Our Services
LEAD PAINT ABATEMENT
As a licensed lead abatement contractor, we can handle the complete lead abatement process, including testing, removal, disposal, and recoat or painting of the structure.
BRIDGE & STRUCTURE PAINTING
We offer painting of new and existing steel and concrete bridges, walls, and barrier rails. We own the proper equipment to prep all surfaces prior to painting, including hydro blasting technology. We ensure all steps are in compliance with local, state, and federal regulations, and deliver results that will help to keep your infrastructure safe and sound for years to come.
ASBESTOS ABATEMENT
As a multi-state licensed asbestos abatement contractor, we can perform asbestos abatement of the following from bridges: textured coating from concrete bridge components, expansion joints, conduit, piping, guard rail pads and various caulks and sealants.
ENCAPSULATION AND OVERCOATING
With our skilled team and in-house technology, we provide turnkey services to abate or encapsulate/overcoat bridges and other structural steel, offering hand tool spot abatement and water blasting to meet all specifications for restoration or aesthetics.
HYDRO BLASTING TECHNOLOGY / WATER & ABRASIVE BLASTING
Ultra-high pressure (up to 40,000 PSI) water blasting “Spin-Jet” coating removal. The result is an emission-free system that leaves a clean, dry surface. This process can also be used for coatings containing lead, asbestos, and other hazardous and non-hazardous materials.
SUSPENDED SCAFFOLDING AND TEMPORARY WORK PLATFORMS
We offer cable and decking-type work platforms and scaffolding for under-bridge access over water or elevated structures. We have the necessary equipment to access the various work levels of a bridge safely and efficiently with minimal disruptions.
TRAFFIC CONTROL
Our team will provide all necessary traffic controls and lane shutdowns day or night with the ability to perform bridge abatement and removal services.
Why & When is Bridge Painting & Coating Important?
Bridge painting and coating services can be completed as needed, based on the inspected condition rating of the current bridge paint coating. A solid coating foundation and maintenance allows bridges to last throughout their designed service life, strengthening the structure, and preventing it from potentially turning into a public safety issue or a major preservation project. Proper treatment allows for the underlying steel and concrete to be protected and prevent corroding or rusting of the structure.
