What the job was.
We were called out to a property in Plymouth to help the owners tackle a problem they had with their exterior stone patio.
What cause the damage to the stone.
The patio is open to the elements of the sea, being right on the front of the Hoe. They have patio furniture that had left terrible patches of rust on the tile floor due to heavy rain, flooding and the salt water.
The cleaning process.
We gave the area a good deep cleaning with our specialist rust removing cleaning solution, which is designed to draw the rust out of the stone. Once we gave it its first deep clean we gave it a second clean, rinsing away all the cleaning solution and dirt and grime.
Protecting the stone.
After the cleaning process, to ensure that the same damage did not occur again, we impregnated the stone. This impregnation soaks into the stone and protecting the stone deep down. If this problem was to happen again then the rust would not have a chance to soak its way into the stone. Preventing a lot of damage.
The final results.
As a result of our deep cleaning and impregnating of the area the results came out great. Have a look at the photos and see for yourself.
