Blasting & concrete work in San Carlos
Industrial Road light manufacturing and shops, Laurel Street storefronts, residential garages.
Those are the jobs we see most in San Carlos: stripping failed paint and coatings before a new finish, blasting rust off steel so it can be coated, cleaning graffiti off block and concrete, and grinding or polishing concrete floors. Every job starts with identifying the coating and what's under it, then a test patch so you see the result before we commit.
