Condition checked first
We assess the wood type, staining, cracks and existing damage.
Traditional wood care
Reveal the grain beneath dark staining
A controlled wood-washing process can reduce dirt and staining while preserving the visible grain.

Common concerns about natural wood
We often receive these enquiries for older Japanese-style homes.
Darkened entrance wood
Posts or pale wood have darkened and make the entrance look tired.
Rain streaks
Staining remains on eaves or other exterior wood after wiping.
Before visitors or a memorial service
The entrance needs care before welcoming guests.
Keep the natural character
You prefer cleaning the grain to covering it with paint.
Dirt in latticework or joinery
Fine wooden sections remain dirty after ordinary wiping.
How pricing is decided
The price depends on the amount of wood, depth of staining and need for scaffolding. We inspect the wood and provide a free quotation before work.

Yes.
