El Dorado Sandblasting

Went here for a powder coat quote. The guys that helped me were great, they were friendly, extremely knowledgeable, even gave me a free hat. Was really looking forward to working with them. But geez the quote they gave me was literally double the amount of two other quotes I got. I had to go with a different company, which did a fine job, and it was an apples to apples comparison in terms of the process, primer, material, color etc. It was about a $ 1200 job (that was the quote I went with anyway), maybe thats just too small or maybe they were just really busy? Would love to go back but I dont think I can afford it…

FABULOUS Powder Coating, even for someone as «picky» as I
We recently moved into a small apartment and needed a very specific sized dinette set. We looked at literally 100’s of tables and chairs and could find nothing that matched our needs, which is small enough, able to seat at the minimum 4 people and maybe 6 people, and «white».
We finally gave up and decided we would have to go with size and take whatever color we could get. We found our table at IKEA, metal and black. They advertise it as their GRANA dining room table and chairs.
After we got the table and chairs home from IKEA ($ 179.00), we left it in our car overnight to be put together the next day. After sleeping on it, we decided to contact someone to powder coat the set in white. Then, we would have our «dream» dinette set.
My husband called around and got estimates and some input from the professionals in this field. We chose El Dorado Sandblasting because Bob seemed to be the most thorough in his explanation of what needed to be done. His estimate was not the highest, nor was it the lowest of those companies we talked to.
We took the table and chairs to Bob that afternoon (a Friday). He gave me several «white» choices (samples) to bring home and think about over the weekend, as «white» is not a single choice. Monday, I called Bob with my «white» choice and they went to work on our set. We had hoped to have the set back by the following Friday as we were having our first visitors to our new place that weekend. The following Wednesday, Bob called and said the set was ready. Wow, Wow, Wow, FAST, FAST, FAST.
We went and picked the setup, still in pieces (not put together yet). We were impressed with how thorough a job they had done, right down to all the screw heads. We brought the unit home, put it together, and realized what a beautiful job Bob had done with this set.
Our final bill was $ 385.00, which included taking the set down to the steel, priming in white, and powder coating in white. They took the drab, black set and made it absolutely beautiful. We could not be happier. It was worth every penny!
