Cleaning works

Roof terrace cleaning in Knokke and on the coast.

Roof terrace cleaning means clearing the deck, the tiles, the thresholds and the wall cladding of a terrace at height of green deposits and dirt. Desaever Group does this for apartments and houses in Knokke, Duinbergen, Het Zoute and on the Belgian coast, with the pressure adapted to the material.

What we do

How do we clean a roof terrace?

The material decides the method. We clean a timber deck with adapted pressure and the right distance, so the grain does not open up; tiles can take more pressure. In Duinbergen we cleaned the wooden deck of a roof terrace overlooking the sea, together with the timber wall cladding and the granite threshold, so the terrace was ready for the season.

Why does a roof terrace by the sea turn green and slippery so quickly?

A roof terrace lies open to wind, salt and rain. Wood turns grey and slippery, and green deposits settle on tiles and in the joints. If you have the terrace cleaned before the season, you find it in order when you arrive.

Preparing a roof terrace for a new finish

If the terrace gets a new floor, the base has to be clean and level. At an apartment we cleaned the base of a roof terrace with the pressure washer: old adhesive and joint residue removed and the screed cleared. In Knokke we fitted a balcony terrace with new tiles, from scaffolding on the façade and within the building’s rules.

Working in an apartment building

At an apartment we work within the building’s rules; shared parts go through the building manager. The garden furniture on the terrace can be cleaned in the same visit.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a wooden roof terrace be pressure-washed?

Not at full pressure. We clean wood with lower pressure and the right distance, so the grain does not open up.

Do you also clean the thresholds and the wall cladding?

Yes. In Duinbergen we cleaned the timber wall cladding and the granite threshold together with the deck.

Can it be done while I am away?

Yes. We agree beforehand what will be done and how we get access, and afterwards you hear what has been done.

How do I ask for a guide price?

Send a few photos of the terrace with your request. The material and the surface are usually enough for a guide price.
