We were given the fantastic opportunity and project to clean the rare Turkish limestone cladding on the building, a clean-up that was very much needed after 10 years.
The Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art is the only town-centre building clad in the distinctive rare Turkish limestone, but after ten years’ and exposure to the elements, it needed a good clean up and restoration, so this is where we came in carrying out the high-pressure clean using specialist equipment.
We are hoping we can eventually specialise in cleaning historical and unique buildings of interest, and hopefully off the back of this contract we can get the grant and funding towards new machinery and recruiting more staff.
