"He and his team did the job well, in a timely fashion. They were easy to work with too. We recommend him for any Job with these services; sandblasting or dry ice blasting. The price was reasonable too; for the services rendered they were on par with their competition and looking at the end product better quality the others we saw. Well worth the price."

"Excellent service from start to finish. When called for an estimate Eddie called back then came by promptly. We have huge pine trees in our backyard and the gutters fill up with pine needles. In addition the rear gutter on the 2nd floor was pulling away from the house and needed repair. Why was the gutter pulling away from the house you ask? My fault: thinking I could clean out the gutters myself, I bought an extension pole and grabber type screw on tool for the end of the pole that allows you (in theory) to grab leaves, dirt, whatever laying in the gutters. Well, it is not as easy as depicted. I am 6'1, 215 pounds and it was a pain in the butt moving that pole around and trying to manipulate the tool at the end. I removed some of the leaves, but much remained (as evidenced the next time it rained and the gutters were still clogged). Bottom line: After trying numerous times to grab leaves, etc. in the gutter with this tool, I ended up pulling the 2nd floor gutter away from the house by about 8-10 inches (gutters were put on in 1987). Eddie and crew arrived as promised earlier today, expertly cleaned out all the gutters and reattached the rear 2nd floor gutter to our home. No mess, no additional "surprise" charges. Total professionals. Word to the wise: forget trying to do it yourself, not worth it - have Eddie and his crew come over and clean out your gutters, perform any needed repairs and whatever else maybe needed. There is a reason why his family-run company is #1, because they are the best. Thanks for reading."

"In February 2025, Haris assisted me with several projects. He assembled a set of 8 dining room chairs and they turned out beautifully. He also assisted me with my dryer which was having several issues. He diagnosed the issue and assisted me with a resolution. Haris is very knowledgeable and can assist people with just about any project. He is quick to respond to inquiries and messages from clients. He is very personable and friendly. I will be contacting him for future protects and I highly recommend him to others."

Sandblasting Services FAQs, answered by experts

Sand is a common sublayer for hardscape features like driveways, paver patios, and more. Most projects that involve sand require a 1-inch layer to promote evenness, drainage, and weight distribution. For further drainage, most projects have a 6-inch minimum layer of gravel beneath the sand. 

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.

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.

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.

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.
