At White Acre Stonemasonry, we specialise in stone cleaning and replacement, ensuring that your property remains stunning and structurally sound for years to come.
The Importance of Stone Cleaning and Replacement
Over time, buildings can suffer from the effects of weather, pollution, and general wear and tear. For homes built with Bath Stone, a particular type of limestone quarried in the Bath area, the aesthetic and structural integrity can be significantly impacted by dirt and decay.
Stone cleaning is essential to preserve the appearance and longevity of your building. Neglected stone surfaces can lead to more severe damage, requiring costly repairs. At White Acre Stonemasonry, our stone cleaning and replacement services are designed to tackle these issues head-on, ensuring your property remains in pristine condition.
Bath Stone: A Heritage Material
Bath Stone is renowned for its warm, honey-coloured appearance and has been used in some of the most iconic buildings in the UK. It’s a material that not only adds to the beauty of your home but also holds historical significance. However, Bath Stone is also porous and can be susceptible to damage from pollutants and moisture.
At White Acre Stonemasonry, we understand the unique characteristics of Bath Stone. Our team of specialists is trained to handle this delicate material with the care and expertise it demands. Whether you need a thorough cleaning or replacement of damaged stones, we have the skills and tools to restore your Bath Stone to its former glory.
Our Advanced Cleaning Techniques: ThermaTech and Nebulous Water Spray
At White Acre Stonemasonry, we use the latest technologies to provide the best stone cleaning services. Two of our most effective methods are the ThermaTech and Nebulous Water Spray cleaning systems.
ThermaTech Cleaning
The ThermaTech system uses superheated water to gently remove dirt, biological growth, and other pollutants from stone surfaces. This method is highly effective for cleaning without causing damage to the stone, making it ideal for sensitive materials like Bath Stone.
Nebulous Water Spray Cleaning
The Nebulous Water Spray system is another advanced technique we employ. It uses a fine mist of water to slowly dissolve and wash away dirt and grime. This method is particularly suitable for historic buildings and delicate stone surfaces, as it minimises the risk of damage.
