Over time, pollution, biological growth, and weathering can dull the beauty of natural stone. Weldon Stone provides specialist stone cleaning services that restore appearance safely - preserving both surface detail and structural integrity.
Cleaning stone requires sensitivity and expertise. We use proven, heritage-approved methods such as DOFF and steam cleaning, soft bristle brushing, and low-pressure rinsing to remove grime, algae, and atmospheric soiling without damaging the stone surface.
Each method is selected based on the stone type, age, and condition to ensure effective results with no risk to delicate carving or patina.
Before any cleaning begins, we carry out a site inspection to determine the stone’s condition and identify any underlying issues, such as salt movement or decayed pointing.
This careful assessment ensures that cleaning enhances the stone’s appearance while supporting its long-term health and stability.
From church façades and heritage monuments to private homes and estate walls, our cleaning services reveal the natural character of stone without stripping away its history.
We approach each project with the same respect and precision as our restoration work -ensuring results that are both beautiful and responsible.
