Soft wash first
Low pressure and the right chemistry. We treat spores at the source so moss does not flash back in a season.

Why VicWide
Why Melbourne homeowners book this service
Insured crew
Fully insured Melbourne operators. Police-checked staff. We work around gardens, tanks and solar the way a neighbour would want.
No surface damage
We do not blast glaze off terracotta or pit Colorbond. If pointing has already failed, we photograph it and stop.
Process
How a VicWide visit runs
1
Inspection & safety
We walk the roof for damage, wear and access. Height gear goes on before chemistry. Unsafe roofs get photographed and paused.
2
Foam dwell
Soft-wash foam sits on the plane so moss and film release. No turbo blast on glaze or factory paint.
3
Low-pressure wash
Controlled rinse across the plane. Dirt and growth leave. Tiles, Colorbond, pointing and sealants stay.
4
Condition check
Final walk of flashing, gutters and surface. Photos before and after. Failed ridges go on the notes — we do not coat them.
FAQ
Roof Cleaning Melbourne questions
Poor pressure work can. We prefer soft wash on terracotta and aged concrete. High pressure is only used where the profile and condition allow it.
Every three to five years for most suburbs. South pitches, trees and bayside salt can bring that forward.
No. VicWide stops at clean. We do not restore, paint or re-roof.
Book a wash
