SODA BLASTING
Precision Restoration After Fire or Smoke Damage
Following a fire, many properties are left with thick soot and carbon staining that penetrates brickwork, timber, and stone. Manual scrubbing and chemical solutions aren’t always effective—and can cause further damage to heritage or delicate materials. That’s where soda blasting comes in.
For landlords, insurers, and loss adjusters, soda blasting solves a number of challenges:
Deep-set smoke and soot contamination on structural materials
Strong fire-related odours embedded in walls, ceilings, and floors
The need to clean fire-damaged surfaces without causing further harm
Pressure to restore buildings quickly and cost-effectively
Compliance with restoration standards and environmental responsibility
At Eighty Eight, our IICRC-certified team uses soda blasting to:
Remove soot, carbon, and charring from brick, block, stone, wood, metal, and more
Prepare fire-damaged surfaces for sealing, painting, or reinstatement
Neutralise odours naturally through the alkaline properties of baking soda
Minimise dust and environmental impact with low-pressure systems
Preserve the integrity of surfaces—ideal for listed or heritage buildings
Deliver fast, insurance-compliant results with full photographic documentation
Ideal For Use In:
Fire-damaged residential and commercial buildings
Heritage properties or older housing stock
Internal and external brickwork, beams, and timbers
Garage fires, boiler rooms, and plant areas
