People are flooding into the Auckland area, enticed by the amount of work available in all sorts of fields; plumbing, building, electrical, painting, roofing and more. They’re also offering their services in the field of water blasting. The problem is, most of these people are unqualified, inexperienced and unskilled. That’s certainly the case with many of the amateurs going around the city offering water blasting as a service. They’re best avoided. When it comes to water blasting in Auckland, it is always best to call in professionals. Here’s why.
For a start, a company like ours will always use the right equipment for different situations. One water blaster will not be suitable for every project – there are different things to factor in, especially the material or surface that is being treated. But many of the cowboy operators out there have bought a cheap water blaster and they’ll use this for every project. This might result in too much pressure on softer materials, and some of the results are horrendous. On the other hand, not enough pressure will hardly resolve the issue. This is particularly dangerous on pathways, driveways and patios that can become very slippery due to the build-up of moss and mould in humid conditions. This is why you really should avoid anyone with just one piece of gear, The legitimate companies, like ours, will always assess the job and make a decision on what equipment to use based on what they see.
Another thing to be wary of is people using the incorrect technique. There’s more to water blasting than you might think. There’s actually a proper way of doing it without leaving gouging and other marks that only become apparent once the area is dry. Our team of water blasting professionals is highly trained and knows which technique to employ. On the other hand, the fly-by-nighters do not, and that will be evident when you see the mess they leave behind.
Legitimate companies like ours will have a long history of good reviews on their website, as well as on search engines like Google. Furthermore, we can come to your home or business for a free quote and at this point, you’ll see you’re dealing with professionals who actually know what they’re doing and will guarantee their work. Not everyone offering water blasting services in Auckland can say the same thing, so we say you should play it safe and deal with true professionals; give us a call!
