Soot Removal
Laser Green Limited provides specialist laser cleaning for the removal of soot and suitable smoke-related surface deposits from compatible materials.
Our Approach to Laser Cleaning
Soot can accumulate following the use of fireplaces and wood burners, prolonged exposure to smoke, industrial processes or fire-related incidents. Depending on the surface, soot may become embedded in porous materials and can be difficult to remove without spreading the contamination or affecting the original finish.
Laser cleaning can provide a controlled alternative for selected soot-removal applications, particularly on suitable stone, masonry, timber and metal surfaces. The cleaning approach is selected according to the material, the nature of the deposit and the level of cleaning required.
We work with property owners, restoration contractors, facilities managers and businesses looking to improve the appearance of affected surfaces while retaining as much of the original material and detail as possible.
Every project is assessed before work begins. Sample patches help establish the expected results and allow the cleaning method to be adjusted to suit the surface.
Following a fire, soot may be accompanied by hazardous residues, damaged coatings and other contamination. Such projects require an appropriate assessment before laser cleaning is considered. Laser cleaning is not a substitute for specialist fire-damage remediation where hazardous contamination is present.
