Outdoor Sculpture Cleaning

What This Service Involves

Garden statues and outdoor art collect biological staining and algae in Washington's persistently damp air. Our low-pressure, material-specific cleaning protects delicate stone, bronze, and cast finishes while lifting the buildup. We adjust our approach for aging patinas and fragile detailing so nothing is stripped away. A clean sculpture regains its detail and becomes a focal point again.

Benefits

Lifts algae and staining without damage; protects delicate finishes and patinas; restores fine sculptural detail; extends the life of outdoor art; renews a garden focal point

Our Process

1) Assess the material and finish condition; 2) Apply a gentle, material-safe cleaner; 3) Low-pressure or hand-clean the detailed areas; 4) Rinse softly and inspect fragile features

What Affects the Cost

Size and material of the sculpture; fragility of the finish or patina; complexity of the detailing; degree of biological staining; access and handling care needed

Best Time of Year

Sculptures are best cleaned in late spring after the wettest months have fueled algae growth.
