"Bill made the time to come over. I tried 3 other businesses and everyone was too busy. He always answered his phone or texts. It wasn't a huge job. But, he also did not take advantage of me by doing more work than needed. I am pleased with the job."

I would certainly recommend their work to anyone and will be using them again myself. Thank you for your amazing attention to detail!"

The Customer was happy and we would definately hire Andy's company to do work again here at our business, Knight Marine Service, in Rockland, ME."
"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
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.

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.
