Extera operator washing a school forecourt with the truck-mounted rig behind

Capability statement · For strata, facilities & property managers

Stop pricing a portfolio surface by surface.

Quoting every building individually means a site visit, a measure, a scope and an approval before anyone washes a wall. Across an asset list that costs more than the cleaning. So we also sell the crew by the day: you set the priority order, we work down it, and you get a report with photos.

Commercial & strata exterior maintenance · Perth

Stop pricing a portfolio surface by surface.

Every building quoted individually is a visit, a measure, a scope and an approval before a single wall gets washed. Across an asset list the administration outruns the work. So the crew is also sold by the day, against a priority order you set.

Quoting surface by surface

The measuring is the slow part

Each building needs an attendance, a measure, a written scope and an approval before anything happens. Multiply that across a portfolio and the process costs more than the work, the quotes are not comparable to each other anyway, and the growth carries on regardless while it is all being arranged.

A site day instead

The rig, the operator and your list

7.5 hours portal to portal, all plant and chemical included, worked down a priority order agreed in writing. One rate, one invoice, nothing measured. A completion report with photos lands at the end, ready to drop into a committee pack.

All rates exclude GST. Hourly equivalents shown against a 7.5 hour day, portal to portal. Perth metro within 25 km; beyond that a full day applies plus travel for the additional return time. Surfaces can still be quoted individually where you would rather have a fixed scope, and there is no lock-in contract either way.

The catch-up blitz

A building that has got away from you. Three to five days back to back, worked down a priority order, and it is back to a state you can maintain.

The seasonal programme

Visits timed either side of the wet months, scoped and budgeted in advance, so it never lands as an unbudgeted item at an AGM.

Portfolio rotation

A standing retainer of four or more days a month, rotated across the asset list. Lowest rate per hour, and nothing sits waiting on a quote.

Why it is scheduled, not reactive

Organic growth has a season. Budget against it, not after it.

Mould, algae and lichen flare through Perth's cool, wet months, roughly May to September. Clearing and re-protecting heading into the drier months means the building never gets to the state where somebody notices, which is the point at which it costs the most to fix.

A scheduled programme also spreads the cost predictably across the year instead of landing as an unbudgeted item at an AGM. We define the scope, split it into periodic tasks, and report after every visit. There is no lock-in: we would rather earn the next visit.

Take over an existing scope We can pick up an exterior scope from your current contractor at any review.

What Perth does to a building

Six things we are actually treating, and the reason method matters more than pressure.

Soft, porous limestone

Perth limestone and cement render drink water and damage easily. High pressure pits and opens the surface, so it soils faster afterwards.

Winter mould, algae & lichen

Growth flares on shaded, damp walls and paths through the wet months. It needs a biocide that kills it at the source, not a blast that takes the film off.

Bore & reticulation staining

Iron and calcium bake orange and brown into render, limestone, paths and glass. It needs a stain treatment, then protection so it does not simply return.

Coastal salt

Near the coast salt crusts and works into porous stone and paver joints. Cleaned and then protected, coastal stone stays sounder for longer.

Red dust & UV chalking

Summer dust and hard UV dull rendered facades and leave a chalky film, so a building looks tired well before it is due for repainting.

Roof moss & lichen

Tiled roofs hold moisture against the tile on the shaded side. Treated from the eaves at low pressure, never blasted.

Soft washing, our default

The chemistry does the work

Biodegradable biocide at low pressure, left to work
Kills mould, algae and lichen at the source
Safe on soft, porous render and limestone
A controlled 860 mm surface cleaner on hardstand that can take it
Growth identified before it is treated, because green on stone is not always algae

High pressure blasting

Fast, and it costs you the surface

Pits and erodes limestone and render, opening the pores
Drives water and spores into and under the surface
Removes only the film on top, so growth returns quickly
On a roof it lifts pointing and forces water under flashings

How we engage

Site walk.We walk the property with you, identify what is growth and what is mineral staining, and note access, water and anything that needs a permit.
Scope or day rate.A fixed scoped price where you want one, or a priority order against site days where you would rather skip the measuring.
Programmed visits.Split into periodic tasks and timed to the season, so the work lands before the building looks like it needs it.
Report after every visit.Before and after photos, ready to drop straight into a committee pack or an AGM report.
