Abrasive Blasting
Surface preparation for steel, fabricated components and industrial equipment.
Blasting is performed in enclosed booths to SSPC/AMPP surface preparation standards, with media and cleanliness levels selected based on the substrate and the coating system going on after.
Because coating is done in the same building, blasted components move directly into the paint booths without re-exposure between steps.
What we blast: structural steel beams, columns and fabricated assemblies; pressure vessels and industrial tanks; skids and modular process equipment; equipment frames, bases and machine housings; piping systems and fittings; vehicles, trailers and fleet equipment; stairs, platforms and railing systems; marine components and hardware; municipal and heavy equipment; military and government equipment; generator frames and power infrastructure; data center enclosures and infrastructure; architectural metalwork.
Standards: SSPC/AMPP surface preparation standards, project and engineer-specified cleanliness levels, manufacturer technical data sheet requirements, and MIL-SPEC surface preparation requirements when applicable.
Media: aluminum oxide in multiple grits for varying profile requirements; glass bead for lighter cleaning and smoother finishes; specialty and low-aggressive media for sensitive substrates or tight tolerances.
Every component is inspected before it moves out of the blast booth; surface profile is verified with a PosiTector Advanced inspection tool, and environmental conditions are monitored to prevent flash rust between blasting and coating.
Protective Coatings
Coating steel and infrastructure to last.
We apply protective coating systems to fabricated steel, structural assemblies, pressure vessels, skids and engineered equipment.
Coating work is performed in two enclosed, climate-controlled paint booths, with bake-cure available for applications that require it.
What we coat: fabricated structural steel assemblies and weldments; pressure vessels and industrial tanks; skids, frames and modular process equipment; data center infrastructure, enclosures and racking; marine components and hardware; military and government equipment (MIL-spec capable); industrial equipment frames, bases and housings; power generation and energy infrastructure components; piping systems, fittings and process components.
Coating systems: zinc-rich primers (organic and inorganic); epoxy intermediates and high-build coats; polyurethane and aliphatic urethane topcoats; chemical- and abrasion-resistant systems; high-temperature coatings; marine-grade coating systems; military specification (MIL-spec) coatings; project-specified and engineer-specified systems; powder coat.
System selection is driven by substrate, exposure environment, service temperature and specification requirements.
Quality: surface cleanliness and profile verified before coating; wet and dry film thickness (WFT/DFT) inspection at every coat; environmental condition monitoring during application (temperature, dew point, humidity); documentation packages available.
Metal Fabrication
Most contractors are coordinating between a metal fabricator and a separate coating shop. We eliminate that.
Built here. Finished here. We fabricate your custom metalwork and handle all surface preparation and finishing in our controlled indoor facility.
We work directly with contractors and project managers on commercial, institutional and high-end residential projects across the region.
Materials: carbon steel, stainless steel, galvanized steel and aluminum.
What we fabricate: custom stairs and stair systems; floating and cantilevered staircases; handrails and guardrails; interior and exterior cable rail systems; glass panel railing systems; ornamental and estate fencing; entry and driveway gates; loft and mezzanine railings; balconies and balustrades; fire escapes and steel exits; ADA-compliant railings and safety barriers; platforms, ladders and access components; decorative and architectural steel assemblies; light structural steel and miscellaneous metals.
Fabrication to finish: field verification and measurement when required; shop fabrication; layout, alignment and welding; AWS D1.1-certified structural steel welding where applicable; MIG, TIG and stick welding; in-house abrasive blasting; powder coat, paint systems and specialty finishes; fit verification prior to delivery; field installation and site coordination.
Fabrication overflow support during peak production for steel fabrication shops.
Refinishing
Most equipment doesn't need to be replaced, it needs to be stripped, prepped and recoated properly.
We blast to bare metal, prep to SSPC standards, and apply a new coating system that extends the life of your equipment significantly.
We work with fleet operators, manufacturers, industrial facilities, and equipment owners who need a reliable refinishing partner without coordinating multiple vendors.
We refinish carbon steel, stainless steel, Corten steel, aluminum, cast iron, bronze, copper and other metals for fleet vehicles, trucks and trailers; plows, spreaders and municipal equipment; paper and pulp machinery; manufacturing and production equipment; agricultural and heavy equipment; generators, compressors and mechanical assemblies; marine hardware; military and government equipment; tanks, vessels and process equipment; skids, frames and modular assemblies; architectural sculptures and statues.
Bedliner and undercoating: spray-on bedliner and wax-based undercoating for fleet vehicles, trucks, trailers, municipal equipment, and military panels and components, combined with a full refinishing scope or quoted as a standalone service.
Process: equipment intake and condition assessment; full strip and abrasive blast to SSPC standards; surface cleanliness verification; primer, intermediate and topcoat application; DFT inspection at every coat; environmental monitoring; documentation packages for spec-driven work; pickup or delivery back to your facility or job site.
