Acid Brick Washing


This technique has been developed and improved so that quality safety and efficiency of the service can be guaranteed.

The quality is provided by using our specially adapted machinery to pump a consistent carefully measured acid solution onto every brick in a wall. This automatically and reliably generates a completely uniform end result.

Traditionally acid brick washing has been done by hand using a bucket and brush. This method has the tendency to leave a mottled, patchy and un uniformed finish, particularly as it is difficulty to get to every brick with the same enthusiasm.

The safety is provided by never applying the acid under any form of pressure through a hand or machine type nozzle: The method we use with a low pressure pump without a nozzle is therefore always under control and the there is no fine spray to drift off the area being treated. This ensures the safety of other site workers and equipment.

The process is quick in comparison to a hand washing process which results in a reduces time we are on site and thus limits the potential of exposure of acids to other site workers and jobs in progress.

The metered dilutions of acid used in our system ensure the optimum amount is applied without compromising a quality finish or compromising the local environment.

We comply with the relevant Health and Safety directives and our staffs wear full PPE when on any construction site.

Due to the equipment and systems we use we are extremely quick to apply the acid and by using a cold water pressure washing machine afterwards we ensure all the brickwork is efficiently “finished” to a high standard.

This efficiency translates into competitive commercial rates when compared with other ways of acid brick washing.
