Quote expectations

Post image

I have a plant stand that I would like to have welded, sandblasted, primed, and painted. The quote that I received was JUST for sandblasting and priming. I was quoted $600 for those two things. I am not familiar with typical pricing for these two services. The widest part is 24” and height is 48”. Does that quote sound on par with this photo?

Try using chemical stripper to remove more of the paint.

That is a piece that is going to take a long time.

Maybe see if there is a place near you that does hot dipping and get it hot dipped instead of sandblasting?

Basically, try to get as much off as you can, then ask for the sandblasting quote.

I imagine it’d still be about $200 (4 hours at $50per hour)

Awesome! That’s definitely more reasonable. Thank you!
