About Us
Blast Your Problems Away…
Your Specialist Partner in Complex Water Jetting and Remediation
Aqua Prep provides high-performance water jetting solutions that support safer, cleaner and more predictable outcomes on industrial, civil and infrastructure projects. When concrete fails, or coatings must be removed, or assets require precise intervention, we deliver the technical capability needed to resolve issues efficiently and without compromise.
We specialise in hydro demolition, hydro scabbling, coating removal, cold cutting, tank cleaning and onsite water treatment. Our approach is grounded in applying the right methodology for each situation, using controlled, high-pressure water jetting as a cleaner, safer and more accurate alternative to traditional mechanical methods
“We do more than water jet we provide solutions to complex problems with ease. Water jetting is merely how we do this.”

Your Specialist Partner in Complex Water Jetting and Remediation
Aqua Prep was established in 2012 by Managing Director Peter Bradford, who identified a critical gap in asset remediation: when something went wrong onsite, there was rarely a specialist capable of resolving the issue without creating additional damage, risk or delay.
Aqua Prep was created to fill that need. Today, we operate as a trusted partner to engineers, contractors and asset owners, combining innovation with practical, solutions-driven thinking. The business has grown to a team of more than 55 highly trained professionals, united by one purpose: supporting clients to overcome operational challenges and achieve safer, cleaner project outcomes across Australia.
“I like to present Aqua Prep to engineers as their best friend as we provide solutions to their problems or fix mistakes they encounter."
