Steam Cleaning and Stonework Restoration

At LADS, we’re continuing to expand our specialist restoration services with the introduction of DOFF‑style steam cleaning — a highly controlled, low‑pressure, super‑heated steam system designed for cleaning delicate, historic and conservation‑grade surfaces.

This method allows us to remove algae, moss, paint residues, carbon staining and biological growth without damaging the underlying material. Because the steam is delivered at high temperature but low pressure, it’s safe for:

• Heritage stone and listed brickwork
• Delicate render and façade finishes
• Monuments, memorials and conservation sites
• Architectural details that cannot withstand abrasive cleaning

Our DOFF‑style system is especially effective where traditional pressure washing or chemical treatments would be too harsh. It provides a clean, controlled finish while protecting the integrity of older or sensitive building materials.

Whether you’re maintaining a historic property or refreshing a weathered façade, our team delivers a restoration‑grade clean with minimal disruption and maximum care.
