Brick Cleaning · Wimbledon
Brick Cleaning in Wimbledon
Wimbledon covers two very different cleaning jobs. The Village and Parkside villas are high-value period properties where the priority is preserving patina and ornate detail, not scrubbing the facade back to new. Down the hill towards Southfields and the main roads it is straightforward traffic film on stock brick terraces, and the results are dramatic.
Local property types
Brick Cleaning for Wimbledon homes
Substantial Victorian and Edwardian villas, Arts and Crafts houses with tile hanging and decorative brick around the Common, and long runs of stock brick terrace towards Southfields and Haydons Road.
Heritage-standard work: sample panels agreed before we start, DOFF steam as the default, hand cleaning around carved and moulded detail, and a deliberate decision about how far to take it. Over-cleaning a Wimbledon villa looks worse than leaving it, and we would rather stop a shade early.
