Send us the steelwork details, the condition it is in and what needs to happen after blasting. We’ll help turn that into a practical plan.
Tell us which steelwork is included, what condition it is in, how we can get to it and what is happening next—whether that is primer, a coating system or galvanising. If you have a spec, send it over too. We will plan the blast work around the actual steel and site, not guess from a generic grade.
Yes. At the HB Tunnelling warehouse in Doncaster, our five-person team carried out abrasive blasting, got primer on straight after and then applied intumescent fire-protective coating as one coordinated package. We will plan your sequence around your own spec and site set-up.
Before blasting: Mill scale, rust grade A–D, old primer, weld spatter, oil contamination
After blasting: Sa 2.5 or Sa 3 cleanliness; 40–75 µm anchor profile for coating adhesion
Shot blasting is required before hot-dip galvanising and before intumescent fire protection coatings. Wire brushing or power tool cleaning cannot achieve the anchor profile needed for long-term coating adhesion on structural steelwork.
See how a five-person specialist team delivered abrasive blasting, immediate primer protection and intumescent fire-protective painting as one coordinated scope for the HB Tunnelling Doncaster warehouse refurbishment.
Keeping surface preparation and fire protection together reduced handovers between trades and supported continuous progress through the refurbishment programme.
