Cleaning Systems

The method matters as much as the effort. Here's how we clean, what each system suits, and — just as importantly — where each one is the wrong choice.

The right tool for the job

Most damage done to buildings during cleaning comes from using the wrong method rather than from a lack of skill — soft stone blasted with a pressure washer, render stripped by a jet lance, a chemical left on a surface it was never meant for. We choose the system after assessing the surface material and the contaminant, not before, and most real jobs use more than one.

Everything we run is mobile and self-contained, with our own water and power, so we don't need anything connected on site to get started.

Steam & Hot-Water Cleaning

Superheated water and steam delivered at low pressure. It lifts graffiti, moss, algae and atmospheric grime off delicate surfaces without the force that causes damage — and the heat kills spores, so growth is slower to return.

High-Pressure Water Jetting

Water at high pressure and flow, with rotary heads for large flat areas. The fastest way to clean durable hard surfaces — car park decks, service yards, block paving and concrete — where the substrate can take the force.

Chemical Cleaning & Poultices

Where heat and water aren't enough. Solvent-based removers, degreasers, biocides and drawing poultices, matched to the contaminant and the substrate — the method that gets paint out of porous stone rather than off the top of it.

Chemical-Free Cleaning

Heat, water and technique, with nothing added. Where a site can't accept chemical residues — schools, nurseries, play areas, healthcare and food premises — this is usually the method that gets the work signed off.

Specialist Access

Getting to the work safely. Powered access, towers, water-fed poles and traffic management for anything above ground level — bridges, gable ends, high-level tags and multi-storey elevations.

Anti-Graffiti Coatings

A protective barrier between the surface and the next tag. Sacrificial coatings wash off with the graffiti and are re-applied; permanent coatings stay put for years. Neither prevents graffiti — both make removing it a five-minute job instead of a specialist visit.
