Facade cleaning and facade renovation: when is what needed?
In Overijssel, we use a practical inspection to assess the condition of your facade. By rubbing your thumb over the jointing, you will quickly notice if sand or mortar comes loose. If this is the case, facade renovation is often necessary. Is the facade still in good condition but soiled by deposits or discoloration? Then a thorough cleaning is usually the best first step.
With facade cleaning, we remove dirt such as algae, green deposits, and efflorescence. We always tailor the chosen method to the type of facade. We clean sensitive masonry with steam, while for stubborn dirt on strong bricks, we apply techniques such as air blasting or dry ice blasting for optimal results.
Facade renovation focuses on the sustainable restoration of the facade. Worn joints are carefully removed and reapplied, and damaged bricks are repaired or replaced where necessary. After renovation, in many cases we recommend impregnating the facade so that the renewed jointing is better protected against moisture and dirt. We assess every situation in Overijssel on-site, after which you receive honest and appropriate advice – even if that means a less invasive approach is sufficient.
Our activities in Overijssel
Overijssel has a varied housing stock that requires a tailored approach. In and around historic cities such as Zwolle, Deventer, and Kampen, there are still many characteristic buildings with decorative brickwork. We treat these types of facades with care: no aggressive high-pressure cleaning, but specialized techniques such as steam cleaning or air blasting. We always start with a test in an inconspicuous spot so that you know exactly what to expect beforehand.
In many residential areas in Overijssel, including places such as Almelo and Hengelo, there are homes dating from the 1960s and 1970s. On these houses, the pointing is often the most vulnerable part of the facade. Due to prolonged exposure to rain, wind, and frost, the joints can wear down, the mortar can crumble, and moisture can penetrate. In many cases, the facade itself is still in good condition, and renewing the pointing is sufficient. If necessary, we combine facade cleaning and renovation in a single process—an efficient approach without unnecessary costs.
What do facade cleaning and facade renovation cost in Overijssel?
In Overijssel, facade cleaning costs an average of €5 per m² and facade renovation €50 per m², excluding VAT. We work primarily in the west of the province, from Zwolle to Hardenberg and from Steenwijk to Ommen, and apply the same rate everywhere. Whether your facade only requires cleaning or if the pointing also deserves attention will be determined during the free inspection. You will then receive a single quotation in which both components are itemized separately.
How do we clean your facade?
Every facade is different. That is why we always start with a thorough on-site inspection. We assess the type of masonry, the condition of the joints, and the nature of the contamination. Only then do we choose the appropriate cleaning method.
Inspection and test piece
We inspect the facade and often make a test piece on a small, inconspicuous section. This way, you see what the result will be beforehand, without any surprises.
1
Determine cleaning method
Not every facade can be cleaned in the same way. We always choose a method that suits the stone, the level of soiling, and the condition of the masonry of your facade.
2
Cleaning and finishing
During the cleaning process, we carefully cover window frames, doors, and plants. Afterwards, we check the result and leave the workplace tidy. No traces, no mess.
3
Aftercare
After cleaning, your facade is clean, but also more susceptible to new dirt. Therefore, we often recommend impregnating the facade, a water-repellent treatment that prevents dirt from adhering as well.

To be honest: for light green deposits, you can sometimes try to remove them yourself with a brush and a mild cleaner. Only when the dirt returns or is deeper is professional facade cleaning truly necessary. We prefer to tell you that beforehand rather than afterwards.

Frequently asked questions about facade cleaning and renovation in Overijssel
Yes. For ornamental masonry and pre-war brick, we always use gentle methods: steam cleaning or air blasting, never high pressure. We assess each property individually and, if necessary, first create a test piece in an inconspicuous location.
If the mortar is weathered, cleaning alone is of little use. Moisture seeps into the masonry through the open joints, and the deposits return within a year. We always assess this during the inspection and combine both tasks if that is the smartest option.
Yes. We are equipped for larger projects for Owners' Associations and housing corporations, including reporting and phased execution. View our commercial portfolio for more information.
We recommend this in most cases. After cleaning, the facade is cleaner but also more vulnerable. Impregnation seals the masonry against moisture and ensures that the facade stays clean longer.
