Infrastructure & Construction
Infrastructure & Construction Cleaning Services in New Zealand
Construction and infrastructure works are of a large scale and usually in challenging outdoor and industrial conditions. Concrete residues and dust, rust and corroded old finishes, and environmental deposits are deposited on surfaces, and they have to be removed prior to repair, overcoating, or commissioning.
EcoBlast offers powerful and project-specific cleaning services for infrastructure and construction work with the use of sand blasting, dry ice blasting, and soda blasting according to the type of the surface, access, and project stage.
Cleaning Challenges in Infrastructure & Construction Projects
Projects in this sector commonly involve:
- Steel structures have heavy rust and corrosion.
- Residual concrete, laitance, and surface contamination.
- Removal of old paint and protective coating.
- Extensive surfaces and complicated accessibility.
- Shifts around the working sites and safety limitations.
We put a premium on durability, surface preparation, and location security.
Cleaning Methods for Infrastructure & Construction
Sand Blasting – Heavy-Duty Surface Preparation
The main one is sandblasting, adopted in construction and infrastructure settings.
- Good in the removal of rust and coating.
- Produces an appropriate surface profile of the coatings.
- Appropriate for bridges, beams, tanks and steel structures.
- Dust-controlled and contained performance.
- Dry Ice Blasting Controlled and Localised Cleaning.
Used where abrasion or water is not suitable.
- Equipment and machinery cleaning at the site.
- Control panels and electrical parts.
- Local cleaning with a minimum of secondary waste.
Soda Blasting – Selective Surface Cleaning
Applied for:
- Stone, masonry and delicate surfaces.
- Repair and renovation of buildings.
- Surface impact areas that are needed less.
Typical Infrastructure & Construction Applications
- Bridges and structural steel.
- Beams, columns, and supports
- Formwork and concrete surfaces.
- Industrial buildings and tanks.
- Equipment and machinery of construction.
- Pre-coatings or repair preparation of surfaces.
Benefits for Infrastructure & Construction Projects
- Good surface treatment to ensure long life.
- Better adhesion of the coating and performance.
- Less rework and early failure.
- Mean cleaning techniques to suit the site.
- More effective execution of the projects and much safer.
Our Project-Based Approach
- Site & Surface Assessment
We consider the type of structure, surface condition, access, and safety needs. - Method & Containment Planning
Blasting techniques and measures are chosen based on the site conditions. - Safe Execution On-Site
Work is done according to the construction safety measures. - Final Surface Verification
Ready surfaces are inspected to check that they are ready to receive a coating to be applied or to proceed to the next work.
