Title: smoke damaged brickwork
Post by: Jake on September 23, 2005, 04:09:51 pm

We have been asked to price a pressure wash down of smoke damaged brickwork. Has anyone on the forum got any advice regarding a suitable chemical to use?  :-\

jake, the way forward with smoke damage ive found  is to sand blast it thats one of the survices i provide as it came with the kit i brought,i tryed saturated steam through the hot machine ive got first, but it would only take top layer of it and would still leave a stain on brick hope this helps?

Thanks for the tip, we actually did the job today, and would have to say we got rid of 95% of the smoke damage, it looks kosher! Nice earner too!!!!
