Frequently asked questions
Everything Sydneysiders ask us
Prices, safety, booking, weather and guarantees — if it's not here, call 0400 000 000 and a human will answer.
Pricing
How much does pressure cleaning cost, and how do quotes work?
Most residential jobs sit within a known range: driveways $180–$450, house washing $250–$600, decks $200–$500 and roofs $500–$1,500. The exact price depends on surface area, condition and access. You can get an instant ballpark from our 60-second estimator, then we'll confirm a fixed quote by phone or email — and that quote is the price you pay, with no hidden extras.
Process
How long does a driveway or house wash take?
A standard single driveway takes 1 to 2 hours, and a single-storey house wash usually takes 1.5 to 3 hours. Larger or heavily soiled properties can take half a day. We'll give you a firm time window when we confirm your booking so you can plan around it.
Safety
Will pressure washing damage my surfaces?
Not when the right method is used. Houses and roofs are soft-washed at low pressure with a cleaning solution, which protects paint, render, mortar and roof tiles. Concrete and driveways take higher pressure safely, while timber decks are washed gently along the grain. We match the pressure and treatment to each surface and test a small area first.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Sydney Jet Wash is fully licensed and carries public liability insurance, so you're protected while we work on your property. We're happy to provide a certificate of currency on request — just ask when you book.
Eco
Are your cleaning chemicals and water use environmentally friendly?
Yes. We use biodegradable, low-toxicity treatments that are safe for gardens, pets and lawns — we pre-wet and cover plants as needed. Our equipment uses water efficiently and, because the job is done properly the first time, there's no need for harsh repeat treatments.
Booking
Do I need to be home while you work?
No. As long as we have access to the areas being cleaned and any outdoor taps, you're free to head out. Many customers simply leave a gate unlocked; we'll send photos of the finished job and can take payment over the phone.
How do I book a job?
Three easy ways: call us on 0400 000 000, email quotes@sydneyjetwash.com.au, or request a quote through this site. We'll confirm your fixed price and book you into the next available slot — most customers are booked in within the week.
Preparation
How should I prepare before you arrive?
Not much. Move cars off the driveway, bring pets inside, and clear small items like pot plants and outdoor furniture from the work areas — or leave them and we'll carefully move and replace them. We handle covering power points and protecting gardens ourselves.
Weather
What happens if the weather turns bad on my booking day?
Light rain doesn't stop us — in fact, it helps keep surfaces wet. For heavy rain, high winds or dangerous conditions we'll reschedule you to the next available slot, usually within days, and always confirm the new time with you. You're never charged for a weather cancellation.
Guarantee
What if I'm not happy with the result?
Tell us and we'll come back and re-clean the area at no charge — that's our clean-it-again guarantee. With a 4.9-star rating from more than 480 Google reviews, it's a promise we rarely need to honour, but it's there for your peace of mind.
Commercial
Do you take on commercial and body corporate work?
Yes. We clean shopfronts, car parks, walkways and strata common areas across Greater Sydney, with early morning, weekend and after-hours options to avoid disrupting trade. Commercial jobs are quoted per job after a free on-site assessment, and we provide scheduling and photo reports for body corporates.
Service Area
Which areas do you service?
Greater Sydney, from the Northern Beaches and North Shore to the Hills District, the Sutherland Shire, the Eastern Suburbs, the Inner West and the Parramatta region. If you're unsure whether we cover your suburb, call 0400 000 000 and ask — chances are we do.
Still unsure about something?
