Are you local to Bournemouth and Poole?

Yes. This is our base. Surveys are usually next-day and mobilisation is fast across Dorset and the BH postcodes.

Do you work on hotels and hospitality frontages?

Regularly. Coastal hotels and hospitality venues are a staple of the local programme, decorated and resprayed around guests and trading.

Can you restore weathered seafront shopfronts?

Yes. Powder-coated frame restoration recovers faded, salt-exposed aluminium to a matched finish on site, without reglazing or replacement.

Is DOFF safe for heritage stone and brick?

Yes. Superheated steam at low pressure removes soiling without abrading the substrate. We sample-clean a test area and agree the result before proceeding.

What is TORC cleaning and when do you use it instead of DOFF?

TORC is Stonehealth's gentle rotating-vortex system: low air pressure, a little water and a fine inert granulate. We use it where steam alone will not shift the soiling, such as carbon sulphation on stone, ingrained staining on concrete, and paint or limescale removal. It runs under the same Stonehealth approval as our DOFF work, inside an A Star RAMS, with a sample area agreed before the full elevation.

How is run-off managed?

Contained, captured and disposed in line with the chemical spec and site drainage rules. Set out in the RAMS pack before mobilisation.

Will it strip existing paintwork?

The cleaning regime is matched to the substrate. If the intention is to preserve the existing coating, we confirm that in the spec. If it's a preamble to re-coating, we can strip in the same pass.

Can it be done at height?

Yes. MEWP or scaffold access, chosen at survey based on elevation height and run-off management requirements.

Why Bournemouth

Why choose us for jet washing, chemical cleaning, doff and torc in Bournemouth and Dorset.

Track record

Stonehealth Rosette-approved contractor for both the DOFF and TORC systems. Superheated steam, safe on heritage fabric, as the default for sensitive substrates
Chemistry matched to the substrate, not one pressure for everything
Often the first phase of a cladding or restoration package, with handover directly into coating works

Right fit when

The facade or cladding is dirty but otherwise sound. Clean first, then assess for coating.
The substrate is heritage stone, terracotta or sensitive brick that pressure washing would damage.
Cleaning is a preamble to cladding coatings, powder-coat restoration or a final-account condition record.

Bournemouth programme

How we run jet washing, chemical cleaning, doff and torc schemes locally.

Survey

Substrate type confirmed (stone, brick, render, cladding), soiling type assessed (atmospheric, biological, paint, soot), test-area agreed with client. Pressure or steam method confirmed before any work begins.

Specification

DOFF steam for heritage or sensitive substrates; TORC gentle abrasive where carbon sulphation, ingrained staining, paint or limescale will not shift with steam alone; chemical biocide for biological growth; jet wash for hard surfaces where pressure won't damage; soft-wash where pressure and chemistry both need controlling. Run-off pH and disposal route set out.

RAMS

RAMS written for the project: chemical handling, PPE matrix, run-off containment plan, exclusion zones during application, pedestrian and vehicle protection. COSHH for any biocide or neutraliser.

Delivery

Containment bunded, test area cleaned and signed off by client, full application by elevation. Neutraliser applied where chemical spec calls for it. Public access protected throughout.

Handover

Before/after photo record, cleaning record (method, products, pH readings where relevant), condition note if coating or restoration work is to follow.
