Structural steelwork
Beams, frames, supports and fabricated steel components requiring preparation or a renewed protective finish.
Industry support
Built to support
civil project work.
Workshop and suitable on-site surface preparation and finishing for the steelwork, equipment and fabricated assets civil contractors need to keep moving.
Civil
Where Kelmscott fits
Project support for hard-working civil assets.
Civil work often arrives with practical constraints: large or awkward steelwork, established project programs, transport and lifting requirements, and a finish that needs to suit the asset's operating environment.
Kelmscott brings preparation, protective finishing and project handling into one clear pathway. The team can assess transportable items for workshop work and fixed or difficult-to-move assets for suitable mobile blasting.
Infrastructure components
Rails, barriers, brackets, platforms and other exposed metalwork used across civil projects.
Plant and attachments
Suitable project equipment, buckets, attachments and working components affected by wear, corrosion or failed coatings.
Fixed site assets
Items that may be better assessed in place where transport to the workshop is not practical.
Project pressures
The finish matters. So does keeping the project moving.
A useful civil partner needs to understand more than the coating. Handling, access, sequencing and the required return condition all influence the job.
Preparation before protection
Rust, old coatings and contamination need to be removed appropriately so the specified finish has a sound surface to bond to.
Handling and logistics
Dimensions, weight, lifting points, delivery access and storage requirements are considered early rather than after the item arrives.
Practical turnaround
Quantity, project stage, required return date and any follow-on trades should be included so the work can be assessed against the wider program.
Relevant services
The right preparation and finish for the asset.
Choose the service you need, or send the project details and Kelmscott can help identify the most suitable pathway.
Sandblasting
Remove corrosion, old paint and failed coatings, then prepare civil steelwork and equipment for the next agreed finish.
Spray Painting
Apply a protective coating system to prepared steelwork, components and project equipment.
Mobile Blasting
Assess suitable fixed, oversized or difficult-to-transport assets for surface preparation on site.
Practical capability
Workshop capacity backed by practical project handling.
Kelmscott's secure Kelmscott facility supports larger transportable assets and components, with pickup and delivery available for suitable jobs. Mobile work can be assessed where the asset is better handled in place.
Workshop access
Share the overall dimensions, weight and lifting information so access and handling can be planned before delivery.
Pickup and delivery
Transport support is available for suitable work. Include the collection location and any access constraints with the enquiry.
Workshop or mobile
The team can advise whether the job is better suited to controlled workshop work or requires an on-site assessment.
Project requirements
Provide relevant drawings, specifications, coating requirements and inspection hold points when they apply.
Preparation in practice
A clean surface changes what can happen next.
Effective preparation removes the deteriorated surface and creates a controlled starting point for inspection, repair or an agreed protective coating.

Prepared surfaceWorking with Kelmscott
A practical path from scope to return.
Early project information helps the team assess handling, access, preparation, finish and timing before work is scheduled.
- 01
Send the scope
Share photos, dimensions, quantity, location, required finish and any project specification.
- 02
Confirm the pathway
Kelmscott assesses surface condition, workshop or site suitability, handling and timing.
- 03
Prepare and finish
The asset moves through the agreed blasting and protective finishing stages.
- 04
Inspect and return
The completed work is checked against the agreed scope and prepared for collection or delivery.
Civil project enquiry
Give the team enough detail to assess the job properly.
Photos and accurate dimensions help Kelmscott understand the asset, access, handling and project timing before the first conversation.
Useful details to include
- Photos of the full asset and close-ups of its current surface
- Dimensions, approximate weight, quantity and lifting points
- Project or collection location and access constraints
- Required preparation, finish and relevant specification
- Target completion date and any project hold points
