Wintergardens Blackpool

Fylde Conservation was appointed to undertake specialist conservation works to the historic façade of the Blackpool Winter Gardens. The project focused on removing non-breathable coatings, reinstating lost stone detailing, and repairing weathered masonry using traditional methods. Working within a live urban setting and under close scrutiny from heritage stakeholders, our team delivered a sensitive programme of cleaning and repair that respected the building’s architectural significance and ensured long-term durability.

Key Works Delivered

Removal of impermeable paint coatings using superheated water cleaning.

Careful control of temperature and pressure to avoid damage to underlying stone.

Revealed original stone surfaces and allowed accurate assessment of condition.

Stone Indents
