Cleaning building façades can enhance appearance, but may also make the building more unsightly and damage the walling materials. Trials can help determine appropriate methods, risks involved and if cleaning is warranted.
Part 1 of this Good Repair Guide outlines actions to take before cleaning and describes the methods available.
Part 2 gives advice on the methods and precautions for different types of soiling on different wall surfaces to help surveyors and contractors.
