The Hull opportunity
Why Buy a Laser Machine in Hull?
Hull is a different proposition from a Dales village. It is a full city with a working port, a marina, civic buildings and street after street of commercial and residential property. That density is the point for anyone buying a laser cleaning machine. The volume of stone, brick, metal and painted surface here is far greater than anywhere rural, and all of it soils, corrodes and attracts graffiti.
The building stock reflects the East Riding and its maritime past. Georgian and Victorian brick, coastal terraces that take the weather off the Humber, civic stone and industrial fabric from the city's port and trade history. A pulsed fibre laser cleans brick, stone and metal without chemicals, abrasives or water blasting, and without damaging the surface, which suits the range of buildings a city like Hull throws up.
Graffiti is a real and recurring source of work in any city, and Hull is no exception. Add soot on facades, rust on railings and metalwork, paint to strip and kitchen doors to bring back, and the seven revenue streams the business is built on all come into play. A city gives you enough of each that you can specialise or stay broad, whichever suits you.
Every machine comes with training and UK technical support, so you can take on paid work with confidence from the start. Hull is about sixty miles from our Leeds base, roughly an hour and a half by van. For a city this size, a locally based owner has a strong position, with a large and constant supply of surfaces on the doorstep rather than a long drive away.
From our Leeds studio we cover Hull and the wider East Riding of Yorkshire area, 60 miles from Leeds, an area we run regular scheduled trips to. Operators working around Hull also take on jobs in Beverley, Bridlington and Goole and the surrounding HU postcodes.
