STEP 1<br />

STEP 2<br />

In any remodeling project, there is typically a glue or<br />

some type of sealer on the surface that needs to be<br />

removed to expose the underlying concrete floor. This<br />

project had layers of glue from the previous carpet. A<br />

wet removal process combines water to help in this<br />

removal along with a 1,000 lb concrete grinder with<br />

diamond tooling or scrappers.<br />

STEP 3<br />

Once the floor is cut open and cleaned we then work<br />

on filling in the joints in the concrete, as well as<br />

patching.<br />

STEP 4<br />

<strong>The</strong> grinding process now turns to honing and polishing<br />

to continue to refine the floors. A remodel project<br />

like this may take 6-9 passes with various segments<br />

of tooling to get the desired finish.<br />

All edges, corners, and detail work are done in a similar<br />

manner with handheld tooling.<br />
