What is Floor Grinding?

Floor grinding is a specialised process involving concrete and diamond grinding to create smooth, even surfaces.

It is a common technique for preparing various surfaces, including concrete, asphalt, stone, and terrazzo floors.

The process of floor grinding smooths surfaces and removes imperfections, adhesives, coatings, and old sealants, leaving a clean and uniform finish.

Using specialised equipment with diamond-embedded discs, floor grinding ensures high precision and efficiency in surface levelling and restoration.

What Types of Floors Do We Grind?

We grind floors in various settings, including warehouses, factories, schools, shopping centres, multi-storey car parks, and aerospace hangars.

Each environment presents unique challenges that require specialised approaches. In warehouses and factories, durability and resistance to heavy machinery are key considerations. 

Schools and shopping centres demand durability and aesthetics to create a welcoming environment. Multi-storey car parks need slip-resistant surfaces to ensure vehicle and pedestrian safety. 

Aerospace hangars require high-performance coatings for protection against chemicals and aviation fuels.

Our tailored solutions cater to the specific needs of each setting, providing long-lasting, high-quality floors that meet both functional and aesthetic requirements.

What Equipment Do We Use for Floor Grinding?

We use state-of-the-art equipment, including machinery from top manufacturers, to perform diamond grinding and other floor-grinding tasks.

Our armoury of tools encompasses a variety of equipment tailored to specific needs. Each piece plays a crucial role in ensuring optimal results, from planetary grinders and shot blasters to scarifiers and dust extractors. 

Efficient and powerful, these machines can tackle even the toughest surfaces, enhancing productivity while maintaining precision.

 Our cutting-edge technologies streamline the grinding process and contribute to overall project quality and durability.

How Do We Ensure a High-Quality Floor Grinding Job?

We ensure a high-quality floor grinding job by creating smooth, even surfaces and employing powerful vacuums to maintain a clean working environment.

Our commitment to quality extends beyond surface-level care. One key technique we implement is thorough surface preparation before the grinding process begins. 

This step involves meticulously inspecting the area, removing existing coatings or debris, and addressing imperfections that may affect the final result.

We utilise cutting-edge equipment that allows for precise control over the grinding process. This ensures consistent depth and smoothness across the entire surface, resulting in a uniform finish that exceeds industry standards.

Our Process

Our floor grinding process involves meticulous preparation, advanced techniques, and a focus on achieving a flawless finish.

Step 1: Inspection and Assessment

The first step in our process is a thorough inspection and assessment of the surfaces, identifying contaminants and determining the best approach for grinding.

This crucial phase sets the foundation for the entire restoration process. By scrutinising the surfaces meticulously, we aim to uncover hidden issues that may compromise the project’s integrity.

Cracks, spalling, delamination, and discolouration are common problems we look for. The insights gained during this step guide us in selecting the appropriate tools and techniques for remediation. 

The assessment phase is non-negotiable, ensuring a successful outcome, whether addressing structural weaknesses or enhancing aesthetics.

Step 2: Preparing the Area for Floor Grinding

Preparing the area for floor grinding involves removing existing coatings and adhesives and ensuring the workspace meets safety standards.

Before the actual grinding process begins, the first step generally involves clearing the area of any furniture or obstacles that could obstruct the work. 

This is essential to create a spacious and accessible workspace for the grinding equipment to manoeuvre effectively.

Any debris or loose particles must be thoroughly cleaned and removed to prevent interference during grinding.

Proper ventilation and adequate lighting are crucial to maintaining a safe and comfortable working environment. 

Protective gear such as masks and goggles should be worn to safeguard against dust and debris generated during grinding.

Step 3: Floor Grinding Process

We employ diamond grinding and cross-hatching techniques to achieve smooth, even surfaces during the floor grinding process.

Diamond grinding involves the use of industrial-grade, diamond-infused tools that efficiently grind away imperfections on the surface. 

This method ensures precision and durability in the final finish. Cross-hatching, a technique where the grinding head moves in a crisscross pattern, further refines the surface by eliminating uneven patches or rough spots. 

The synergy between diamond grinding and cross-hatching results in a flawlessly polished surface that is aesthetically pleasing and functionally durable.

Step 4: Clean-up and Finishing Touches

After grinding, our clean-up process involves using powerful vacuums to remove dust and debris and applying finishing touches to ensure a hygienic surface.

Once the dust and debris are thoroughly vacuumed, the next step in the clean-up process is using specialised cleaning agents and equipment such as surface cleaners, scrubbers, and pressure washers. 

These tools help eliminate any remaining residue and ensure that the surface is clean and sanitised.

Additionally, inspection plays a crucial role in this stage, detecting missed spots and confirming that the surface is smooth and free from imperfections. 

This meticulous attention to detail guarantees that the final product is visually appealing and safe for its intended use.
