Rust Removal in Edinburgh and the Central Belt

Rust marks on the exterior walls of a building can be an ugly sight! They can quickly transform an immaculate, clean building to looking dirty and unkempt.

What causes rust stains? Rust is formed when steel or any other metal that contains iron is consistently exposed to oxygen and moisture. As a result, anything made of metal that is on an exterior wall such as a flue pipe, satellite dish, steel fixings or overflow pipe, will eventually start to rust causing yellowish-brown or reddish patches to appear.

The good news is that with the right skills, expertise and products, this can be easily remedied and that’s when EdinburghClean.co.uk can help as we provide rust removal in Edinburgh and the central belt.
