Metalwork

We are experts in cleaning and restoring metal – building structures, stairs, fire escapes, fences, storage tanks, gates and cast iron window frames, to name but a few. Using shot blasting and grit blasting techniques where appropriate, we are able to remove old paint, graffiti, grease, dirt, damaged sections, rust and corrosion from any metal surface. This will prepare it for high performance coatings or restore the metal to its original lustre.
The abrasive used will depend on the surface, its condition and the contaminant to be removed, but here is a list of some of the options:
  • Steel grit
  • Steel shot
  • Crushed glass
  • Ceramic grit
  • Glass beads
  • Aluminium oxide
  • Silicon carbide
Once we have stripped and cleaned your metalwork, we have the equipment to respray it at once to prevent re-rusting. We can prime and repaint it in the colour of your choice to give it an as-new look – or a completely different look if you prefer.

Advance Blast Cleaning at work. The traditional K6 telephone boxes were in use for many years and gained many layers of paint and dirt in that time. Blast cleaning gets back to the metal ready for priming and painting.
