Brickwork Paint Removal in Newbury

February 4, 2011 in Blast Cleaning, Brickwork Paint Removal

A local building company asked us to remove many layers of paint from the exterior brickwork of this property, Tower House in Honington, Newbury, Berkshire.

The building was being completely renovated for the client who had no previous idea of the beautiful brickwork being hidden by the paint.

After we had removed all the paint from the brickwork the building was completely re-pointed.
