01

Method

The safest effective method is chosen for the particular brick and mortar. If blasting is likely to damage the face, joints or finish, the project should be reconsidered rather than forced.

02

Preparation

Windows, doors, vents, adjoining finishes and nearby property are protected. External work is planned around access, neighbours and containment needs.

03

Aftercare

Cleaned masonry may need repointing, drying time or a separate decorative treatment. These next stages are assessed independently.

Brick Cleaning FAQ

Details that affect the plan.

Can all paint be removed from brick?

Not automatically. Results depend on paint type, number of layers, brick condition and how deeply the coating has penetrated. A test patch is the best starting point.

Will the mortar joints be protected?

The method and pressure are selected with the mortar condition in mind. Fragile or failing joints may need repair advice before cleaning proceeds.
