Hydroblasting is ideal for highways, car parks, airports and warehouses where clean removal is critical.
Our specialist equipment and trained teams deliver fast, efficient results with minimal disruption.
What is Hydroblasting?
Hydroblasting is a high-pressure water jetting method used to remove road markings, surface coatings, rubber deposits and contaminants without damaging the underlying surface.
Hydro blasting uses controlled streams of water, typically above 30,000 psi, to break down and lift materials from asphalt or concrete. Unlike grinding or burning methods, hydroblasting in Oxfordshire creates no dust, uses no chemicals and leaves no scorch marks.
It’s ideal for removing thermoplastic, paint and MMA markings on roads, runways, car parks and industrial floors. Hydroblasting preserves surface integrity, reduces environmental impact and allows for fast re-marking or resurfacing.
What is Hydroblasting Used for?
Hydroblasting is used for precise removal of surface coatings, contaminants and markings without damaging the base material. It’s widely applied across roads, runways, industrial sites and marine environments because it offers clean, controlled results with minimal disruption.
Common uses of hydro blasting in Oxfordshire include:
Line marking removal in Oxfordshire: Strips thermoplastic, paint and MMA from roads, car parks, runways and warehouse floors
Surface preparation: Cleans and textures concrete or asphalt before resurfacing, sealing or re-marking
Rubber removal: Clears rubber build-up on airport runways to restore skid resistance and friction levels
Coating and adhesive removal: Eliminates epoxy, resin, adhesives and non-slip coatings from floors or decks
Contaminant removal: Removes oil, fuel, grime, algae or chemical residues from industrial surfaces
Marine and offshore cleaning: Strips coatings, rust or biofouling from ship decks, tanks and platforms
Hydroblasting in Oxfordshire is chosen because it avoids surface damage, leaves no residue, and supports fast turnaround for reapplication or resurfacing.
How much does Hydroblasting Cost in Oxfordshire?
The average cost of hydroblasting is £10 - £25 per square metre.

What are the Benefits of Hydroblasting?
Hydroblasting offers clean, efficient and surface-safe removal of markings and contaminants. It is widely used because it delivers precision without causing damage or environmental harm.
No Surface Damage - Hydroblasting removes paint, thermoplastic and coatings in Oxfordshire without scarring or degrading asphalt or concrete. This preserves surface integrity and avoids costly repairs.
Dust-Free and Chemical-Free - The process uses only high-pressure water, producing no dust or hazardous fumes. It improves air quality on site and removes the need for abrasive materials or solvents.
Highly Precise - Operators can target specific markings or areas without affecting surrounding surfaces. This is ideal for partial removals, corrections or line layout changes.
Environmentally Friendly - Water-based removal reduces environmental impact and supports sustainability goals. Wastewater is collected and managed to meet environmental standards.
Fast Turnaround - Hydroblasting is quick to set up and complete, minimising disruption. Surfaces are ready for re-marking or resurfacing almost immediately.
Versatile Applications - It works on roads, car parks, airfields, warehouses, bridges and industrial floors. It also removes rubber, oil, adhesives and coatings from a wide range of surfaces.
These benefits make hydroblasting the preferred method for safe, compliant and effective line removal across public and private infrastructure.
What is the Hydroblasting Process?
The hydroblasting process in Oxfordshire uses high-pressure water to remove surface markings, coatings or contaminants with precision and minimal disruption. It follows a controlled method to ensure safe, effective and damage-free results.
Site Assessment - We inspect the surface type, marking material, area size and access conditions. This determines the pressure level, equipment setup and waste management requirements.
Equipment Setup - Specialist hydroblasting units are positioned safely with water supply, waste capture and pressure control systems. We apply traffic management if working on public roads.
Surface Cleaning - The target area is cleaned of loose debris to ensure consistent water contact. This step improves removal accuracy and efficiency.
High-Pressure Water Application - Water is delivered through a rotating or oscillating nozzle at pressures up to 40,000 psi. The jet breaks the bond between the coating and surface without damaging the substrate.
Wastewater Recovery - Dislodged material and water are vacuumed immediately into a recovery system. This prevents environmental contamination and leaves a clean, dry surface.
Final Inspection - The area is checked to confirm all markings or contaminants have been removed. If needed, a second pass is made for deep or stubborn layers.
Reinstatement - Once clean and dry, the surface is ready for immediate re-marking, sealing or further treatment.
Hydroblasting is fast, clean and highly effective. It meets safety and environmental standards, making it ideal for roads, airports, car parks and industrial sites.

Playground Marking Removal in Oxfordshire
The process of playground marking removal in Oxfordshire is common in schools and nurseries. Old macadam surfaces with worn-out activity line markings can look unsightly and need to be removed.
We can remove these tarmac thermoplastic graphics in a number of different ways, which give a clean play area for new graphics to be installed.
Hydroblasting can be done for playground markings removal to get the existing thermoplastics off the surfacing area in an environmentally friendly way.
This hydro blast method uses water so it’s suitable for use on more textured and delicate areas for removing playground markings without causing damage to the tarmac underneath.

Simply because it can be time-consuming without the correct machinery. But also because you can end up damaging the walls or floors if you do not know how to do this properly. Below shows the graffiti removal machine we use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Hydroblasting the Same as Pressure Washing?
Hydroblasting and pressure washing are different cleaning techniques.
Hydro blasting uses a more powerful water pressure compared to pressure washing.
What are the Risks Associated with Hydroblasting?
The potential risks to the operator include injuries from the water jets, slips and falls.
There are risks to the surface or equipment if the contractor is not using the correct applications.
What are the Safety Precautions that Need to be Taken when Hydroblasting?
Hydroblasting should be carried out by professionals in Oxfordshire who have experience with the machines and type of equipment.
The safety precautions should include PPE safety gear (glasses for eye protection, gloves and earplugs).
What is the Best Way to Prepare for Hydroblasting?
Hydro blasting preparation will vary for each project, but it is important to choose the right blasting equipment for the job, and the area should be free from loose objects.
