Professional Brick Cleaning Services in West London

Professional Brick Cleaning Services in West London

The prestige of West London’s architecture—from the grand stucco-fronted terraces of Paddington to the warm red-brick facades of Chiswick—is often hidden beneath decades of urban pollutants. Carbon soot from London traffic, organic growth, and failed masonry paint can mask the beauty and threaten the structural health of your home.

Safe Cleaning for West London Heritage

For West London properties, especially those in Conservation Areas or Grade II listed status, we exclusively utilize the DOFF Superheated Steam system.

Why DOFF is the Preferred Method

150°C Superheated Steam

At this temperature, the steam melts away carbon crusting, bitumen, and biological spores (moss and algae) instantly.

Low Pressure

The pressure at the nozzle is no stronger than a garden hose. This ensures the "fire-skin" of the brick and the delicate edges of carved stone are never eroded.

No Chemicals

The DOFF system uses only water. It is 100% environmentally friendly and safe for use in the busy residential streets of Ealing, Hammersmith, and Kensington.

Our Specialist Cleaning Solutions

Carbon Soot & Pollution Removal

West London’s central boroughs like Soho and Paddington have faced over a century of industrial and traffic pollution. This creates a hard “black crust” that traps moisture. Our steam cleaning effectively removes this crust, allowing the building to breathe again.

Biological Growth Eradication

In the leafy suburbs of Queen’s Park and Hanwell, damp and shade often lead to algae and moss growth. The high heat of the DOFF system kills the spores deep within the masonry, preventing regrowth for much longer than standard cleaning methods.

TORC Vortex Cleaning

For particularly stubborn staining or delicate stone sculptures, we utilize the TORC system. This creates a gentle, swirling vortex of low-pressure air, a little water, and a fine granulate to “peel” away dirt and scale from stone sills and porticos.

Why Brick Cleaning is Critical Before Repointing

If you are planning to repoint your West London home, cleaning is a vital first step.

Adhesion
Removing soot and grime from the "bed" of the joint ensures the new lime mortar bonds perfectly to the brick.
Color Matching
It is impossible to match the color of new mortar to a dirty wall. Cleaning first allows us to blend a bespoke mortar that matches the original brick color.
Inspection
Cleaning reveals hidden cracks or loose bricks that were previously obscured by dirt.

Expert Guidance on Brick Cleaning West London

Find clear answers to common questions about our brick cleaning services in West London, including methods, safety, heritage properties, and what to expect from professional brick cleaning specialists.

Is the DOFF system messy for neighbors?

The DOFF system uses very little water, so there is minimal runoff. We use professional masking and protection for windows and doorways, ensuring your property and your neighbor's property stay clean.

Can you clean the white salt marks (Efflorescence)?

Yes. While salt staining can be stubborn, our steam cleaning and specialized non-acidic treatments can remove the salt and help diagnose the underlying moisture issue.

Do I need a permit for the street?

For properties in busy areas like Soho or Kensington, we manage all necessary pavement licenses and scaffolding permits with the local council on your behalf.
