A careful exterior restoration brought a detached home back to its original brick character. Years of yellow masonry paint were removed with a controlled, surface-conscious cleaning approach, revealing the colour, texture and coursing of the brickwork while retaining the property's traditional architectural details.

What was needed
How the surface was prepared.
Prepared and protected the house exterior, then progressively removed the aged masonry paint from the brick elevations using appropriately gentle blast-cleaning techniques. The work was focused on exposing sound, natural brick without unnecessary abrasion, with close attention to joints, edges, reveals and other period features. Final cleaning left the elevations visually consistent and ready for any follow-on repairs or breathable finishing decisions.
