Cleaning For Effect

Photos of Cleaning

From garden walls and patios to city centre paving and historic properties we are equally pleased to be asked to clean any of them.  Although one example of cleaning stone brickwork or timber is much like another we hope you find this small selection of photos interesting.

This clay pammet and brick floor was cleaned using DOFF and Aquilla steam equipment combined with vacuum recovery equipment.  The DOFF cleaning revealed the attractive colours and the floor was then sealed to protect it from future spillages.  Note the sealer we used is indescernable and produced a natural appearance.

This Georgian style facade was actually built around 1860 and was an addition to a much older Cambridgeshire house.  We gently under-cleaned the brickwork using the JOS/TORC micro abrasive system so as not to leave it looking "new".

We are equally pleased to be asked to clean your stone patio and use the same careful procedures.  This composite stone has previously been pressure washed many times before and is starting to show surface wear.  If you are in any doubt ask the paving manufacturer for advice about cleaning their product or contact us and we'll do it for you.  Philip Wright - Kimbolton Restoration.
