The home town
Hydro X is based here. Yearly pest treatments and truck-mounted carpet cleaning for the town, the cane flats along the river, and the farms and villages up the valley.
Valley conditions
Almost every house around Murwillumbah has something living right up against it: scrub, a paddock, a cane block or a creek line. Pests do not stay out there. They follow warmth and water indoors, which is why a treatment done only inside never holds for long.
The air sits heavy through the wet season, and the older timber homes here have the gaps and the cool dark subfloors that spiders, cockroaches and silverfish look for. When the weather turns the other way, rats and mice head for the roof.
A general treatment is carried out inside and outside in the one visit, using low toxicity chemicals chosen to cause you the least hassle going about your home.
What gets treated
Cockroaches, spiders and ants, treated inside and out. This is the yearly job most houses in town run on.
Ants need their own approach. Inside, outside and the lawn, because the trail on your bench started somewhere out in the yard.
Common on acreage and anywhere near a shed or feed. We clear what is there, then work with you on how they got in.
Carpets cleaned first, treatment after, the order agents ask for. One booking covers the pair.
Up the valley
We also service the surrounding areas of Murwillumbah: Tumbulgum, Condong, Stokers Siding, Uki, Tyalgum and Chillingham. If you live on a road between any of them, you are still in range. Call and ask.
Old cottages down at the river junction, where the damp sits under the floor.
Houses and sheds out on the cane flats north of town.
A hill village with bush up to the fence line on most blocks.
Acreage and timber homes under Wollumbin, well out of town.
The far end of the valley: farm sheds, open paddocks, long grass.
Rural blocks up towards the border, bush on three sides.
Further out? See every area we cover on the serviced areas page, or read the coast pages for Tweed Heads and Kingscliff.
The other half of the business
Hydro X started on the carpets. The machine stays in the truck and only the hose comes inside, and that is what makes the difference to drying: most homes are walk-on dry in hours, not days.
Carpet cleaning, lounge cleaning, mattress cleaning, tile and grout cleaning, stain removal and leather cleaning. Book it alongside a treatment and both trades happen in the one visit, up the valley or in town.
