Water-Based Paint Removal

As heritage brick restoration professionals, we can safely remove masonry paint from your brickwork and restore the material underneath. Applying masonry paint to brick or stone makes it difficult for the material to breathe – and, over time, a painted property can become susceptible to damage.

In order to ensure that your property receives the ultimate in expertise when it comes to paint removal, we use modern ThermaTech equipment for all water-based removal. This system produces a high-temperature spray that carefully removes paint and other matter from a wide range of materials – and is perfectly safe for your property.

In every instance, we will perform a small test on the paint, to see how it reacts, and then decide which process will be the most effective and safe for your property – we’ll always let you know our strategy for your home.
