These are green oak beams and floor joists on a new build property in Great Shefford near Lambourn Berkshire where the green oak being very acidic, has reacted with the metal of the machine blades to leave dark stains.

Blastaway are contracted by many green oak building companies to blast clean their structures to remove all tannin stains, water stains and other manufacturing marks to leave the oak structure clean of all imperfections.

This oak cleaning process also enhances the wood grain and makes the building look more attractive as an end result.

Green Oak Cleaning at a Lambourn Barn Conversion

February 4, 2011 in Green Oak Structures, Oak Beams & Barns

Blastaway were asked by a local builder to blast clean a new green oak internal roof structure.

The building process usually leaves machining marks as well as some water stains and tannin marks.

These show up on the timber and are unsightly so blast cleaning removes all the marks to leave a clean uniform appearance.
