We specialise in high quality galvanizing to extend the life of your steel and iron products. This involves coating metal with a durable layer of Zinc, offering powerful protection against corrosion in even the harshest environments.
However, this process needs to start with the correct preparation. Contaminants like dirt, grease, and oil can cause coatings to peel or flake. That’s why we use shot blasting, a process that cleans and prepares the metal using high speed abrasives ensuring the Zinc sticks perfectly.
By thoroughly removing impurities like rust, scale, and grease, we create the ideal conditions for a strong, even Zinc coating. This results in a high quality finish that significantly enhances the durability and lifespan of your products, even in demanding environments.

What about the disadvantages and how we minimise them at B.B Price?
While this entire process offers excellent corrosion protection, it’s important to be aware of some limitations:
Surface Appearance
- The finishes may have a mottled or uneven appearance, which may not meet visual or aesthetic expectations for architectural applications.
- Our solution: We ensure consistent surface preparation with in-house shot blasting, improving both adhesion and surface stability.
Not Ideal For All Metals
- It is typically suited to steel and iron. It’s not appropriate for some other metals though, such as aluminum or copper.
- Our solution: We provide expert advice on material selection and can recommend alternative coatings if this method isn’t appropriate.
Initial Cost vs Paint
- Compared to basic paint coatings, this method may be more costly.
- Our solution: But this does offer far greater long term saving due to its extended service life and minimal maintenance requirements.
By handling this entire process in-house and providing expert technical support, B.B. Price helps you overcome these challenges, delivering a reliable, long lasting protective finish every time.

In many cases, galvanised metal can perform effectively for 40 to over 100 years, making it a great investment long term.
It also arrives ready to use, requiring no further surface preparation or coating, which helps reduce installation time on site.
