DJ Cooper Building Conservation for Axbridge, Somerset

Axbridge is a picturesque former market town on the southern fringe of the Mendip Hills. This small town has a medieval market square, narrow streets and ancient timber framed buildings. Although the river Axe is over a mile away from the town now, it is believed that once it was much closer, hence the name of the town.<br /><br />With historic buildings in and around the town, some national monuments, some still in use, owned privately or by the local council, we often find ourselves called on in the Axbridge area to ensure that when the grime from traffic, bird fouling, general day to day soiling or even graffiti is removed from a treasured building, there is no damage to the often delicate stonework beneath.<br /><br />From removal of old paint for a domestic redecoration project, or the intricate cleaning of stone work in a cathedral using the poultice method, you will find that wherever you are in Axbridge or Somerset, you will get a quick response, highly competitive quotation and thorough cleaning from DJ Cooper.

Poultice Cleaning
<p>For the effective removal of rust, copper staining and atmospheric soiling from masonry by the application of tailor-made poultices which are specific to the material to be cleaned. This technique is particularly useful for removing soiling in building interiors where the use of water based techniques would be damaging, and it is extremely effective for gently cleaning sculpture and monuments. </p><h4></h4><p></p><p></p>
