Professional Poultice Cleaning Services
Poultice cleaning is a specialised, water-free method of deep cleaning stone. It cleans gently, drawing out any contamination that has penetrated the surface which would be difficult or impossible to remove using other methods. It is the perfect solution for cleaning when the use of water, dust producing cleaning methods or chemical cleaning cannot be tolerated.
Cleaning masonry with poultices is one of the gentlest and safest ways of cleaning stonework. It produces astonishingly effective results. It is particularly suited for cleaning:
- Statues and other architectural detailing
- Soft or weakened stone
- Internal stonework
- Stucco, gypsum based plasters and wood
- Heavily stained stonework
- Carbon, soot and smoke staining
Sometimes building cleaning reveals underlying stains on the otherwise clean stonework. Poultice cleaning can be applied locally to remove or reduce the staining.
