Restoration Cleaning

The Importance of Restoration Cleaning

With historic masonry there are several reasons for cleaning a historic masonry building: improve the appearance of the building by removing unattractive dirt,soiling materials, or non-historic paint from the masonry; remove carbon; retard deterioration by removing soiling materials that may be damaging the masonry; or provide a clean surface to accurately match re-pointing mortars or patching compounds, or to conduct a condition survey of the masonry.  With the proper cleaning, this brick is given a fresh, bright, new look.

GRAFFITI AND STAIN REMOVAL

Graffiti removal is very complex due to orchestrating the removal without damaging existing substrates. Stain removal is also challenging as the variety of substances to remove can include rust, carbon buildup, asphalt, tar, algae, efflorescence, and lime run.  Each type of stain can require its own specific cleaner. However, with the knowledgeable graffiti and stain removal experts at Staat Inc., you can feel confident that the right cleaners will be chosen, giving you fast, effective results.
