Lift soiling, biological growth and overpaint from heritage stone, brick and timber. Serving Brisbane CBD, Fortitude Valley, South Brisbane, Chermside and surrounds.
Heritage Restoration for Brisbane customers
Heritage stone, brick and timber facades suffer from a century of soiling, biological growth, soot deposits and overpaint. Sandblasting is too aggressive, chemical poultices may stain or weaken the substrate, water-jetting saturates and damages mortar. Dry ice cleaning is one of the few methods that satisfies heritage and conservation authority requirements while actually removing layered contamination.
For customers across Brisbane — from Brisbane CBD, Fortitude Valley, South Brisbane to Chermside — we operate as the Queensland arm of the wider Dry Ice Blasters network. Brisbane and the surrounding metro is where most of our Queensland work is based — high-end auto detailing, food processing across the river belt, marine work into Moreton Bay, and steady restoration demand from a humid climate.
