"We have recently used CJK Sandblasting to remove paint from the exterior of our property. Over the years the house has been painted using various paints which over time have started peeling off and damaging the bricks and mortar underneath. Chris came along on a couple of days initially to test out the best method of removing the paint and discuss our requirements before giving us an idea of what he would do. Once this was confirmed we talked about a date and all met with a scaffolding company. We have had walls sand blasted and steam blasted to remove the paint. Chris works methodically and meticulously and keeps you informed along the way. This was a messy job cleared up on a daily basis. We would have no hesitation in recommending Chris."

Low Pressure Blasting & Steam Cleaning
At CJK Sandblasting, we have been involved in the restoration and cleaning of buildings of all types and ages, from modern homes to listed heritage properties. Some recent projects involved Victorian brick homes, where the brickwork had been coated with multiple layers of plastic-based paints, rather than the proper use of lime wash. On many of these older buildings, the problems have only started in the last 40 years or so, with the use of modern paints and coatings.
The homeowners had been advised that these paints were trapping moisture within the walls, causing dampness, blistering, and damage to both the bricks and the original lime mortar. Traditional buildings are designed to breathe, allowing moisture to escape naturally — when this process is blocked by impermeable coatings, the structure begins to deteriorate fast.
Our solution was to carefully remove these old paints and coatings, using low-pressure abrasive blasting or steam cleaning techniques that deliver exceptional results without damaging the underlying surface. By selecting the correct process for the application, and by applying expert operator skill, we were able to restore buildings and brickwork to their natural beauty, allowing these buildings to breathe once again.
Whether you need paint removal from brick, stone, or timber surfaces, or full brickwork restoration cleaning, CJK Sandblasting provides safe, efficient, and professional cleaning solutions that protect and preserve your property for years to come.
A Beautiful Transformation
The homeowners were thrilled with the transformations of their Victorian properties following CJK Sandblasting’s work. The results spoke for themselves, the freshly restored brickwork drew fantastic feedback from neighbours and the wider community, all impressed by the dramatic improvement in appearance, but the most impotent part is, these buildings dried out and the problems disappeared.
At CJK, we specialise in low-pressure abrasive media blasting and steam cleaning. These are highly effective methods for removing years of paint and grime, while preserving the integrity of the surfaces beneath. The abrasive blasting technique is ideal for historic oak beams, some period brickwork and stonework, revealing the natural character and detail hidden beneath old coatings. Other buildings may just require steam cleaning only.
We provide a full range of private and commercial restoration cleaning services, including Building Restoration Cleaning, Stone and Brickwork Cleaning, Paint and Graffiti Removal, Chewing Gum and Efflorescence Removal, Patio and Driveway Cleaning, Walkway and Decking Cleaning, Statue and Monument Cleaning.
Operating throughout Bedfordshire, Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, and Buckinghamshire, CJK Sandblasting delivers professional results with a personal touch, restoring beauty, protecting surfaces, and enhancing the life of every property we work on.
