"I'm new to Angie's List and purchased a Angie's Big Deal for power washing with UltraBrite. Within two hours from when I purchased the Big Deal online on a Saturday afternoon, the owner, Tom, called me to set up an appointment. We scheduled an appointment for cleaning on the following Wednesday since I had to take a day off anyway for some window replacement service in my home (which I also chose via Angie's). Tom showed up 15 minutes early from our schedule time. Unfortunately, the contractors for my window service were still busy working with their truck, equipment and windows still spread out on my drive way, so Tom could not clean my driveway. Although I felt bad that he couldn't provide his service that day, Tom graciously offered to come another day when I was available. The day Tom power washed my areas, he was very prompt, friendly, courteous, and professional. He did a fantastic job cleaning my front patio, walkway, and driveway. He even offered suggestions to remove mildew on some large planters on my patio. I would not hesitate using Ultrabrite again and highly recommend them for their services. Thanks. "
Sandblasting Services questions, answered by experts
Costs depend on paint type, surface condition, labor, and required prep work for repainting.
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.
Sanding and pressure washing serve different purposes in deck maintenance, so one is not necessarily better than the other. Pressure washing is ideal for annual cleaning to remove dirt, grime, mold, and mildew. Sanding is a deeper restoration method used to smooth rough surfaces, remove an old finish, and prepare the wood for a new coat of stain or paint. The ideal process for refinishing a deck is to first clean it (with a power washer), then sand it, and finally apply the new stain or finish. While cleaning should be done annually, sanding and staining are typically needed only every one to three years.
The cost of sandblasting depends on the scope of the project, the surface type, labor, and equipment required. Services typically cost between $50 and $80 per hour, though most professionals charge by surface area at a rate of $1.50 to $7 per square foot. Total project costs can range from $700 to $12,500, with an average homeowner spending around $3,200 to sandblast a 1,000-square-foot surface.
You can concrete can be done when it’s wet or dry. However, it’s safer when wet, as harmful dust and chemicals are present. Sanding it when dry is faster, but you’ll agitate more dust and chemicals, meaning you’ll need to be more careful.
