into your roof cavity, causing timber rot and ceiling damage.

Accumulation of Bird Droppings

Accumulation of Bird Droppings

Bird droppings are highly acidic and can permanently stain and damage roofing materials if left untreated. Properties near trees or with solar panels often experience significant bird activity. Regular roof cleaning removes these corrosive deposits before they cause lasting damage to your tiles or metal roofing.

Heavy Dirt and Grime

Heavy Dirt and Grime

Sydney's urban environment deposits dust, pollution, and particulates onto your roof constantly. Over time, this buildup dulls your roof's appearance and can trap moisture against the surface. If your once-bright Colorbond roof now looks grey and faded, professional cleaning can often restore much of its original colour.

Leaves, Branches, and Other Debris

Leaves, Branches, and Other Debris

Overhanging trees deposit leaves, twigs, bark, and seeds onto your roof. This organic matter holds moisture, encourages moss growth, and blocks gutters. Properties in leafy Western Sydney suburbs like Castle Hill or Baulkham Hills often require more frequent roof and gutter cleaning to manage debris accumulation.

We apply targeted treatment solutions that kill moss and lichen at the root, preventing rapid regrowth. For heavily affected roofs, this step is crucial for achieving lasting results.

High-Pressure Roof Cleaning

With preparation complete, we systematically clean your entire roof surface. Working from ridge to gutter, we remove all dirt, staining, Our equipment allows precise pressure adjustment, we use appropriate settings for your specific roof type to ensure thorough cleaning without any risk of damage. We also clear all valleys, around penetrations, and along roof edges where debris accumulates.

Final Roof Inspection

Once cleaning is complete, we conduct a final inspection to ensure every section meets our standards. We check for any tiles that may have been loose before cleaning (and now need repair), confirm gutters are flowing correctly, and document the completed work. You'll receive before and after photos showing the transformation.

Frequently Asked
Questions

How much does roof cleaning cost in Sydney?

Professional roof cleaning services in Sydney typically involve a thorough cleaning process that includes high-pressure cleaning or gentle cleaning methods, depending on the roof type and condition. Gutter cleaning often accompanies professional roof cleaning, which can affect the overall cleaning scope for roof cleaning Sydney projects.

Have roof cleaning in sydney done every 12–24 months. Our Sydney based team uses the latest equipment to target problem areas where organic matter builds up; if this is left unchecked, they remove moss early, which is highly recommended to prevent structural damage.

When performed correctly, no. We adjust pressure settings specifically for your roof type and tile condition. Terracotta and older tiles receive lower pressure or soft wash treatment, while robust concrete tiles and metal roofing can handle higher pressure safely. Our experience across thousands of Sydney roofs means we know exactly what each surface can handle.

Yes, we offer combined roof and gutter cleaning packages. It makes sense to clear gutters when cleaning your roof since debris washes into them during the process. Our gutter cleaning service includes clearing all gutters, downpipes, and outlets to ensure proper drainage.

In most cases, yes. Black staining is typically caused by algae, lichen, or accumulated pollution. Our cleaning process removes these stains effectively from most roof types. Some very old or severe staining may lighten significantly rather than disappear completely, which we’ll discuss during your inspection.

High-pressure cleaning uses water force (up to 3,000 PSI) to blast away dirt and growth—effective for durable surfaces like concrete tiles and metal roofing. Soft washing uses lower pressure (similar to a garden hose) combined with cleaning solutions that kill moss and algae chemically. Soft wash is gentler and better suited to delicate tiles, painted surfaces, or older roofs where high pressure could cause damage.
