After months of anticipation, the iconic Nemesis roller coaster at Alton Towers underwent a massive revamp to bring new thrills and excitement to visitors. But with any major construction project comes the inevitable mess—construction mud, dust, and debris covered the block paving walkways, footpaths, queuing areas, and fencing around the ride.
T
hat’s where our team stepped in. Tasked with cleaning up the entire outdoor area surrounding the ride, we deployed a skilled four-man crew equipped with specialist tools and cleaning techniques.
Over the course of several intense days, our team worked meticulously to remove all traces of construction residue, using a combination of pressure washing and steam cleaning for the toughest spots. Some parts of the paving needed a gentler approach to protect the integrity of the surfaces while ensuring a thorough clean.
The Challenge: Tight Deadlines & High Standards
With the grand reopening looming just 72 hours away, timing was critical. We coordinated closely with the Alton Towers team to ensure our cleaning work didn’t disrupt ongoing final preparations. Working efficiently but carefully, we delivered a sparkling clean environment that met the theme park’s exacting standards for safety, appearance, and visitor experience.
Why Professional Block Paving Cleaning Makes a Difference
