Steam cleaning uses heat with low-volume, low-pressure delivery to lift grime, grease and organic growth from delicate surfaces. It is our choice where high pressure could pit stone, wash out pointing or damage a finish.
Steam loosens dirt and staining with heat, so we do not need aggressive pressure that can erode soft stone or open up joints.
We assess the material before choosing steam, soft washing or pressure washing, and explain why we recommend it.
Hot steam is hazardous, so we keep children, pets and passers-by clear of the work area while equipment is running.

Steam Cleaning vs Pressure Washing for Delicate Stone & Masonry: What Conservation Guidance SaysSee what conservation guidance says about choosing the gentlest effective method, and where steam cleaning has limits.
We're fully insured with public liability coverage, so both homeowners and businesses can book with confidence. Every job starts with a free, no-obligation estimate, and we'll always flag anything beyond a standard clean before we proceed.
When force is the risk: delicate natural stone, older masonry and pointing, and decorative finishes. For tougher surfaces, pressure washing is usually the better tool.
Steam is gentler than high pressure, but every surface is different. We assess the material first and flag anything fragile before we start.
Steam cleans mainly with heat. If we think a treatment would help with biological growth, we will tell you at quote stage so you can decide.
