Yonkers keeps more working iron than any city in Westchester. The excavation, paving, and demo contractors staged along Nepperhan Avenue and Saw Mill River Road run excavators, loaders, and rollers that spend their lives in wet Northeast dirt, and that combination writes the same story on every machine: rust creeping out of the pin bosses, paint flaking off the counterweight, and a fleet that looks ten years older than its hour meter says. Blasting is how that story gets rewritten. Down to bare steel, primed the same day, painted like the machine just left the dealer.
Mount Vernon Sandblasting runs Yonkers as its first ring, ten minutes up the parkway with a fully mobile rig: compressor, pot, media, and containment come to your yard, so a machine never leaves the schedule to get refinished. The common Yonkers calls are full machine blasts before repaint, bucket and attachment stripping, dump body refinishing, and structural steel prep on renovation jobs where old coatings have to come off before a welder or painter can start.
Every job is priced from the published table: hourly rates, per-machine ranges, and what moves each number, so a fleet manager can budget a winter repaint program without guesswork. Batching matters here more than anywhere: a Yonkers yard day that blasts two machines and a set of attachments spreads the mobilization across all of it.
Why fleet repaints belong in winter
Winter is the smart season for Yonkers fleets. Machines sit more between December and March, paint cures fine in a heated shop after we blast outside or under cover, and a fleet that goes into April with fresh coatings spends the season working instead of rusting. Book the repaint program when the plows come off, not when the first auction listing goes up.

What Yonkers fleet managers ask
How much does it cost to sandblast an excavator in Yonkers?
A mid-size excavator typically runs $2,000 to $3,500 blasted to bare metal and primed, depending on machine size, how thick the old coatings and rust are, and how much masking the glass and hydraulics need. Smaller machines like skid steers run less, larger dozers more. The full per-machine table is on our cost page, and the quote you get matches it.
Do you come to our yard or do we haul the machine somewhere?
We come to you. The rig is fully mobile: compressor, blast pot, media, and containment all arrive on the truck, and most machine jobs finish in a day at your yard. Not hauling a 20-ton machine across the county is usually worth more than the blast itself.
Is repainting old equipment actually worth the money?
On resale, usually yes. A documented blast and repaint typically adds around $5,000 to a machine’s resale value and moves it faster, because buyers read fresh, honest paint as a cared-for machine. On keepers, the math is corrosion: rust caught at the surface is a paint job, rust left alone becomes pitting and plate work.
What happens to the spent media and old paint?
It gets contained and hauled out. We tarp and skirt the work area, collect the spent abrasive and coating debris, and dispose of it properly. Old equipment paint can carry materials you do not want washing into a storm drain, so containment is part of the job, not an add-on.
How fast can you get to a Yonkers yard?
Estimates within a couple of days and most jobs scheduled inside two weeks, faster off-season. We are based in Mount Vernon, ten minutes away, and (914) 295-0821 reaches the operator directly.
