Historic Preservation Cleaning Kansas City

Service Details

Specialized Exterior Cleaning for Historic Buildings

At Premier Exterior Services KC, we understand that historic buildings require a different level of care. That’s why we specialize in historic preservation exterior cleaning across the Kansas City metro. Our team follows the National Park Service Published Preservation Briefs #1, #2, and #6, ensuring all cleaning methods protect and preserve historic masonry, stone, and concrete without altering their original character.

Our Preservation Cleaning Approach

Cleaning historic buildings is not the same as standard pressure washing. These structures demand gentle, low-pressure techniques that respect and maintain the integrity of the material.

As part of our process, we:

  • Clean brickwork, masonry, and precast concrete/stone using approved methods
  • Use the lowest possible water pressure to avoid damage
  • Provide a minimum 9 sq. ft. mock-up panel of cleaned area for inspection and approval by a historic preservation specialist
  • Offer multiple mock-up panels to demonstrate different cleaning materials and pressure levels before full project approval
  • Submit a full description of proposed cleaning materials and procedures for review and approval before starting work

Why It Matters

Preserving the original masonry and finishes of a historic property ensures its architectural integrity and cultural value remain intact. Unlike traditional exterior cleaning, our preservation-focused methods are designed to:

  • Avoid physical or chemical damage to historic surfaces
  • Comply with federal and local preservation standards
  • Ensure long-term protection of historic structures

We proudly serve the Kansas City metro, including Overland Park, Olathe, Lee’s Summit, and Independence.
