Here we have some Old Victorian houses sometime have old lime-wash paint to the front lower elevations which can look unsightly.  We were initially instructed to carry out paint removal on the brickwork of the house on the left.  However the next door neighbour was so impressed with the results that he asked us to remove the paint from the brickwork on his property as well.

Very careful and sympathetic blast cleaning to remove the old paint from these beams in this grade 2 listed property as part of a full renovation.

Blasting was carried out before the woodworm treatment to allow the fluid to penetrate into the timbers and kill any wood worm.

These elm beams had been painted many times over the years and made the room look dark and oppressive.

By removing the many layers of paint and exposing the beams once again, the building has been restored to its former glory.
