Concrete grinding and resurfacing flattens an uneven slab, strips old coatings and adhesives, and brings a rough or damaged surface back to clean concrete. It's the prep step behind every good polish or coating, and it's also a fix on its own for trip hazards and worn floors in Kamloops homes and businesses.
Grinding is the foundation of everything we do. It levels high spots, removes old paint, glue, and coatings, and opens the surface so whatever goes on next actually bonds. Sometimes a grind is all a floor needs to be usable and clean again.
Resurfacing goes a step further when a slab is rough, pitted, or patchy. We grind it down, repair the damage, and bring it back to a consistent surface ready to polish, coat, or just seal. It's a common first step on older Brock and North Shore slabs that have seen decades of use.
What's included
- Coating removal. Old paint, epoxy, mastic, and sealers come off with the right diamond tooling.
- Adhesive and glue grinding. Carpet and tile glue gets ground off cleanly so the slab is ready for what's next.
- Surface leveling. We grind down high spots and trip hazards for a flat, even floor.
- Profiling for bonding. We open the concrete to the right profile so coatings and overlays grip.
- Pit and spall repair. Damaged areas get filled and feathered into the surrounding slab.
- Dust-free operation. HEPA vacuum systems keep the silica dust contained the whole time.
When you need concrete grinding & resurfacing
Old flooring removed
After carpet or tile comes up, the leftover glue and ridges need grinding off.
A peeling coating
Failed paint or epoxy has to be ground off before anything new goes down.
An uneven slab
High spots and lips that catch feet or carts get leveled out.
Prepping to polish or coat
Every polish and coating starts with a proper grind. It's not optional if you want it to last.
Our process
- 1Assess the slab. We check what's on the floor and what's underneath, then quote it free.
- 2Contain the area. We protect surrounding spaces and set up dust extraction.
- 3Grind and strip. We remove coatings and adhesives and flatten the surface.
- 4Repair as needed. Pits, cracks, and spalls get filled to even things out.
- 5Ready for next step. We leave a clean, profiled slab ready to polish, coat, or seal.
