Make the scope easy to review
A strata quote should identify the buildings or areas included, the cleaning method, key exclusions and any access assumptions. Photographs and a marked site plan can help avoid ambiguity. Repairs, specialist stain removal, window detailing and elevated access should be identified separately where relevant.
Plan around a working property
Residents, visitors, deliveries and parked vehicles still need consideration during cleaning. We discuss how areas will be prepared, when particular routes may be unavailable and what advance communication is required. The building manager or committee can then coordinate notices and access arrangements against the agreed work plan.
Prioritise the areas that need attention
Entries, shaded paths and heavily used common areas may have different needs from decorative walls or upper elevations. A staged scope can help address the most useful work first. Cleaning cannot correct uneven paving, defective drainage or deteriorated finishes; these should be raised for separate maintenance.
What we look at before quoting.
- Site-specific common-area assessment
- Written scope with areas and exclusions
- Discussion of access and resident coordination
- Cleaning of the approved surfaces
- Completion review with the nominated contact
A clear scope before work begins.
Surface area is only part of the picture. The material, amount of growth, staining, access and protection needed all affect the work. Share the relevant details in your enquiry so the quote can be specific to your home.
Understanding the finish.
Cleaning can remove surface dirt and growth, but cannot reverse etching, structural damage or worn coatings. Stains may respond differently and some marks can remain. Any limitations, test requirements or specialist repairs should be discussed before work is agreed.
