Precision is paramount when working with historic masonry. Surfix Laser recently completed a delicate restoration on a 300-year-old brick façade in Yorkshire, removing centuries of biological growth and carbon staining to reveal the original face of the brick.
For historic brickwork of this age, traditional cleaning—such as pressure washing or harsh chemical cleaning—poses a significant risk of surface erosion and irreversible damage. Our pulsed laser technology offers a non-abrasive, contact-free alternative that prioritizes the structural integrity of the substrate.
Why choose Surfix Laser for stone and masonry?
Surgical Accuracy: We selectively remove contaminants (moss, algae, and carbon build-up) while leaving the delicate, aged surface of the 300-year-old brick completely untouched.
Chemical-Free: By avoiding harsh solvents, we ensure no chemical run-off affects the surrounding area environment or leaches into the historic lime mortar.
Surface Integrity: Unlike abrasive methods that strip away the "fired" protective layer of the brick, our laser cleaning respects the original patina and ensures long-term preservation.
Beyond stone and brick restoration, we provide a full suite of surface preparation services for wood and metal, including professional finishing to protect your assets for the future.
