Brick Cleaning
Restoring to The Original Condition Brick cleaning Restoration
Our qualifications and over 20 years of experience cleaning bricks in London allow us to offer the highest quality brick cleaning restoration service which is safe for both the cleaned surface and environment. There are many different brick cleaning appliances available. However, not every method is eco-friendly and safe for the cleaned surface. Unfortunately, some companies use extremely corrosive chemicals and highly abrasive sandblasting. Unlike them, here at S.J. Pointer, we choose to provide both professional and safe brick cleaning restoration service in London.
Brick cleaning methods
- Steam brick cleaning
- Sodablasting
- Vortex brick cleaning
Our methods Brick Cleaning Techniques
Steam Brick Cleaning
To perform steam brick cleaning, we use the DOFF system. The high temperature of superheated water removes algae, moss, fungi and other biological matter. The pressure of the steam is low, so there is no damage to the substrate. The temperature also kills spores. As a result, there is no need to use chemicals for protection against any further biological activity. The steam system is also perfect for removing paint from brick.
Sodablasting
Can be performed through wet or dry cleaning, which allows us to use this technique both inside and outside of the property. Blasting soda is an extremely brittle material that undergoes micro fragmentation on impact. It explodes away any surface materials, yet it does not cause any damage to the substrate. We use the sodablasting technique for masonry restoration to clean dirt and grease off the brick.
Vortex Brick Cleaning
Most often, we use it for cleaning delicate surfaces, such as natural stone, faience or terracotta. This technique uses different fine blasting materials such as stone powder, calcite, olivine. The type of surface determines which blasting material we use.
Storm dry Water Resistance Enhancement
To enhance water resistance and energy performance of your masonry, we offer certified Storm Dry protection service. It revolves around utilising a colourless, breathable, water-repellent barrier which increases the water-resisting properties of the walls. This results in maximised thermal resistance of dry masonry. The effectiveness of BBA certified Storm Dry in increasing water-resistance when used on concrete, mortar, brick, sandstone and likewise is 25-years.
