What Is Superheated Steam Cleaning?
Superheated steam cleaning uses very high temperatures and low pressure to clean and sanitise surfaces safely.
This advanced method is widely used in historic building conservation and restoration because it:
• Removes dirt and staining gently
• Kills algae, moss and lichen at the root
• Uses significantly less water than pressure washing
• Minimises environmental impact
• Protects delicate stone and masonry
This makes it ideal for sensitive surfaces where traditional pressure washing would be too aggressive.
Why Choose Steam Cleaning?
Low Pressure – High Temperature
Unlike conventional pressure washing, steam cleaning relies on heat rather than force.
Benefits include:
• Low-pressure cleaning reduces surface damage
• Kills organic spores without harsh chemicals
• Uses less water than cold pressure washing
• Reduces mess and runoff
• Provides deep, long-lasting cleaning results
Ideal Applications for Steam Cleaning
Superheated steam is suitable for a wide range of surfaces including:
• Natural stone and masonry
• Brick and heritage buildings
• Render and external walls
• Patios and paving
• Roof tiles
• Commercial buildings and public areas
Graffiti & Paint Removal
Superheated steam is highly effective for removing paint, coatings and graffiti.
When combined with specialist paint softeners:
• Heat softens and loosens coatings
• Paint can be safely removed without damaging the substrate
• Ideal for stone and brickwork restoration
• Suitable for heritage and conservation projects
Oil & Grease Stain Removal
Steam cleaning is also extremely effective for removing:
• Oil staining
