Laser Timber Restoration & Cleaning

Gentle laser cleaning of timber surfaces — removing paint, staining and biological growth without sanding, chemicals or damage to the wood grain.

Timber is one of the most challenging surfaces to clean and restore. Abrasive methods raise the grain and damage the surface. Chemical strippers can discolour the wood, raise the grain and leave residues that interfere with new finishes. Laser cleaning offers a completely different approach — gentle, precise and entirely non-abrasive.

How It Works

The Laser Cleaning Process

The laser is calibrated to remove the contaminant layer — paint, stain, biological growth or weathering — without penetrating the wood beneath. The process is entirely dry and leaves no chemical residue. The result is a clean timber surface with the original grain and texture fully preserved, ready for finishing or treatment.
