Painted masonry can trap moisture, peel, and need repainting every few years. Removing the paint lets the wall breathe again and brings back the original character of the brick or stone.
The right removal method depends on the paint, the number of layers and what is underneath. We test first, then choose between steam, low-pressure abrasive and stripping systems to take the coating off without scarring the surface.
On listed buildings, removing paint can need consent. We'll explain what's involved before any work starts.

“Absolutely transformed our sandstone farmhouse. The render was black and we'd given up hope. Spartan brought it back to life in one day. Couldn't be happier.”
“Used them to clean the render and repoint our listed building. Professional from start to finish. The conservation officer was happy too, which says it all.”
“The driveway looks brand new. They were on time, tidy, and the price was fair. Will definitely use again for the back of the house.”

It depends on the material. Harder surfaces and metalwork suit sandblasting well, but softer and historic stone often doesn't. We test first and, where it's the better option, recommend a gentler method such as Thermatech steam cleaning.
Yes. We follow conservation guidelines and use the gentlest method that gets the result. Listed buildings often need listed building consent before exterior cleaning, so we'll explain our proposed method so you can discuss it with your conservation officer first.
