Brighton Property Maintenance Spotlight: Brick Cleaning at Local Industrial Estate

Keeping Brighton’s properties in top shape isn’t just about looks—it’s about long-term protection, compliance, and value. At Wadesons, we specialise in property maintenance in Brighton, supporting landlords, business owners, and site managers with high-impact, low-hassle services.

One recent example? A full brick cleaning project at an industrial estate in Brighton using soft-wash techniques and biocides. The results were stunning—and the building now looks as professional as the businesses operating inside it.

Why Property Maintenance in Brighton Matters

Brighton’s seaside environment poses unique challenges: salt-laden air, algae from damp weather, and urban pollution can degrade exterior surfaces—especially brickwork. If left untreated, these elements will accelerate mortar decay and reduce property value.

That’s where we come in.

We provide ongoing and one-off maintenance services across the Brighton area, including:

• Brickwork & façade cleaning

• Roof and gutter maintenance

• External surface treatments

• Commercial property refurbishments

According to industry experts, soft-wash biocides offer long-lasting cleaning benefits by killing microorganisms at their roots—supporting both aesthetic and structural resilience. Learn more from this detailed guide on how biocides revolutionise exterior cleaning.

Project Feature: Soft-Wash Brick Cleaning with Biocides

This recent project involved deep-cleaning the exterior brickwork of an industrial estate in Brighton. The building suffered from black staining and moss, lowering curb appeal and projecting neglect.

What We Did:

• Applied a soft-wash biocide solution to target algae, moss, and pollution

• Used a low-pressure system to protect the structure

• Rinsed carefully to restore the brick’s natural warmth

The transformation was dramatic in just hours—no high-pressure damage, no disruption, just a revitalised industrial façade.

Why Soft-Washing Trumps Jet-Washing

Soft-washing is the gentler, safer way to clean masonry. It relies on low-pressure application and specially formulated chemicals that:

• Clean deeper than pressure alone

• Provide a residual biocide effect, preventing regrowth

• Preserve mortar joints and ageing bricks—perfect for Brighton’s older structures
