Surfers Paradise
Exterior cleaning in Surfers Paradise. Quoted on site.
What we look for here
- In most basements, the gear gets walked in.
- Common-area work often runs before 7am or after trading, and that’s in the quote.
- Podium taps are often keyed to the building manager, so we confirm water beforehand.
- Glass surrounds, soffits and rendered columns grey off first from salt and grit.
- Bin bays and undercover car parks are washed with the drains covered first.
More about Surfers Paradise
Towers and podiums
Surfers is mostly vertical, and that changes the job completely.
The work here is rarely one driveway — it is a tower’s entry apron, the podium level, the stairwell down to the basement, and the bin bay the building manager has been apologising for since March.
Access and hours
Access is the whole negotiation: loading zones on Ferny Avenue and the side streets fill early, in basements the gear is walked in, and a lot of the cleaning happens before residents are up or after the restaurants shut.
That out-of-hours window is quoted up front, not discovered on the morning.
Salt and grit
Salt carries a long way in off the beach and the northerly adds grit to it, so glass surrounds, balcony soffits and rendered columns grey off faster here than three streets inland.
Bin bays and drains
In bin bays and basement car parks, drain protection goes down before anything runs.
How we work
- We photograph the whole job before we start, damage included. You get the full set either way.
- Drains protected, plants covered, biodegradable products. What we lift is kept out of the stormwater drains.
- Walls are washed from the ground.
- Fibro and asbestos cement — fibro cladding, a Super Six roof, eaves, a pre-1990 fence — identified on the walk-around, left as found and documented in writing.
- We clean. Coatings, sealing and restoration are left to the trade that holds the QBCC licence for that work.
