Green Oak Cleaning Services

Specialist Cleaning for New and Weathered Green Oak

At Beaming Restorations, we provide expert green oak cleaning using a low-pressure, dry-cleaning system that preserves the natural grain and surface integrity of the timber. Whether your oak is newly installed or weathered and greyed with age, we clean it gently — without water, harsh chemicals, or abrasives.

Our Green Oak Cleaning Process

Our method is designed to refresh oak without affecting its structure, finish, or surrounding features — ideal for both domestic and architectural oak work.

1. Initial Consultation

We assess the condition of your green oak and determine whether you’re aiming to restore a fresh look, remove surface staining, or simply reduce uneven weathering. In most cases, quotes can be provided from photos.

2. Preparation

We mask off adjoining surfaces and protect the surrounding area to avoid dust spreading. Oak features such as beams, trusses, porches, cladding, or interior joinery are treated with care.

3. Gentle, Dry Cleaning

Our low-pressure cleaning method safely removes surface dirt, stains, and uneven weathering without damaging the fibre of the wood. This process is much safer than traditional sandblasting, which can leave scars and inconsistencies in fresh oak.

4. Attention to Detail

We work evenly across the grain and contours of the oak, whether it's smooth-planed or rough-sawn. Special attention is given to edges, joints, carvings, and decorative details.

5. Full Clean-Up

All dust is removed, protective coverings are taken down, and the space is left clean and ready for further finishing or use.

6. Aftercare & Optional Treatments

We can advise on protective finishes such as breathable oils or limewash-compatible treatments. These are optional and discussed during your consultation.
