The Challenge

To carry out urgent removal of paint from the stone and masonry as well as brick cleaning of the residential house.

APT’s Solution

We were called to remove the graffiti after someone had sprayed graffiti over parts of the residential house.

We suggested the best solution was to clean the whole of the house in order to attain a consistent ascetic finish.

We used the soda blasting method to remove the pollutant using a Vortex II Blast Head and just 1.5 bar air pressure to remove the hardened graffiti from the stone and engineered brick face to achieve the desired finish.

APT were very instrumental in helping us solve a major problem. We really couldn’t see a way out of our situation without spending thousands and using a lot of resources, until Andrew came onto site and offered some very practical advice not only about Soda Blasting but other aspects of the job.

Andrew Evans – Royal Mint

“I called APT in due to the very nature of our site here at the Royal Mint and the need for a professional, accredited company. APT successfully cleaned the building façade, safely and easily with a high level of competence.”
Gee construction – Tim Luke

“We employed the services of APT to renovate a grade 2 listed building. Under the directive of Cadw we were not allowed to use any wet process or chemicals within the interior of the building. APT blasted sandstone, brick, ceramic glazed tiles, metal work, paintwork on ceilings, coving, woodwork and ornate fixtures. It was a great achievement to have one system for all the surfaces that needed cleaning and restoring and one that also ticked all the boxes of the environmental and conservation officers. The process saved us both time & money in being able to have just one company on site. We are very grateful to APT for their hard work on this project.”
Dave Nicoll – Burleigh Church – Site Manager

“The superior finish left by Soda blasting saved us days of skilled labour and costs too. We tested two areas of paint and varnish removal on wood, (which was tongue & grooved) one using sodablast and the other using traditional methods of chemical paint remover. Soda blast by far outweighed the chemicals in terms of time, finish and its environmental properties; there was absolutely no comparison at all. We also used the soda blasting on the whole exterior stone work, incredible clean finish. I highly recommend them and will definitely be using Sodablast again for any architectural buildings I work on.”
