| Portland Stone paving following the first stage of cleaning |
The first stage in the cleaning of the Portland Stone paving at our project in Barham, Kent has been carried out.
The image above shows the same stretch of paving as the image posted on Friday 24th May following pressure washing. This has taken off a layer of dirt and grime allowing more of the stone's natural white colour to show through.
The more testing stages of the cleaning process are yet to come however, with each stone being lifted and then cleaned with wire brushes and mild detergent. This will help to remove the dirt and staining from the stone more thoroughly.
