Field Blasting & Painting Contractor Services
BLASTCO performs both new and maintenance field protective coating and lining applications for the industrial sector throughout North America. Our experienced teams are also able to undertake overseas projects.
Each of our teams has the equipment, personnel and project management experience to successfully complete any field protective coating project safely, on schedule and in complete compliance with local, state and federal environmental and safety regulations. We are frequently appointed as the general contractor to oversee all aspects of the project, allowing the customer to have a single point of contact throughout the job.
The efficiency of each team's organization is proven through a successful history of lead removal projects, which often become tedious and time consuming tasks. By using our in-hous designed containment enclosures and the latest technology for industrial coating application and surface preparation equipment, we have been able to decrease the labor required to setup and clean-up in the field for each lead removal project.
BLASTCO stands out in the field abrasive blasting and coatings industry not only because of the AMPP, NACE & AWWA certified quality that is guaranteed; but, also due to being recognized as a QP1 & QP2 certified contractor (CA#767974).
Adding to BLASTCO'S success is the relationship with Blastech and Tarsco, all under the TF Warren Group of companies.

Lead Abatement
BLASTCO has a safe and efficient system for completing the complex requirements for successful lead coating removal on older structures. It requires testing before and after the job to ensure there has not been any lead contamination to employees or environment.
Samples are taken from the air and soil of the environment and the blood of employees to monitor the level of lead being exposed to each. With this constant monitoring, it is apparent when lead contamination is occurring and appropriate measures can be taken.
The containment contraptions are also heavily monitored to be immediately aware of lead contaminated material escaping. Site supervisors are required to shut down the site until the containment can be rectified.
As always, results are heavily documented to trace BLASTCO'S health, safety and environmental responsibility.
