Years of traffic pollution, algae and weathering can make even good brickwork look tired. A careful clean can bring back the original colour and texture of your brick and make a huge difference to the look of your home.
What we can remove
- General dirt and traffic grime
- Green algae, moss and lichen
- Soot and carbon staining
- Mortar smears and cement staining left from earlier work
- White salt deposits (efflorescence) and some types of rust staining
- Graffiti
Why the method matters
The wrong cleaning method can strip the hard outer face from a brick, leaving it to absorb water and crumble in frost. We look at the brick and the type of staining first, then choose a method that suits them.
Every job starts with a test patch in a discreet area so you can see the result before we go further.
Protecting your property
We cover windows, doors, plants and paths, and control water run-off while we work. Find out more about the precautions we take.
Often paired with
Once brickwork is clean, worn joints and damaged bricks are easier to see. Many customers combine cleaning with repointing or brick tinting for a complete finish. For painted brick, see paint removal.
