Ace Sandblasting has handled commercial surface prep across Texas since 1972. Concrete, structural steel, brick, tilt-up panels, metal framing, storage tanks. We know the surfaces, we know the specs, and we show up on schedule.
Commercial prep is not residential work scaled up. Surfaces are larger, tolerances are tighter, and the coating systems that follow are expensive. Bad prep costs everyone on the project.
We work directly with general contractors, painting subs, facility managers, and developers. Clear communication, reliable scheduling, work that meets spec. Our crews coordinate with project managers and site supervisors from start to finish.
Epoxy, urethane, moisture barriers, and decorative overlays all require proper surface profile to perform. We prep warehouse floors, retail slabs, parking decks, and manufacturing facilities to the ICRI profile your coating system requires.
Tilt-up panels need precise, uniform prep. Light sandblast finish opens the surface and removes laitance without heavily exposing aggregate — a clean profile for standard coatings. Heavy sandblast finish exposes more aggregate and creates a deeper mechanical bond for thick coatings, elastomeric systems, and textured architectural treatments.
Surface markings, sealers, and contamination removed ahead of resealing, restriping, or coating. We schedule around your operations so the facility stays functional.
Poured-in-place concrete prepped after formwork removal. Removes form release agents and opens surface texture for protective or decorative coatings.
Decades of paint, sealant buildup, pollution, and graffiti removed from brick facades without damaging masonry or mortar. Pressure and media matched to brick age and porosity.
We blast to SSPC and NACE standards including SSPC-SP5 White Metal, SSPC-SP10 Near-White Metal, and SSPC-SP6 Commercial Blast. The profile is matched to your coating manufacturer’s spec and your project engineer’s requirement.
Mill scale, rust, and surface contamination removed from pre-fabricated framing components and secondary structural members before priming. Mill scale is an adhesion barrier. Skipping this step will cost more later.
Interior and exterior blasting on above-ground storage tanks, process vessels, water tanks, and industrial containment structures. We work to the specified SSPC or NACE standard for your lining or coating system. Crews trained and equipped for confined space and elevated surface work.
Older commercial buildings carry layers of paint, sealant, and weathering that surface cleaning cannot address. We strip building exteriors back to a clean, prepared substrate before new coatings go on.
Complete removal from brick and concrete without ghosting. Call fast. The longer it sits, the deeper it absorbs. (512) 712-8229.
Commercial schedules do not follow a nine-to-five. Deadlines compress, weather creates narrow windows, and prep work sometimes needs to happen overnight or on weekends.
Ace Sandblasting is available around the clock, every day of the year.
