On-Site Shot Blasting for Construction & Agricultural Equipment
Our mobile plant and machinery shot blasting service brings professional surface preparation directly to your site. We specialize in restoring construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and industrial plant without the need for transportation. From excavators and bulldozers to tractors and harvesters, we remove rust, old paint, and corrosion to extend equipment lifespan, maintain resale value, and ensure your machinery meets safety and compliance standards.
Our team visits your location to assess the machinery, determine blast media requirements, and plan containment setup to protect surrounding areas.
We protect sensitive components like hydraulics, electronics, and bearings. Critical areas are masked to ensure only intended surfaces are blasted.
Professional containment systems are deployed to capture blast media and debris, ensuring waste management and site cleanliness.
Using appropriate blast media for the equipment type, we systematically remove rust, paint, and corrosion from all accessible surfaces.
We inspect all blasted surfaces to ensure complete rust removal and proper surface profile for coating adhesion.
If required, we can coordinate protective coating application immediately after blasting to prevent flash rusting and maximize protection.
Follow these steps to ensure your project runs smoothly
Contact us to arrange a free site visit. We will assess the machinery, identify sensitive components, and provide a written quote for the blasting work.
Before our team arrives, ensure all machinery to be blasted is fully isolated from electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic supplies. Follow your site lockout/tagout procedure. Our team will not blast energised equipment.
Identify bearings, seals, electrical connections, gauges, and other sensitive components that must not be blasted. Our team will mask these before work begins, but a list or marked-up drawing prepared in advance speeds up the process.
Ensure a clear working zone around the machinery. Remove adjacent equipment, materials, and vehicles from the blast area. A minimum 3-metre clearance is recommended.
Coordinate with a painting or coating contractor to apply protective treatment promptly after blasting. Bare steel machinery surfaces will begin to oxidise within hours — prompt coating is essential for a durable result.
"Exceptional quality and professionalism. The surface preparation was perfect — exactly what we needed before coating."
"Fast turnaround, competitive pricing, and the results speak for themselves. Highly recommend for any industrial project."
"Used them for structural steel on our new facility. Clean, efficient, and the team were brilliant on site."
We provide plant & machinery shot blasting services across the UK. Here are some of our key service areas:
Yes, our mobile shot blasting service is specifically designed to work on-site. We bring all necessary equipment, containment systems, and blast media to your location, eliminating the need for expensive transportation and minimizing equipment downtime.
We can shot blast virtually any construction or agricultural equipment including excavators, bulldozers, loaders, cranes, tractors, harvesters, compressors, generators, and more. Our mobile setup adapts to equipment of all sizes from small attachments to large earthmoving machinery.
Before blasting begins, our experienced team carefully masks and protects all sensitive components including hydraulic systems, electrical components, bearings, seals, and glass. We use specialized protective materials and techniques developed specifically for machinery restoration.
No, when performed by experienced professionals using appropriate blast media and pressure settings, shot blasting is completely safe for machinery. We select media types and blast parameters specifically for each equipment type and surface condition to ensure effective cleaning without damage.
Project duration varies based on equipment size and condition. A small excavator attachment might take 4-6 hours, while a large excavator or bulldozer could require 2-3 days. We provide accurate time estimates during our initial site assessment.
Yes, we can coordinate protective coating application immediately after blasting. This is highly recommended as freshly blasted metal surfaces can begin to oxidize within hours. We work with trusted coating specialists or can apply primer coatings ourselves to ensure maximum corrosion protection.
Shot blasting is significantly more effective than manual methods. It completely removes rust down to bare metal, creates an ideal surface profile for coating adhesion, and works 10-20 times faster than manual grinding or wire brushing. The result is superior surface preparation that extends equipment life.
We use professional containment systems that capture all blast media and debris, preventing environmental contamination. After completion, we thoroughly clean the work area, remove all waste materials, and leave your site in pristine condition. Our processes comply with all waste management practices.
