Applications

What we restore

Fire & Soot

Fire and smoke damage cleaning

Remove soot and smoke residues from brick, stone, metal, and timber post-fire. No chemicals, no abrasion. Safe for heritage and period surfaces.

Heritage

Heritage metal and stone restoration

Clean discolouration, oxidation, and atmospheric contamination from heritage ironwork, bronze, stone facades, and masonry. Substrate-safe — controlled to the surface type.

Graffiti

Select graffiti removal

Graffiti and surface contamination removal from heritage stone, brick, and metal facades where chemical treatment has failed or is unsuitable.

The Process

Substrate-safe cleaning for sensitive surfaces

Restoration and heritage applications require the highest degree of process control. Pulsed laser parameters are tuned specifically to the surface material — stone, bronze, cast iron, or masonry — and the contamination type. Energy is set below the ablation threshold of the substrate so only the contamination is removed.

Every restoration job begins with a test patch in a non-visible area. We photograph and document the test patch result before proceeding with full treatment.

We work with conservation guidelines and can liaise with heritage consultants on significant projects.

Common Questions

Questions about laser restoration

Yes, when correctly calibrated. Pulse parameters are set specifically for stone type (sandstone, limestone, granite, bluestone) and contamination type. Energy levels are conservative — we remove contamination in controlled passes rather than in one high-energy pass. A non-visible test patch is always completed first.
Yes. Laser cleaning is increasingly used on heritage buildings where chemical cleaning is prohibited or has failed. It removes soot and carbon deposits without water, chemicals, or mechanical abrasion. We can work with your heritage consultant or conservation architect.
Laser cleaning can often remove graffiti and chemical treatment staining that has bonded to porous stone or brick. Suitability depends on the substrate and contamination depth — a test patch will confirm what is achievable before you commit.
