Water blasting is a key part of road maintenance. Call Jet Blast Inc. for our services!
Spring through fall is asphalt paving and maintenance season in Maryland. When the temperature is above 50 degrees Fahrenheit, it’s time to tackle commercial, residential, and other paving projects; the best asphalt mix, hot mix asphalt, is only successful as a paving material under the right conditions. Jet Blast Inc. aids the transportation industry through professional water blasting for road maintenance. Here’s how.
How Water Blasting Works
If you aren’t sure what water blasting is, it is an industrial form of pressure washing. These high-pressure water nozzles can reach difficult areas, confined spaces, and broad, flat surfaces alike with a pressure up to 40,000 psi. While water blasts through a water blasting machine, a vacuum sucks up the wastewater to filter out and dispose of properly. Jet Blast Inc. has hydrovac trucks that can do powerful work for multiple applications, including car washes, power plants, commercial properties, reservoirs, and transportation systems.
Water Blasting for Road Maintenance
Pavement Marking Removal
One way Jet Blast Inc. utilizes water blasting for road maintenance is for pavement marking removal. Failure to totally remove pavement markings results in faded remnants that can confuse drivers, pedestrians, and others. Water blasting does a great job of removing markings and creating a good surface for new pavement markings to bond to.
Manhole Cleaning
Manhole cleaning is necessary from time to time to preserve the safety of the sewer lines underneath the manholes and the health and safety of employees using the manholes. Frequency of cleaning depends on different areas’ circumstances. Water blasting is effective not just in removing paint but also in cleaning surfaces of the toughest debris.
Storm Drain Cleaning
Stormwater management systems are not strictly part of road maintenance, but poor stormwater system maintenance can do a lot of damage to roads through flooding. Jet Blast Inc. has the equipment to clean out all parts of a storm drainage system, from catch basins to culverts. We also clean sewer lines and wastewater treatment plants through water blasting.
