A wash is for a Melbourne roof that is sound and dirty — moss, salt film, gutters. Book Roof Revival when it leaks, the pointing has failed, or you want a new roof or colour system. Using the wrong job wastes a week.

Elwood moss on sound terracotta can be washed as prep. Point Cook builder dust on sound Colorbond can be washed as prep.
A ceiling drip, hail map, or ridge you can lift is a repair or restore — that is us.
Pre-sale kerb appeal is often a wash. Pre-sale structural honesty is a condition report. Many listings need both, in that order.
We will not title a gutter-flush money page to chase cheap clicks. Restoration and leaks are the work.
Start with photos. We will say whether restore, repair or replace is the honest door.
Prep wash sits inside a restore quote. It is not a substitute for ridges, flashings or a new roof.
Point Cook. Young roofs. Failures are usually detail and overflow, not 40-year mortar. West wind and dust. Hot dark Colorbond. Flashing, leak, and replace — not a 1980s restore story. Failure modes: builder dust, flashing on new junctions, gutter overflow on small eaves.
Elwood. Bungalows and walk-up flats. Common property roofs need OC approval. Bay air and canal humidity. Moss on shaded tile. Strata reports and like-for-like on character streets. Failure modes: strata access, salt plus plane-tree gutters, box gutters on flats.
Roof Revival washes as preparation for Melbourne restoration and painting — moss, dirt and failed surface come off before repairs and membrane. This is not a cheap standalone gutter flush.
Prep is inside the restore quote. A standalone wash is quoted only when the roof is sound and you are not coating yet.
Roof Cleaning as Stage One of Restoration is the money page this article supports.
If the roof is sound and only dirty, say so on the form. Prep wash sits inside a restore. We will not title a gutter-flush money page to chase cheap clicks.
