Techrete cleaning facade undergoes deep clean at Hanover Quay

Client: Savills

Techrete is a delicate and thin render that requires a gentle approach when it comes to cleaning. All columns and beams were cleaned using a combination of a Biocide chemical and low pressure steam to remove dirt and carbon contamination. Worked was carried out over 2 weekends from an 86 ft Hoist. Once cleaned the entire facade was sealed to help slow down re-contamination.

Facade Restoration

Pmac breathes new life into building facades and public areas by removing grime, growth, grease, oil and carbon deposits from stone surfaces. Our specialist stone cleaning services cover facade cleaning, walkways, bridges and pavements. We also rejuvenate modern renders such as Monocouche,Techrete and Cladding. These are very thin renders that can’t withstand any pressure cleaning and must be treated with extreme care. If you have grimy and damaged stone or render, we can clean and restore it.

There are a variety of methods used to clean facades depending on the substrate (chemicals, biocides, steam, façade gommage® system – as featured in the video below). Too many buildings are spoiled because the incorrect methods are used.
