For whatever reason, many sandstone homes across Glasgow and the central belt of Scotland have had their original sandstone, granite and other stonework painted over.
This thick/heavy outdoor paint can prove to be a real problem to remove from stonework without damaging the stonework underneath. Powerwashing is a destructive process that will simply blast away and permanently damage stonework. However at Balmore Contracting, we offer THREE superior alternatives to stonework paint removal.
