"Excellent job, would hire again in a heartbeat. Needed someone to help my daughter who lives an hour from me with some yard and home projects that I was not able to help with. Jeff called me quickly after requesting a quote, and agreed to look at the needed work that evening. He did, gave me an estimate, and we accepted. A day/time was agreed on, and he and one other showed up on time, and did an excellent job. We had some other things that needed attention as well, and asked him to quote us on that as well. We agreed on a price for that work, and he just completed it this past Saturday. He is prompt, communicates well, and his prices were fair. Excellent choice, use his services with confidence."

Sandblasting Services questions, answered by experts
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.
The disadvantages of sandblasting are noise, mess, and risk. Sandblasters are louder than chainsaws and spread debris on the ground and through the air. Let your neighbors know that you're sandblasting so they can prepare. Sandblasting can damage your property if not done properly, so thoroughly vet any pros you talk to before hiring.
Yes, many professionals use dustless or water-based blasting methods for reduced environmental impact.
Sandblasting refers to the process of cleaning a surface using compressed air and aggregate. Soda blasting is the gentlest type of this method, but it differs from sandblasting that uses mineral or other aggregate, since sodium bicarbonate breaks apart more easily than other forms of blast media and, therefore, cannot be reused.
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.
