    Our End-To-End Fire Escape Restoration Solution

    Our external staircase shot blasting services effectively remove stubborn rust, multiple layers of old paint, and years of weather damage. We start by securing the area, then use precision on-site shot blasting to strip away surface contamination while preserving the structural integrity of the metalwork. The result is a clean, profiled surface ready for immediate protective treatment to stop rust — ensuring your fire escape remains structurally sound, safe, and fully compliant with UK fire safety regulations.

    Same Day Prep & Coat Delivery

    Preparation & Containment

    We begin by protecting all surrounding areas, windows, and brickwork with heavy-duty sheeting and seals, ensuring that dust, rust particles, and old paint flakes are safely contained. Detailed risk assessments and method statements guide every project, guaranteeing a controlled, compliant working environment — especially crucial when working at height on external steel structures.

    Precision Blasting

    Using advanced mobile shot blasting techniques, we remove layers of stubborn rust, old paint, and corrosion without harming the solid metal substrate beneath. Our skilled operators adjust abrasive media type and pressure to suit the specific condition of the steel or ironwork — whether decorative railings or heavy structural steelwork — achieving a thorough near-white metal finish across treads, stringers, handrails, and fixings.

    Final Clean Down

    Once blasting is complete, our team conducts a meticulous clean-up, safely collecting and disposing of all waste and spent abrasive in line with environmental regulations. The surface is left perfectly profiled and ready for immediate priming. Because raw blasted steel can begin to flash rust within hours, we are also able to apply protective primers, epoxy systems, or fire-rated intumescent paint on the same day — removing the risk of delays between blasting and coating.
