Buy in Whitby
A professional pulsed fibre laser for buyers in Whitby and across North Yorkshire. Full training, UK support and seven revenue streams from day one. No experience required.
The Whitby opportunity
Whitby is known for Whitby Abbey, 199 Steps and Whitby Harbour, but for a laser cleaning operator it is the everyday buildings around them that pay the bills.
Behind Whitby Abbey, the sea works on every surface in Whitby, and very few North Yorkshire operators are equipped to clean the limestone and gritstone buildings, Georgian market towns and medieval fabric properly.
The marine environment around Whitby is hard on buildings and on the operators not equipped for it. Harbour, seafront and slipway cleaning are underserved, so the right operator can own this niche.
LaserStrip is 70 miles from Leeds, an area we run regular scheduled trips to, close enough to deliver, train and support you properly. We are active laser cleaning operators first and suppliers second.

Most operators choose the 300W FLT-P 300SL2; the 200W suits lighter work and the 500W heavy industrial use. See all three on the buy a machine page. It is air cooled with no chemicals or consumables, so running costs on a Whitby job are mainly electricity and your time.
