Brick Cleaning Cleator Moor

Many people assume that a brick wall is low maintenance. It is designed to be outside and to handle the elements, so it shouldn't require too much intervention - right? Well, unfortunately, to maintain its brilliance, brick needs to be regularly cleaned.

Clean bricks can really make a difference when it comes to the appearance of a property. Whether you've painted over the brick, there's graffiti, or even just discolouration from the usual Cleator Moor weather - getting rid of it can completely restore a building.

At NW Wash we understand that all too well. That's why we offer expert brick cleaning services and paint removal. As a brick cleaning company in Cleator Moor, we are experts in our field. No matter what brick cleaning services are needed, we can handle it.

Why are bricks used in construction

Why are bricks used in construction?

If they require so much maintenance, why is it that bricks are so common in British construction?

Bricks are incredibly durable and strong, which lends them to a whole range of construction needs. Buildings built from bricks last a lifetime and then some, and the brick facade ages well (even better when it is maintained and cleaned regularly).

Bricks are designed to be fire resistant, lending themselves to both industrial and residential construction uses. They're also resistant to rot, unlike wood and thatch. Their structure, being dense, means that they offer protection against pets, and also makes them shockingly weather resistant.

Different brick materials

Since bricks are used so commonly, there are a number of different materials used to make them. Each type of brick is designed for a different purpose.

The most popular types of brick are:

  • Burnt clay bricks: made with wet clay and dried, then burnt in a kiln to get their typical reddish colour. They're used in walls and foundations.
  • Concrete blocks: stone blocks made out of concrete, these are used for fences or inside walls.
  • Sand lime bricks: made by mixing sand, fly ash, and lime. They have a characteristic grey colour and are strong enough to bear loads.
  • Fly ash clay bricks: made by mixing clay and fire ash, these are heat resistant and they can expand with moisture. They're used for foundation and structural walls.
  • Fire bricks: clay bricks are made at very high temperatures, making them ideal for fireplaces, chimneys, or furnaces.

Different brick cleaners

One of the reasons that brick cleaning companies are so important is because there are so many different ways of cleaning brickwork, and each cleaning method is best suited to a different type of brick. For example, the best technique of stone cleaning is not likely to work on delicate bricks.

As brick cleaning experts, everyone on our team is familiar with the different brick cleaners and how they interact with the brick surfaces.

These cleaners are all used alongside tools and techniques such as a stiff brush, pressure washing, sponges and water-fed poles.

During our brick cleaning process, we might use:

  • Brick acid: this kind of cleaner is an acid-based solution that contains hydrochloric acid. It removes carbon deposits, rust, and most stains. It's one of the most powerful cleaning solutions out there, but it is also incredibly dangerous and it can burn skin, vegetation, and fabric. Using brick acid requires specific instruction and skill, especially considering it has to be left on the wall for a period of time before being rinsed off. One of the most common examples of brick acid cleaner is muriatic acid, which is great at getting rid of efflorescence from bricks and concrete stains.
  • Moss and mildew removers: brick is incredibly prone to organic growth. Mould, mildew, and algae all find their home on brickwork on a regular basis. To remove them, specially designed cleaning solutions are available. They help combat the mould caused by the damp British weather. Many of these products are bleach-based, which means they do have the power to be dangerous and to discolour brick if used incorrectly.
  • Degreasing agents: brick around fireplaces and furnaces will often develop grease stains and marks. These can be incredibly difficult to remove without the right solution. A brick degreasing agent can help to restore the brick to its original beauty.
  • Paint removers: people often paint over brickwork and then come to regret it. Alternatively, people paint over bricks and then forget to touch up the paintwork over time. The result is chipped, damaged paint that needs to be removed.

With the help of specially designed paint thinner and removal, a brick cleaning company like NW Wash can remove paint easily. However, the solution must be used carefully as it has harmful fumes.

How long does cleaning bricks take?

At NW Wash we are aware that whether you're a residential customer or a commercial one, you are unlikely to want strangers in and around your home or property for any length of time.

With that in mind, we try to do every one of our jobs as quickly and efficiently as possible. Fortunately, with some jobs like jet washing and steam cleaning, brick restoration is pretty quick. Unfortunately, some stone cleaning jobs take longer. For example, brick walls that need chemical cleaning may require a few more hours, as might any wall with stubborn stains.
