When you need to remove coatings, paint, rust, or prepare surfaces for renovation, you
need a team you can trust. RM Contractors (UK) Ltd has been providing specialist high-pressure
blasting services across the UK for over 35 years, helping property owners, facility
managers, and contractors safely and efficiently remove all types of materials from buildings
and infrastructure.
Whether you’re renovating a Victorian terrace with old paint to remove, maintaining
industrial infrastructure, preparing surfaces for new coatings, or restoring a heritage
building, our certified technicians have the expertise and equipment to get the job done
right the first time. We follow the HSE risk management hierarchy to minimise project risk
for all stakeholders.
Three Decades of Proven Experience Since 1987, we’ve been refining our approach to
surface preparation and coating removal. Our technicians don’t just operate equipment –
they understand the science behind safe blasting techniques and the regulations that
govern this specialised work. Any working at height requirements are predominantly
undertaken using MEWP’s that are LOLER compliant and all staff are fully trained and
competent with IPAF certified training and accreditation. When there is a need to remove
lead contaminated paint, our process are fully compliant with the Control of Lead
Regulations (2002). This ensures no contamination is released into the atmosphere. Instead,
it is securely captured in the equipment safely disposed of. The process is fully documented
and there is a robust audit trail from removal to ultimate disposal to demonstrate
compliance.

We document everything using iAuditor, including photos and compliance records, giving you peace of mind. After the job is complete, we review the project with you and offer continued support to ensure lasting value.
