Facade cleaning in Central London
Central London packs the City's financial towers and Portland stone right up against the Regency stucco and listed retail frontages of Mayfair, St James's and Westminster. It is the densest, most heritage heavy stock in the country. You get a vetted central London specialist who handles towers and listed stucco alike, and prices it straight.
Built for central London's towers, stone and listed stucco
London tops our index for both high rise density and heritage load, and central London is where the two peak together. Curtain wall towers and Portland stone fill the City, while the West End and Westminster carry listed Georgian and Regency stucco, so the method swings from rope access glass cleaning to conservation grade stucco work street by street.
What gets cleaned
Cleaned by a central London specialist who uses the method the surface needs, from curtain wall glass to listed stucco.
Portland stone, Bath stone and painted stucco cleaned with the gentlest effective method, including DOFF and TORC where the City's stone and the West End's listed stucco need them.
Render and cladding on the post war and infill stock between the period buildings cleaned at low pressure, kept gentle to sit next to listed neighbours.
The City's curtain wall and high level glazing cleaned on rope access or from a cradle, the bread and butter work on the financial towers.
Each match is an IRATA certified, insured specialist we have already screened for Central London work, so the method statement and insurance certificate reach you before anything starts.

Cleaning facades across central London's mix of stone and brick
Central London packs Portland stone offices, Victorian brick, Georgian and Regency stucco and modern glass into a few square miles, often side by side and frequently in conservation areas. The right cleaning method changes from one material to the next, so the survey matters as much as the work.
Decades of traffic have left a carbon film on the stone and stucco, and the low-emission zone has not erased the soiling already in place. On soft stone and painted stucco, a gentle, low-pressure approach lifts that grime without opening the surface.
With so many listed buildings, an abrasive clean can cause damage that is costly to put right and may need consent. Our specialists match the technique to the fabric and survey the building before quoting.
