Of all the changes a building can undergo, cleaning the exterior masonry is one of the most visually dramatic. Exposing the original color of the masonry by cleaning it brings about impressive improvements. This is especially true in the appearance of many urban buildings blackened by industrial pollution. It is a process which changes not only the fundamental appearance of historic masonry buildings, but also the environmental context in which they exist.
While visual improvements brought about by cleaning historic masonry should not be underestimated, neither should the dangers. Irreversible damage has been caused to thousands of historic masonry structures by unscrupulous contractors. Unskilled and hurried workers using inappropriate cleaning techniques have caused permanent damage to our country’s masonry heritage. There is no reason to let it happen to you. We use only tested and trusted chemical companies such as prosoco which carry multiple product lines including the sureklean line that is a familiar brand in the masonry restoration and cleaning industry, they also carry products for graffiti removal and control.
