Caring for natural stone
When you’re tasked with caring for natural stone—especially on historic or heritage properties—you’re not just cleaning. You’re preserving memory, value, and character. At Heritage Stone Cleaning, powered by CCWC Services, we take that responsibility seriously.
We combine traditional craftsmanship with modern, gentle technologies. Every project is approached thoughtfully: assess, restore, protect, maintain. Here’s how we cover every angle.

How the Process Works
- Initial Consultation & Survey
We assess the stone type, condition, previous treatments, exposure, damage. We may take test patches. - Method Proposal & Safety Plan
You receive a clear proposal: what we’ll do, how, with what equipment, costs, and timing. We also present risk assessments and working-at-height plans. - Execution
Using DOFF steam, soft-wash, chemical cleaning, or specialist repairs, we restore surfaces. Access, protection, and containment are managed carefully. - Finishing & Protection
Sealants, coatings, or hydrophobic treatments applied where appropriate. Final touches and cleanliness checks. - Maintenance Plan
We can set up a routine inspection and cleaning schedule to prevent future decay and reduce major costs later.
