Sandblasting Brick and Stone There are various methods of brick cleaning, stone cleaning or removing paint and old coatings from walls and buildings. We have many methods, to determine the most suitable we always carry out a test clean to ensure best cleaning results and no damage. Building cleaning carried out by experienced operatives using the correct abrasive, techniques and pressures can be very effective. We have restored many old buildings, with outstanding results and no two jobs are the same, each new surface to be cleaned needs to be tested to find the right solutions so that achieving the desired result does not damage the surface. The use of water, wet blasting with the abrasive offers an environmentally friendly alternative but with the same impressive results. Cleaning brick to the original look can substantially increase the value of your home or building.

Soda Blasting is an alternative to sandblasting when cleaning brick or cleaning stone A specially formulated sodium bicarbonate medium is directed onto the surface at high pressure. No abrasive damage to the substrate, non toxic and the soda blast medium dissolves in water leaving only the residue from the cleaned brick surface. Blast Cleaning with Soda is especially effective when Soda Blasting Boats or stripping paint from car bodies.

Dry Ice Blasting CO2 is similar in operation to sandblasting but has benefits when cleaning brick & stonework. Dry ice will not damage the surface because the cleaning media is made of CO2 which has little or no abrasion. C02 is converted into ice pellets which is then used as the blasting media and fired at the surface to be cleaned. As the pellets hit the surface at a high velocity they revert back to a gaseous state (sublimate) and literally 'vanish into thin air' leaving nothing to pollute the surrounding atmosphere and no mess to contaminate or clear away. The only residue will be the material removed from the surface being cleaned. No Mess No Pollution No Problem
