Services
Industrial Painting
We apply protective coatings to complex industrial structures including bridges, power plants, and water treatment facilities. Our SSPC QP1-certified team prepares surfaces through abrasive blasting and chemical treatments, ensuring durable adhesion for epoxy, urethane, and high-temperature coatings that withstand harsh environments.
Commercial Painting
Our commercial painting services cover hotels, schools, medical facilities, and parking garages. We handle interior and exterior projects with specialized techniques for wall coverings, wood finishing, and non-skid floor systems, maintaining aesthetic quality while meeting strict safety and durability standards for high-traffic spaces.
Metalizing
Using arc spray technology, we apply metallic coatings to steel components exposed to corrosive environments. This process protects bridge beams, crane parts, and industrial equipment through molten material deposition, offering long-term resistance to saltwater, chemicals, and extreme weather conditions when properly sealed.
Shop Painting
As an SSPC QP3-certified facility, we perform precision coatings in our controlled shop environment. This includes abrasive blasting, power tooling, and specification-driven paint applications for construction and manufacturing clients, with in-house NACE inspectors ensuring consistent quality across all coated components.
Lead Abatement
Our AMPP QP2-certified team safely removes lead-based coatings from industrial and marine structures. We implement containment systems, HEPA filtration, and proper waste disposal while maintaining compliance with environmental regulations, ensuring worker safety and preventing contamination during surface preparation projects.
