Brick Cleaning in Putney
Putney frontages along the Lower Richmond Road, Upper Richmond Road and the High Street carry some of the heaviest traffic film we deal with, and the mansion blocks off the Heath collect organic growth on their shaded flanks. Both are stock brick, both need a low-pressure approach.
Local property types
Brick Cleaning for Putney homes
Victorian and Edwardian stock brick terraces, red-brick mansion blocks near the High Street and the river, and Edwardian semis towards Roehampton.
On terraces we tell the neighbours what is happening and when; on mansion blocks we give managing agents full RAMS, insurance and a method statement up front. Water is contained and the pavement is left clean each evening.

Brick Cleaning in Putney - your questions
Technically yes, but it will show. A single cleaned bay against a soiled facade looks worse than either - we would normally advise doing the whole elevation.
