Heritage Cleaning in Thorne, South Yorkshire

Thorne is a canal town on the edge of the Humberhead Levels with river trade heritage and a busy commercial centre. ThePrepWorks uses fibre laser technology for heritage cleaning that is non-contact, non-abrasive and chemical-free, making it the safest available method for listed buildings, war memorials and scheduled monuments.

Yorkshire sandstone, limestone and historic brickwork in Thorne all respond well to laser cleaning. The non-contact process is safe on carved detail, inscriptions and delicate ornamental work that would be at risk from any abrasive method.
