Why Use Environ Property Services For Brickwork Paint Removal?
Different paints and renders require specific equipment and chemicals to remove, and using the wrong method can damage the wall.
For example, plastic-based paints should be removed with a combination of solvents and high-powered steam jets, while acid washes can be used for lime-based paints and general grime.
This is likely to remove some of the mortar, which may also have eroded beneath the paint, so repointing is often combined with removing paint.
Various damage to the brick wall is also expected, and it must be repaired. Read more about how exterior paint damages brick walls below.
It’s essential that you hire contractors to remove paint who can identify which materials have been used and how to look after buildings of all ages.
Our director, Terry Clark, is a member of the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings and is dedicated to performing remedial works that preserve period buildings so that they can survive long into the future.
Why should you remove paint from brick walls?
Painted bricks have usually been painted again and again as they’ve touched up over the years. This builds up to a thick layer of stubborn paint, which isn’t just difficult to remove but also causes property damage.
Walls in period homes are supposed to “breathe,” which means that moisture can freely pass in and out of the building, preventing damp from building up inside.
A thick layer of impermeable paint on a brick wall can prevent it from breathing, resulting in the accumulation of moisture behind the coat of paint. This wet layer erodes away at the brick and mortar and provides conditions for mould growth.
We’ve stripped back paint to find aggressive mould growing underneath and bricks wet like sponges, heavily damaged by water erosion and freeze/thaw damage, which can eventually lead to large cracks spreading through the wall.
This combination of moisture build-up and damaged brick completely compromises the building fabric’s water tightness, leading to a spread of damp and mould throughout the structure and all the associated issues they cause.

Edwardian House Restorations
For many people, Edwardian houses are considered the ideal family homes. They are typically large, well-proportioned, solidly built and designed around providing direct access to the garden.
Edwardian buildings make up much of the built landscape in some of London’s most desirable suburbs, but now that they are all over 100 years old, regular repair and maintenance – and sometimes full restoration – is required to keep them at their best.
At Environ Property Services, all our period restoration works are personally overseen by Terry L. Clark, company director and trained member of the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings.
Our priority is always to preserve historic features and fabric through the use of matching materials and original building techniques. We approach Edwardian buildings not as contractors but as craftspeople.
