In the Roblox sandbox building game Bricklayer (listed on Roblox as ELECTRICITY Bricklayer by developer TB Software), you clean cement using the Trowel option built into the cement tool. Developer patch notes confirm that cement cleaning was added to the cement tool in Update 4.1, allowing players to tidy up mortar and wet placements across their builds.
How to Clean Cement in Bricklayer
According to the official Update 4.1 changelog released by developer TB Software, cement cleaning does not require a standalone tool purchase:
- Primary Tool: Cement tool
- Cleaning Feature: Trowel (integrated directly with the cement tool)
- Supported Platforms: PC, Mobile, and Console
To remove or clean cement, equip your in-game cement tool and select the Trowel function. The update log explicitly states: "Cement cleaning (Trowel) now available with cement tool." Further step-by-step UI keybindings have not been published in the official Roblox experience description, but the tool is accessible in standard gameplay sessions across supported devices.
Trowel Cleaning vs. Demolition Tools
Players looking to remove structures often confuse cement cleaning with full block destruction. Bricklayer separates surface mortar maintenance from demolition:
| Tool / Item | Cost | Function in Game |
|---|---|---|
| Cement Tool (Trowel) | Included in-game | Cleans cement placements directly during construction |
| Hammer | 20 Robux (Game pass) | Destroys bricks, windows, and wood |
| Custom Bricks | 40 Robux (Game pass) | Modifies brick sizes and materials |
| Extra Slots | 50 Robux (Game pass) | Grants 3 additional save slots |
If you need to clear away accidental cement spills or reshape mortar joints, use the Trowel via the cement tool. If you need to completely remove solid structural elements such as bricks, wood, or windows, the Hammer game pass is used instead.
Update 4.1 Building and Tool Changes
The introduction of the Trowel cement cleaning feature arrived alongside several major building and mechanics changes in Update 4.1:
- Motors and Pistons: Added functional Motors, along with a dedicated Wrench tool used to adjust Pistons and Motors.
- Electrical Gates: Added NAND, NOR, and XOR logic gates, alongside logic gate delay adjustments and hinge changes.
- Cutting Shapes: Added Circle and Square cutting options.
- Measurement and Alignment: The measurement tool can now measure multiple lines simultaneously, part snapping was fixed, and a new Snap mode allows parts to snap directly to one another.
- Part Despawn Rules: Unanchored parts save again, but they automatically despawn after 4 minutes if left unanchored.
- Settings and Hardware: Added gifting options in settings, fixed piston grabbing bugs, added adjustable nail head sizes, and resolved platform-specific bugs for Mobile and Console users.
