Most of the time, no. As long as there's water access and I can get to the areas being cleaned, most clients are at work or out while I complete the job.

I'll let you know when I arrive and send you before and after photos when I'm done so you can see the result even if you're not home.

Pricing depends on the size of the area, surface type, and level of staining. As a guide:

· Roof cleaning from $3.50/m2 single storey · House wash from $660 single storey · Driveway clean from $285 · Solar panel clean $10 per panel.

Pressure washing uses high-force water to blast surface dirt — great for concrete and hard surfaces. Softwashing uses low pressure combined with biodegradable treatment solutions to kill organic growth like mould, algae, and lichen at the root.

At Rinsed, we use softwashing on roofs, rendered walls, painted surfaces, and anything that could be damaged by high pressure. It's not just safer — the results last significantly longer because we're killing the growth, not just washing it off the surface.

Not with Rinsed. High-pressure washing on rendered walls or roof tiles can cause real damage — cracked tiles, paint failure, and voided manufacturer warranties. That's exactly why I use low-pressure softwash technology on these surfaces.

I adjust the pressure and treatment solution for every surface type. You get a professional result without the risk that comes with incorrect pressure washing.

Yes — that's exactly what I specialise in. The Gold Coast's humid climate is one of the worst in Australia for organic growth on roofs, walls, and concrete.

At Rinsed I use softwash treatment that doesn't just remove visible staining — it kills the organism at the root so it takes significantly longer to come back compared to pressure washing alone.

Most house washes take 2–4 hours depending on size. Roof softwashes can take 3-5 hours on top of that. Driveways are usually 1–2 hours.

If you're booking multiple services in one visit — which most clients do — I'll give you a clear time estimate when I quote so you can plan your day. Most clients don't need to be home at all as long as there's water access and the gate's unlocked.

At Rinsed we clean just about every exterior surface — roofs, rendered and brick walls, Colorbond, weatherboard, driveways, pavers, concrete, fences, retaining walls, decks, patios, and solar panels.

The key is using the right method for each surface. Roofs, render, and painted surfaces get softwashed — low pressure combined with biodegradable treatment. Hard surfaces like concrete and pavers get high-pressure cleaning where it's appropriate. Every job starts with assessing what's in front of me so the right method is used every time.

On the Gold Coast, roofs typically need softwashing every 1–3 years due to the humidity and heat accelerating lichen and mould growth. House exteriors usually need attention every 12–18 months.

Driveways and concrete depend on traffic and shade — shaded areas attract organic growth faster and may need attention annually. I'll give you an honest recommendation when I'm on site.

Yes. Rinsed uses professional-grade biodegradable treatment solutions that are safe for surrounding plants, pets, and surfaces when applied correctly. I take precautions to protect your garden and landscaping before I start.

I don't use harsh off-the-shelf chemicals — the solutions I use are formulated specifically for exterior cleaning applications.

Absolutely — and it's one of the highest ROI things you can do before a sale. A professionally cleaned roof, exterior, and driveway can dramatically improve street appeal and perceived value for a fraction of what other renovation work costs.

I do a lot of presale cleans across the Gold Coast. If you're preparing to sell, get in touch and I'll put together a package that makes the whole property look its best before the first open home.

Yes — when done properly by someone who knows what they're doing. The wrong pressure on the wrong surface causes real damage — cracked tiles, stripped paint, ruined render.

That's why every job at Rinsed starts with assessing the surface type and choosing the right method. Softwash where it's needed, pressure wash where it's appropriate. You get the right result without the risk.
