What Causes Building Discolouration?
Typically, our technicians encounter the following factors during brick and stone cleaning, which contribute to the discolouration and neglected appearance of a building’s facade:
- General neglect: wear and tear that occurs over time
- Harsh weather: damp or humid conditions, buildings close to the coast
- Natural growths: algae, moss and other weeds, plants or fungi
- Modern day pollutants: traffic film, carbon deposits
Pollution levels are increasing within towns and cities across the UK. This results in residential and commercial buildings increasingly being exposed to pollutants. These not only alter a building’s appearance, but can also damage the architecture of a building. Periodical brick and/or stone cleans, alongside the use of specialist sealants, not only restores a building’s appearance but also helps to maintain a building’s façade.
