Bangalow, NSW
Coastline Restoration Co. in Bangalow
Heritage village cottages and hinterland acreage in the green hills behind Byron — no salt out here, just leaf litter, mould and the shire's tree rules.
Coastal home — descriptive placeholder until real photos are suppliedBangalow sits up in the green hills behind Byron Bay — heritage cottages around the village, rambling acreage and renovated farmhouses out among the hills. There's no salt this far inland; the work is leaf litter, humidity-fed mould on the shaded sides, and long acreage roof and gutter runs under heavy tree cover.
Bangalow is the hinterland end of the Byron side — heritage cottages clustered around the village, and rambling acreage and renovated farmhouses spread through the green hills behind it. There’s no salt this far inland. The work is the inland kind: leaf litter, mould, and the long roof and gutter runs of acreage homes under heavy tree cover.
The gutters are the main event. Acreage blocks here sit under serious tree canopy, and the gutters fill fast — twice a year is common, once before the wet season and again after the heaviest leaf drop. A lot of these homes are tank-fed, so the roof is a catchment: a leaf-clogged roof carries debris straight into the drinking water. We clear the gutters and valleys, check the downpipes and the first-flush diverter, and keep the catchment clean.
The shaded, humid hill country grows mould and lichen on any wall or roof pitch that doesn’t get sun. A soft-wash clears it and a treatment slows the regrowth. The heritage village cottages want the gentlest hand — delicate old paint and soft timber that we clean with low pressure and the right detergent, never a high-pressure blast.
And as everywhere in Byron Shire, the trees are protected. We’ll clear what’s in your gutters, but we won’t lop the tree dropping it — that needs an arborist and council approval, and the penalties for getting it wrong are real. We tell you the right way to handle it rather than take a shortcut that lands you in trouble.

FAQ
Bangalow questions
We're on acreage under a lot of trees — how often do the gutters need clearing?
On a tree-covered hinterland block, at least once a year and often twice — once before the wet season and again after the worst of the leaf drop. Heavy tree cover fills gutters fast, and if you're on tank water that leaf load ends up affecting the tank. We clear the gutters and valleys, check the downpipes and first-flush diverter, and give you an honest read on whether one clean a year is really enough.
The trees are the problem — can't you just trim them back from the roof?
We can clear what's already in the gutters, but we won't cut the trees. Byron Shire has strict vegetation protection and lopping or removing a tree without approval can carry serious penalties. If a tree genuinely needs work to keep it off the roof, we'll tell you to engage an arborist and check with council first. That's the right way to do it here.
Our heritage cottage has original paint — is it safe to clean?
Yes, with care. Old village cottages often have delicate original paint and soft timber that high pressure will strip or splinter. We use a low-pressure soft-wash and a gentle detergent, test a small area first, and treat the heritage fabric as something to preserve, not blast.
