Sandblasting Lancelin
Cray boats, farm gear and salt-eaten coastal steel — blasted where they sit, two hours north of the yard.
Blasting in Lancelin
Lancelin is a fishing and farming town that happens to sit on one of the windiest, saltiest stretches of the WA coast. Boats, trailers, outdoor steel and machinery all age faster here, and coatings that would last years in the metro chalk out and lift early.
The rig travels up Indian Ocean Drive with its own compressor, water and abrasive, so nothing is needed from the property — useful on beach blocks, farm sheds and the hardstand alike.

In short
Lancelin is covered on our north coast run. Work here is batched with Ledge Point, Seabird and Guilderton so travel is shared rather than carried by one job. Send photos and your timing and we will tell you when the next run is. Call 0458 531 878.
What we blast around Lancelin
Boats, pots and trailers. Anti-foul, growth and failed coatings off hulls and running gear, plus the galvanised trailers and frames that live half their life in salt water. See marine sandblasting.
Coastal steel on houses and shacks. Balustrades, gates, pergolas, roller doors and roof steel taken back to sound metal and recoated for a marine environment rather than a suburban one.
Farm machinery from the hinterland. Seeders, bins, feeders, headers and trailers off properties around Gingin and Dandaragan, blasted and primed in the shed or the paddock. See agriculture sandblasting.
Mobile or workshop
Most Lancelin work is done on site because the drive makes a second trip expensive. Smaller removable items — wheels, gates, frames, engine parts — often travel back to the Perth workshop with us and return coated on the next run.
Wind, sand and salt on the Lancelin coast
The sea breeze here is strong enough to be a tourist attraction, and it decides how a job runs. Wet blasting is the answer: water in the abrasive stream makes the fines too heavy to carry on the wind, so the work stays at the base of the piece instead of drifting across the neighbouring block or into the water. We screen the upwind side and, if a day is too windy to lay down a coating properly, we blast and prime rather than rush a topcoat.
Salt load is the other difference. Chloride sitting in pits and under old coating will blister a new system from underneath, so coastal steel gets washed down and checked before anything goes on it, and bare metal is primed the same day it is blasted.

Lancelin questions
Working in Lancelin
Do you travel to Lancelin?
Yes. Lancelin sits on our north coast run up Indian Ocean Drive, batched with Ledge Point, Seabird and Guilderton so travel is spread across the jobs on the trip.
Can you blast a boat at the hardstand?
Yes — hulls, running gear, trailers and frames, with containment set up before we start so nothing reaches the water or the boat parked next to it.
Will the wind stop the job?
Rarely. Wet media stays where it lands in wind that would carry dry dust across the street. Coating is the part that needs a calmer window, so on a bad day we blast and prime and topcoat on the next visit.
Do you need my water or power?
No. The rig carries its own air, water, abrasive and containment, which is what makes farm sheds, paddocks and beach blocks workable.
Can you strip salt damage off a holiday home?
Yes. Balustrades, gates, pergolas, roller doors and roof steel get taken back to sound metal, checked for chloride and primed the same day.
Can you do farm machinery out of town?
Yes. Properties around Gingin and Dandaragan are handled on the same run — seeders, bins, feeders and trailers blasted where they stand.
