"He was great. He's very polite. He's reliable. It says Family Powerwashing but he is a one man band. He has a big white box truck and there are reels and reels in the back of that when he opens his door. There are a huge engine and different concentrates of the different kinds he uses. So, he pulls up onto your property and when he's finished he wraps it all up and off he goes. He was able to be gentle in some area and really go after it in the eaves of the boat house where there are spiders. He did a wonderful job. There was a day that he said he was going to come finish up and he didn't show up. His prices aren't the cheapest but it is worth it. He answers his calls and gets back to you. Sometimes you have to wait a little bit for his services. He's not going to show up that day or the next day. His punctuality is not great. He'll say, I'll see you tomorrow morning at 8:00 and he might not show up until 9:00. He is honest in his work. He knows he has a job to do and he does it to the best of his ability. He doesn't rush through it and drive away. He takes his time to do a job that he's satisfied with."

Sandblasting Services questions, answered by experts

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.

Regular sealing and repainting help maintain the restored surface’s durability.

There are two ways sandblasting could be dangerous: improper use of the equipment so that the stream touches your skin, and air particles created during the sandblasting process. While the first is easier to avoid and fairly obvious, the second has the potential to be more serious and is much more difficult to understand. This is why you should always hire a pro to sandblast, as they understand the dangers associated with the process. If proper safety measures are taken, then sandblasting is rarely dangerous.

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.

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.
