Specialist Brick Cleaning Services
Our bespoke range of brick cleaning services are second to none.
We’re able to provide a service like no other for customers based in Faversham.
The use of red brick in construction has been a popular choice in the UK for centuries. With proper care and maintenance, bricks can last up to 650 years. This is because brick is a durable and energy-efficient material that can withstand the test of time.
Weather conditions, pollution, and general wear and tear can cause damage to brick walls and structures, which can be unsightly and lead to deterioration over time. Historical buildings may need repointing or complete replacement of some bricks.
At ICE Cleaning, we offer eco-friendly brick cleaning services to maintain their quality and appearance. Our team of experts uses the TORIK Brick Cleaning System, a highly effective and efficient method for removing any stains or damage. We are dedicated to meeting those needs and providing 24/7 availability all year long with nationwide coverage.

Are there eco-friendly cleaning methods?
The type of cleaning method used to clean bricks depends on the type and the extent of the damage it has sustained. For instance, bricks exposed to fire and soot may require more aggressive cleaning methods to remove the stains.
Cleaning companies may use abrasive techniques like sandblasting or soda blasting to remove tough stains. However, it is important to note that these methods can damage the brick surface if not done correctly.
Other cleaning companies may use corrosive chemicals to clean bricks, which is not ideal as it can cause damage to the material and affect its structural integrity. Therefore, eco-friendly cleaning methods to gently clean the surface without causing damage are preferred.
This may include steam cleaning, which uses hot water and steam to loosen and remove dirt and stains, or chemical-free cleaning, which uses only water and mild detergent to clean the surface.
How water absorption can damage your brick
One drawback of bricks is their porous nature, which makes them susceptible to moisture absorption over time. Consequently, this vulnerability can lead to various issues, such as the damaging freeze-thaw effect, resulting in cracks and flaking.
It is crucial to inspect your drainage systems regularly and ensure that no water accumulates around your property. Pooled water can seep into the brickwork and cause lasting damage if not addressed immediately. You should routinely check your gutters and downspouts for blockages to prevent water from accumulating on your property.
To protect your bricks from water damage, a surface application of waterproofing sealant can help deter moisture absorption. You can effectively waterproof your bricks, preventing water from getting trapped inside and significantly prolonging their lifespan.

Why pressure washing can damage your brick
Due to the porous nature of bricks, it is essential to employ gentle cleaning techniques such as our TORIK Brick Cleaning System, which utilises steam to restore the brick surface. Using a pressure washer on bricks can be detrimental, as the water is easily absorbed by the bricks, potentially causing severe damage.
Pressure washers can strip away the natural waterproofing elements of brickwork, leading to the risk of denting, creating holes, and causing chipping in the bricks. The high-pressure water can cause excessive water absorption, making the bricks susceptible to potential frost damage.
