02. What Roof Terrace Cleaning at Bling Bling covers

The scope of work in Vienna, Graz, Linz, Salzburg and Klosterneuburg at a glance — what the contract says and what actually happens on site.

Clearing outlets and emergency overflows

Leaf trap, outlet pot, parapet outlet and emergency overflow are opened, cleaned and the flow of water is checked — with a photograph of what was found.

Lifting decking and cleaning underneath

Timber and WPC decking panels are lifted off, the space beneath is cleared of leaves, fine debris and growth, and the waterproofing is inspected.

Paving supports and the gravel margin

Pedestal supports are exposed, moss and windborne seed removed, and the gravel margin along the parapet cleared of growth — it is a protective margin, not decoration.

Cleaning the surface as the material requires

Timber brushed along the grain, WPC at low pressure only, porcelain stoneware and concrete slabs with the appropriate agent, jointing sand checked.

Railings, glass balustrade, screening

Glass panels on both faces, handrail, post feet and the drainage slots in the balustrade, plus the awning housing on the outside.

Secured working at the fall edge

Anchor points checked, personal protective equipment, materials and equipment secured against wind. Work stops in gusts.

03. Roof Terrace Cleaning: Bling Bling vs. the competition

On a roof terrace the risk is not the surface but what lies beneath it: the waterproofing, the root barrier and the outlets. Excessive pressure, the wrong chemistry or a forgotten leaf grating does not cost the appearance, it costs the ceiling below. Added to that are the fall edge and the wind at height. We begin with an initial survey including a visual check of the junctions, work with low pressure and a brush, lift the decking rather than mopping over it, and record outlets and findings photographically. No subcontractors: whoever quotes for the work carries it out.

06. 10 reasons for Roof Terrace Cleaning from Bling Bling

What a cleaning company has to be measured against — and which of it can be verified.

1In business since 2014

A family firm, not a franchise and not a broker — whoever quotes also carries out the work.

2Registered core team

Permanently employed and properly registered. No chain of subcontractors where nobody is liable at the end.

3The same people every time

The team knows the building, the access and the routines. Cover is arranged and named in advance.

4€3m public liability

Personal injury, property and financial loss covered; the certificate is attached to the quotation.

5RKI/VAH-listed agents, HACCP

Listed agents, trained staff, a cleaning and disinfection plan for each building.

6Multilingual

German, English and five further languages — the briefing gets through.

7No price without a site visit

A flat price over the phone rarely holds. After the visit the framework is set out in writing. A monthly flat rate applies to weekly recurring cleaning; one-off and deep cleans by effort - hourly, per square metre or flat - travel included.

8Dated proof

Record of each visit and photo documentation, reported monthly.

9A visual check before the first brush

Junctions, parapet and penetrations are inspected and photographed before any water reaches the surface.

10Building matters without a second firm

Loose parapet flashing, defective junctions or broken paving supports are taken on by our partner firm Skyline Bau GmbH. Cleaning follows afterwards.

08. Roof Terrace Cleaning for 5 typical situations

The same service looks different depending on the occasion — these five situations come up most often.

The spring start before the terrace season

Winter leaf litter, biological growth on the shaded side and blocked outlets in a single visit.

After the autumn leaf fall

Leaves in the outlet are the most common reason for standing water on the terrace and moisture in the build-up.

After a storm or heavy rain with water ingress

Outlets and emergency overflows first, then the surface — and a photographic record for the managing agent or the insurer.

On letting or handover of a flat

The terrace forms part of the handover record and is regularly objected to, because it is forgotten when people move out.

After work on the roof or the façade

Mortar residue, drilling dust and sheeting from above land on precisely this surface.

★ Worth knowing

What is often misjudged about Roof Terrace Cleaning

Said up front, on the facts — not after the invoice.

The outlet decides matters, not the surface

Terraces over habitable rooms have only a slight fall. A half-blocked outlet backs the water up above the height at which the waterproofing is dressed in, and then it does not go over the edge, it goes into the build-up. The emergency overflow is the second safeguard and in practice often goes unchecked for years. Both belong in every visit, even when everything looks dry on top.

High pressure is the most common cause of damage on roof terraces

A hard jet lifts jointing sand out, raises the fibres of timber, forces water under the slabs and can open the waterproofing at a lap or a junction. That often only becomes visible with the next heavy rain, and then a storey lower down. We work with low pressure, a brush and contact time; where a machine is needed, the distance stays wide and the angle shallow.

Green on timber and WPC is growth, not dirt

On the shaded side and under planters, a film of algae and lichen sits within the structure of the surface. Water alone only lightens it and it is back within a season. With a brush along the grain and an agent against algae the result lasts considerably longer. Where timber has already been raised, we say beforehand that after cleaning the timber will need a follow-up treatment.

●. Frequently asked questions about Roof Terrace Cleaning

What does Roof Terrace Cleaning cost?

There is no price before the site visit, and a figure given over the phone rarely holds. We look at surfaces, access and time windows, and then the cost framework is set out in writing with a schedule of services. What changes the price: the area, the frequency, the condition at handover and the time of day the work is done. Two rules apply everywhere: a monthly flat rate is only offered for recurring cleaning at least once a week, including stairwells. One-off jobs, first cleans and deep cleans are billed by effort - depending on the service by the hour at a higher rate, by square metre or as a flat price - and travel time there and back counts.

Is the site visit really free?

Yes, free of charge and without obligation. It is the only way to quote seriously, so we treat it as part of the offer, not as a service to be paid for.

Does the same person come every time?

Yes. The team is permanently employed and knows the building, the access arrangements and the routines. Cover is arranged in advance and named, and it works from the building log, not from a verbal handover.

Is your staff properly registered?

All of them, with social insurance. No chain of subcontractors in which nobody is liable at the end. Proof is provided on request.

What insurance is in place?

Public liability of €3m, covering personal injury, property damage and financial loss. The certificate is attached to the quotation.

What happens if something is not right?

It is put right within 48 hours, in writing, at no extra cost. Measured against the schedule of services and a joint inspection, not against an impression.

Can you work outside business hours?

Yes — early, late, at weekends or on public holidays. In occupied buildings, daytime cleaning in sections is often the better option, because the client sees the work and can raise anything immediately.

Do I have to provide materials or a room?

Materials and equipment we bring. What helps is a lockable store with a slop sink, space for the trolley and somewhere for pads to dry — damp pads in a closed bag are the most common source of smell in an otherwise clean building.

What notice period applies?

The contract is terminable monthly. There is no minimum term and no automatic extension by the year.

Do you also work in English?

Yes — German, English and five further languages. The briefing gets through, which matters more on site than it sounds.

Which documents do I get?

A schedule of services with frequencies, a dated record of each visit, photo documentation before and after, and a monthly report.

How quickly can you start?

Usually within a few working days of the quotation being accepted. Short-notice jobs are most readily possible in Vienna, because travel times within a district are short.
