"Herb responded very promptly and professionally. He listened well to my expectations and communicated clearly what he would deliver. It was translated to a written offer by the end of the day. He worked quickly and carefully to complete a job well done. I have already hired him again for a second job."

"The provider showed up on time as promised. After about 40 minutes the service guy was wrapping up and had to ask him to redo some sections that were clearly not clean. Also missed stairs completely. They did finish it up and final job was fine. Had some trouble communicating with service guy as his English was limited. Wasn't terrible but wouldn't use again.

"I rent my property from another state. So I was looking for someone to do small jobs around my house when they come up. The price was way cheaper than I thought. He was very courteous and professional. I will for sure be using his services in the future. I've dealt with a number of other contractors and this one is by far the best I've seen in the AV.

Sandblasting Services questions, answered by experts

Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on the surface area and complexity.

Sandblasting is a common method for removing paint. It works great if the underlying material is tough. This is because you can then use more abrasive sandblast materials, making the paint removal process much faster and less expensive. If you plan on removing many layers of paint on smooth surfaces, you’ll need to be more careful about which materials you choose to use to sandblast.

Costs depend on paint type, surface condition, labor, and required prep work for repainting.

Soda-blasting systems are slightly more expensive than sandblasting systems. To soda blast, you’ll need to spend a few hundred dollars for a blast hose and nozzle, a compressed air supply, a blast generator, a moisture decontamination system, and sodium bicarbonate media, a recurring cost because the powder is not reusable. To start with sandblasting, you will need to spend upwards of $30 for a blast pot, a blast gun, an air compressor, and sandblasting media, many of which are recyclable—further reducing the cost. The total cost for either will depend on the size of the system.

If you’re DIYing the project, it could take up to a week if you aren’t able to dedicate full-time hours. If you hire a professional and they arrive with a team, expect your stairs to be sanded in as little as 2 hours (for simple projects). Finishing the stairs takes a while longer as there are drying and sealing times to consider, but the actual work will take much less time than the sanding portion.
