Brick and stone cleaning experts

When do I need to clean my brickwork or stonework?

Brickwork and stonework may need cleaning if they show signs of discoloration, grime buildup, algae, moss, or soot. Regular maintenance keeps these surfaces looking their best while preventing long-term damage. Cleaning is especially important for brick fireplaces, where soot and smoke residue can accumulate quickly, or for exterior facades exposed to pollution and weathering.

How much does it cost to clean brick or stone?

The cost of cleaning brick or stone depends on the area size, cleaning method, and level of grime:

  • Brickwork Cleaning: Typically costs between £8 and £15 per square meter for professional cleaning.
  • Stonework Cleaning: Prices range from £10 to £20 per square meter, depending on the stone type and cleaning requirements.
  • Brick Fireplace Cleaning: Cleaning a brick fireplace typically costs between £100 and £250, depending on size and soot buildup.

Find an expert

How long does it take?

The time required to clean brick or stone depends on the size and condition of the area:

  • Small Areas or Fireplaces: These typically take 2-4 hours to clean.
  • Exterior Walls or Large Areas: Cleaning large sections of brick or stone can take 1-2 days, depending on accessibility and cleaning method

Other brick and stone cleaning FAQs

Can I clean brickwork or stonework myself?

DIY cleaning is possible for small areas, but professionals use specialized tools and cleaning agents to ensure a thorough and safe clean.

Will cleaning damage my brick or stone?

When done professionally, cleaning is safe and designed to protect the integrity of your surfaces.

What methods are used to clean brick and stone?

Common methods include pressure washing, steam cleaning, or chemical treatments tailored to the material and condition of the brick or stone.
