When it comes to brick cleaning, there are many options available, including the use of brick cleaning acid and other natural solutions. However, at APT, we choose not to use these methods and instead opt for more effective and safer cleaning methods.
In this article, we will discuss why we avoid using brick cleaning acid, and instead rely on more modern and safer techniques to achieve exceptional results.
Brick Cleaning acid is a highly corrosive substance that can cause serious damage to the brickwork and surrounding environment. It is also a dangerous material to handle, as it can cause severe burns and respiratory problems.
At APT, we prioritise safety for both our team and our clients, and as such, we choose not to use brick cleaning acid in our cleaning processes.
Instead of brick cleaning acid, we utilise more modern and effective techniques such as high-pressure steam cleaning, soda blasting, and TORC cleaning.
Super-heated steam cleaning is an effective method for removing dirt, grime, and other stains from brickwork. It involves using a high-pressure jet of superheated water vapor to clean the surface without causing any damage to the brickwork.
Soda blasting is a gentle, non-abrasive method of brick cleaning that uses bicarbonate of soda to remove dirt and grime. It is a highly effective and environmentally friendly method, as it does not produce any harmful chemicals or byproducts.
TORC Cleaning
TORC cleaning is a gentle and highly effective method of brick cleaning that uses a specially designed machine to deliver a fine mist of compressed air, water, and inert material to the surface. It is ideal for removing paint, graffiti, and other stubborn stains without causing any damage to the brickwork.
By choosing APT for your brick cleaning needs, you can rest assured that we will use the most modern and effective cleaning techniques available to achieve exceptional results. Additionally, our team of experienced professionals is trained to handle even the most complex brick cleaning projects, ensuring that your property is restored to its original condition.
At APT, our brick cleaning process involves the following steps:
Site Visit and Assessment
Before beginning any brick cleaning project, our team will conduct a site visit and assessment to determine the best approach. We take into account the condition of the brickwork, its age, and any previous restoration work that has been carried out. Based on this assessment, we will select the most appropriate cleaning method and determine any necessary safety measures to protect your property.
Surface Preparation
Before cleaning the brickwork, it is important to properly prepare the surface. This includes removing any loose dirt, grime, or other debris using high-pressure washing, wire brushing, or a combination of both. This step helps to ensure that the cleaning solution is able to penetrate the brickwork effectively, and that the end result is a clean and uniform finish.
Cleaning
Once the surface has been prepared, we will begin the cleaning process using the appropriate method for your specific project. This may include sandblasting, steam cleaning, or chemical cleaning. Our team of experts will use their years of experience to select the best method for your particular needs, ensuring that the process is as effective and efficient as possible. Our cleaning products are eco-friendly & approved for being safe to use on brickwork, without causing damage.
Rinse
After the cleaning process is complete, we will thoroughly rinse the brickwork with clean water to remove any cleaning residue. This is an important step that ensures that no cleaning solution remains on the surface, which could cause damage to the brickwork over time.
Inspection
Finally, we will conduct a thorough inspection of the brickwork to ensure that the cleaning has been completed to our high standards. Our team of experts will carefully examine the surface for any remaining stains or discoloration, and will touch up any areas as necessary to ensure that the end result is a clean and uniform finish.
