Buildings in Aldgate are exposed to
Brick is naturally porous, which means it absorbs moisture and airborne particles over time. In busy urban areas like Aldgate, this often results in darkened or uneven surfaces, especially on sheltered façades.
While this staining is common, it does not mean the brick cannot be restored.
Our goal is always to remove staining while protecting the structural integrity of the building.
That’s why we carefully assess every Aldgate property before choosing the appropriate cleaning method.
Each building type requires a tailored approach. We take care to match cleaning methods to the age and condition of the brick.
Clean brickwork also helps buildings look well-maintained and professional — especially important for commercial properties.

Many Aldgate property owners choose to combine brick cleaning and repointing for complete restoration.
Many Aldgate buildings were constructed using traditional London stock bricks and lime mortar. These materials require careful handling.
