Project overview

What this job involved

Elevations were reviewed for brick, stone, mortar, trim, and openings before cleaning. Treatment and rinse pressure were adjusted by material so porous masonry and adjacent finishes were not treated as one uniform surface.

Surfaces treated

  • Brick veneer
  • Natural or manufactured stone accents
  • Mortar joints
  • Adjacent trim and openings

Scope of work

  • Exterior scope review from photos and onsite conditions
  • Plant and property protection around the work zone
  • Material-adjusted soft washing of brick and stone elevations
  • Final review of rinse quality and remaining limitations

Result

Outcome
