Brick cleaning

Immaculate Exteriors can easily wash away common surface grime from masonry surfaces with hot water or steam under pressure.

However, buildings in London can suffer from the
more serious effects years of atmospheric pollution. Brick can become stained black with carbon, either darkening the appearance of the entire building
or creating unsightly and uneven patches on the façade. Water and detergent alone will not
remove these stains.

Immaculate Exteriors removes the unattractive effects of pollution by using specialist chemicals that dissolve the deposits. We apply the chemical, leave it for 5 minutes and then thoroughly rinse the surface with cold water.
The process may need to be repeated two or three times on particularly blackened areas.

 

The contrast in colour is dramaticThe effect of this process is dramatic. We are so used to seeing the effects of pollution in London that we forget that bricks are often an attractive yellow or red colour. Bringing these colours out from behind the grey really transforms the appearance of a property.

This process does not damage the brick
or solid pointing, as sand-blasting does.

Please contact us to discuss your requirements regarding brick cleaning.

As the degree and stubbornness of carbon staining varies greatly between buildings we prefer to view sites before providing a quotation
