Concrete sandblasting
Providing the best concrete finishes
Sandblasting concrete presents an abrasive blasting method. We use it to blast away concrete. Consequently, it exposes the aggregate under it. It results in a coarse surface finish. Additionally, we use this procedure to quickly remove paint, grime, or dirt. We also use it to remove graffiti.
The blasting degree is different. It depends on the concrete’s condition and the preferred result. In this regard, the sandblasting contractor in Darwin is a specialist in assessing textured surfaces carefully. Apart from this, we formulate an action plan. We ensure it is highly effective and efficient. We also guarantee this plan is appropriate for optimum conditioning.
Sandblasting concrete
As time passes, wear and tear leads to an inconsistent proportion between concrete’s cement and stone ratio. It mainly results in the aggregate becoming under-exposed. We need heavy blast cement removal in the built-up section. It helps to restore the concrete to its original condition. In addition, we require a whip blast. It gives you an exposed aggregate concrete finish. Sandblasting is effective in restoring your concrete. In other words, it results in a coating-free and non-slip solution.
Mostly sandblasting concrete is necessary when there are stones under the cement. So the restored finish exposes these stones. Consequently, you attain a coarse texture and balance the stone and cement ratio. Because of this, Australian Construction’s abrasive blasting media is ideal for refurbishing your concrete surfaces. We give you the concrete surface finishes you want.
During our sandblasting process, the abrasive material moves at high velocity. For this reason, it produces friction on the concrete surface we are preparing. But when we restore the concrete surface to its original condition, it needs specific processes. Special industrial sandblasting equipment is also essential. The reason is that the blasting rate depends on your concrete’s present condition.
Some parts of your concrete surface might need a light cleaning. However, other sections may require heavy cleaning. Meanwhile, other areas need deep cutting. As a result, you get the textured concrete finishes you want.
We can use any blasting tool for light blasting. However, at times the sandblasting contractor in Darwin intends to control the pressure and equipment media. Therefore, it is necessary to use our top performance sandblasting equipment. It produces different cut depths to the specific concrete. Our team uses stencils hence providing unique decorative patterns for more sandblasting requirements.
Methods of sandblasting
There are different sandblasting methods where concrete is concerned. For example, we use the following ways:
- Non-slip applications
- Patterns
- Exposed aggregate
- Removing undesirable coatings like oil, dirt or paint. It also removes unwanted chemicals.
Advantages of sandblasting concrete
- Comparatively, sandblasting concrete has more benefits than conventional surface restoration processes.
- It ensures the concrete finishes are even, regarding stone and cement ratio compared to using traditional techniques.
- Sandblasting is cheaper and more time-efficient than ripping the concrete up, disposing of the debris, and including another concrete layer.
- For this technology, we use compressed air. It makes the concrete produce abrasive material for an exposed aggregate. Due to this, the surface does not experience irreparable damage.
Conclusion
Australian Construction economically and effectively restores concrete. Hence the concrete goes back to the original surface condition. We do this using minimal effort for preparing for more treatment.
