Services
There's much more to stone cleaning than a high-pressure hose. Stone is naturally porous and its appearance will deteriorate over time if neglected. Professional cleaning is one way to bring your stonework back to life. We use a number of methods, depending on the stone. We can clean all types of stone, lime, sand, marble and granite are just a few.
Natural stone should not be painted and can be damaging to the stone over time. It will cause the stone to rot away and trap damp inside, which can cause internal damp problems. When a property has been painted, we can take it back to the original form. We remove the paint as carefully as possible to ensure the stone is not damaged underneath using various techniques.
Over time weathering and decay can cause damage to joints, which can cause internal damp problems by letting the water in through the joints. We carry out repointing by carefully removing the existing mortar and replacing it with a choice of matching mortars including lime based mortars. There are also different styles of pointing that can be replicated.
As an extension to our specialised stone cleaning service we offer graffiti removal. We can also apply a range of surface treatments that are all 'true breathing' products, meaning that they are vapour permeable yet liquid impermeable, allowing the substrate to breath whilst rejecting any fresh application of paint or felt-tip.
Steam cleaning is probably the safest way to clean any substrate without causing any damage to the surface being cleaned. The steam/superheated water will remove moss, algae, fungi and other biological matter and will also kill off spores. This means there's then no need to use a chemical biocide during the removal process or as a protection against further biological activity.

I was delighted with the work of Atwill Stone Company Limited on a small domestic job. They sand blasted an old rubble garden wall and repointed my front garden wall. Their workmanship was excellent and they left things clean and tidy afterwards. I was very pleased with the result which exceeded my expectations and will gladly use them again if the need arises. I would highly recommend this company.

Mark and joey recently created a lovely feature wall in the living room of our period cottage. They put great thought and care in the process and brought what seemed like a pile of rubble back to life through careful cleaning, rebuilding and repointing making it look like the wall was always like that. They also left a very tidy site each evening. We are so pleased we are already thinking of the next jobs for them to do. Very skilled trades. Highly recommend.
