High-strength polished and polished concreteTopping - dry hardenerTerrazzo decorative flooringCeramic tilesHigh-performance polymer floors
SurfaceDulling of the original color and gloss in places of heavy use Possible scratching of the polished surface (studded tires)Significant deterioration of aesthetic qualities, surface abrasion

Dusting at abrasion of the top layer of the membrane-forming agent when exposed to moisture as a result of alkaline-silicate reactions

Loss of gloss in places of intensive use, possible particles flying outFractured joints, chips and cracksDestruction of the top decorative layer
CoveragePossible minor damage due to very heavy objects falling down

Failure of the top layer Peeling of the hardened layer

When there is a difference in the characteristics of the topping and concrete:

from dynamic loads during operation from alternating temperatures and cyclic loads Risk of delamination from the concrete substrate

With productive grinding equipment, we perform a range of tasks:

  • Rough sanding - preparation of the substrate for the subsequent installation of the finish coating.
  • Boucharding - giving the surface a rough texture and removing a large layer of concrete to level the geometry of the floor.
  • Removal of old coatings, dismantling of all types of filler coatings using special attachments on grinding equipment.
  • Polishing - treating a concrete or stone surface to the shine you want.

The following information is required in order to provide you with a quotation for a range of surface treatment and sanding services:

  • Photos and videos of the area of the work being done;
  • Information on the current floor covering in the work area and the need to remove it;
  • Approximate area of work;
  • Facility Address.

This data will help us provide you with the most accurate and efficient estimate of the cost and timing of the work.
