TESTIMONIALS
Google review by
Rev. Mark Lawson from
Gladesville Presbyterian Church
“We recently engaged Mick’s Pressure to clean the outside of our church. It was black with grime after almost 100 years of neglect. Now, after Mick cleaned it, it is positively sparkling.
Some of the parts of the church, particularly the sandstone fence posts, were so grimy that I didn’t even know what colour they were until they were cleaned. We were really worried that the sandstone was too brittle to be cleaned, but Mick managed to protect the stone and clean it as well.
Some commercial cleaners refused to do the job because they were worried about the sandstone; Mick, however, assured us that it could be done with the correct care and expertise. Clearly, Mick exercised great care in completing the clean, revealing, to me in any event, his expertise and dedication to providing a top-quality service.
I have no hesitation in recommending Mick’s Pressure to anyone who needs work of this nature done. His pricing is more than reasonable and the results are fantastic.
If anyone wishes to see the outcome of Mick’s work, the address of the church is 2 Pittwater Rd, Gladesville. You will see the difference between our church building before it was cleaned and after, in the photographs below.
Mick’s Pressure did a really good job.”
