Medicine Hat is a brick town

This city is unusual for the prairies — brick dominates where other prairie cities built in wood, thanks to the I-XL works at Redcliff and an Edwardian brick downtown. That means a lot of masonry here is old, soft-fired and genuinely worth protecting.

Heritage brick — read thisAggressive blasting strips the hard fired skin off historic brick. Once that face is gone the masonry drinks water and starts spalling, and there is no putting it back. We work heritage brick wet and at low pressure, we test first, and if the brick is too soft we will tell you to leave it alone. A bad blast on a heritage facade is permanent.

What we take on

  • Coating and sealer removal from concrete floors, driveways and patios.
  • Exposed aggregate profiling for a decorative finish.
  • Stamped and coloured concrete — stripping tired sealer and bringing the colour back.
  • Entry steps, walkways and porches in concrete, stone or aggregate.
  • Line and marking removal from lots, parkades and industrial floors.
  • Brick and stone cleaning where the substrate can take it.

Surface profile is the deliverable

Most concrete coating failures are adhesion failures. A sealed, polished or contaminated slab gives a coating nothing to key into. Blasting opens the surface to a consistent profile so what goes on next stays on.
