York's Heritage Capital

Laser Cleaning Built for York's Unique Heritage

York is one of the most historically significant cities in the world. From Roman Eboracum to the medieval Shambles to the Gothic splendour of York Minster, this city is built on two thousand years of history. Its buildings, walls and structures are irreplaceable, and the cleaning methods used on them must match that significance.

ThePrepWorks brings precision laser cleaning to York. It is the only technology that removes pollution, graffiti and surface soiling from ancient stonework without abrasion, chemicals or water damage. York's magnesian limestone is highly porous and dissolves under acid or abrasive attack. Laser cleaning is entirely dry and chemical-free, making it the only truly appropriate method for the city's heritage structures. Beyond heritage, ThePrepWorks also serves York's commercial and industrial clients with the same mobile, on-site precision.

"We needed graffiti removed from a listed building in the York city centre conservation area, a matter of urgency given the foot traffic. ThePrepWorks attended the next morning and the stonework was completely clean by noon. No marks, no chemicals. Exactly what was needed."
