"Mike and his team did a fantastic job restoring our wood deck. I found MJM Restorations to be responsive, helpful, professional and fair throughout the entire process from the initial estimate to job completion. There were multiple layers of paint of the deck which required a lot of work to remove. Mike communicated frequently on the progress of the work, including when an additional piece of equipment and extra labor hours would be required to finish the job properly. Mike and his team showed up on time and finished on schedule. He also answered many of my questions about the sealant and how to properly care for the wood deck in the future. I will definitely hire MJM in the future for any deck and fencing restoration needs I have. Highly recommend!"

"Arneel’s is fantastic. They have removed several trees for us as well as several neighbors as well. They are always fair in price and clean up after themselves. Easy to work with and I ALWAYS recommend them if someone is looking for free service. Can’t recommend enough! Hire them, you won’t be sorry."

Sandblasting Services questions, answered by experts

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Sandblasting is useful when you need to strip material off a hard surface. Common reasons to sandblast are to remove paint, rust, or get a surface ready for a new material. You aren’t limited to surfaces like walls either—you can sandblast rusted tools, bicycle frames, cement, bricks, and many others. If what you’re sandblasting is still structurally sound, sandblasting can be a fast and inexpensive way to revive the original material. 

Yes, many professionals use dustless or water-based blasting methods for reduced environmental impact.

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.

Because these two systems have different applications, there is no definitive answer to which is better. When working with sturdy materials, sandblasting is cheaper and faster, but more delicate projects require soda blasting. Before choosing either option, consider your specific needs, particularly your ultimate goal (cleaning, removing rust, prepping for painting, etc.), the material, and your budget.
