Before: Damaged and Eroded Concrete
After: Concrete Grinding and Polishing Restores the Concrete
Even the worst floors can be transformed with a concrete grinding and polishing process. They can be made new again; and the best part… It is affordable!
Examples of How Concrete Grinding and Polishing can Transform Floors:
#1 Dusty Floors: They can cause cleanability issues for any owner, but the process of polishing concrete floors seals the surface from stubborn dust reducing maintenance and headaches. In addition to sealing the dust, the surface is refined to a smooth surface that mops and brooms can pass over with ease.
#2 Bumpy Floors: This can be a forklift drivers’ nightmare. When the floor is old and deteriorated, it is not uncommon that there are joint problems, spalls, pitting, and other large divots that cause a floor to be difficult to pass over with a forklift or other machinery… And maintenance is nearly impossible. Through the concrete grinding process, these areas can be ground down and restored to a smooth surface. Where repairs are needed, those are done prior to the concrete grinding and polishing process to ensure a smooth concrete floor.
#3 Dirty Floors: Forklift tire marks, stains, and grime can be unsightly to a building owner or facilities manager. Keeping up the appearance of a concrete floor is difficult and nearly impossible; however, with a polished concrete floor, you won’t have to worry about the floor being dirty. As long as the simple maintenance plan is followed, tire marks, stains, debris and grime are easily recovered and removed keeping this flooring looking great.
#4 Carpet, VCT, or Epoxy Floors: When removing dingy or ruined VCT, Carpet, or Epoxy look to the concrete beneath it – it can be restored. Instead of replacing these floor coverings grind and polish the concrete beneath them. You’d be amazed at the possibilities available with concrete restoration!
With concrete grinding and polishing, concrete floors are restored to a flooring that is not only beautiful and full of character, but that is worth the investment as it may last you forever!
