Construction

Aquamax offers a wide range of water jetting applications to the construction sector.

We can offer equipment across variable pressures and flow-rates to enable the right water jetting solution for the job.

Large commercial and infrastructure projects often require hydrodemolition. This remarkable service excavates concrete from around rebar without damaging the embedded steel. Unlike mechanical breakout, engineers can be confident that structure and steel work is undamaged as a result of the process.

Another commonly requested service is scabbling. Concrete is scabbled to provide a key in the surface to form a construction joint often referred to as a ‘Type B construction joint’.

The residential sector utilises low pressure water blasting service for general cleaning or exposing aggregate. In case of problems, we can create an exposed aggregate finish on hardened concrete using our ultra-high-pressure equipment.

For projects where runoff and noise is a concern, we can supply our unique low flow rate equipment either in electric or diesel configuration. For heavier work we utilise our high flow rate gear.
