00:00 Local stonemason Gary Cook has used the cutting-edge Dothree machine to bring restoration work
00:05 on the Laurels care home in Market Deeping near to completion. The Grade II listed building
00:10 was bought by mother and daughter team Turan and Yasamine Watts just over a year ago as
00:15 one of a portfolio of three care homes in the Peterborough area. After some major work
00:20 on the interior and grounds, Gary used the new machine from Gloucestershire Pioneers
00:25 Stonehealth to give the 200-year-old house a much-needed facelift. He used the Doth's
00:31 high-pressure superheated steam to gently remove decades of dirt and grime from the
00:35 building's exterior, restoring it to its former glories. The Laurels is situated on
00:41 the High Street in Market Deeping and is a prominent feature of the community as well
00:45 as being home to 19 residents when at full capacity.
