The benefits of concrete floors are quite clear, especially in commercial and industrial spaces. But, over the years, heavy foot and vehicle traffic, combined with the knocks, bumps and scrapes that occur on the worksite, will damage your concrete slabs. And a damaged concrete surface can be dangerous, not to mention unattractive. Thankfully you don’t need to pay for a new floor to be laid with our concrete grinding services!

Concrete grinding and polishing is the first step in preparing concrete floors for new finishes. If you’re remodelling your home or business and would like to lay down tiles or wooden floorboards, then concrete grinding and polishing will give you a smooth and level base to work with.
However, don’t be lulled into thinking that grinding is a lesser finish. On the contrary, it can create stylish and hard-wearing concrete floors all on its own.
Older concrete is often riddled with pockmarks, chips, scrapes, stains and fading; these may be the result of years of poor maintenance combined with natural on-site wear and tear. Grinding away this top layer leaves you with a smooth and blemish-free substrate surface.
Left as is, your new concrete surface will be highly durable and is largely resistant to stains, mould and odours. However, as Australia’s only full-service concrete specialists, we also have a range of decorative and protective coatings to bolster the benefits of your newly buffed concrete floors.
A cracked and chipped concrete floor is only liable to get worse. Concrete grinding removes imperfections, improving durability and increasing lifespan.
A newly ground concrete floor is extremely durable and can withstand the pressure of high foot and vehicle traffic, making it ideal for industrial and warehouse environments.
Concrete grinding isn’t as labour intensive as other concrete floor finishes. Needing only a simple seal to finish it off, grinding is an affordable solution for large concrete areas.
The simplicity of the process and the quality of the result makes concrete grinding a great solution for residential, commercial and industrial spaces alike.
After the concrete grinding is complete, you can choose to seal it (with a grind and seal) or add decorative coatings.

Polished concrete is more labour intensive, involving more steps. During concrete polishing, the existing slab is polished using finer grits of diamond abrasives until the floor reaches the level of shine desired.
Concrete grinding involves fewer steps. Often, we need only grind the floor once and apply a high-performance sealer to look similar to polished concrete.
Suited to both indoor and outdoor settings, concrete grinding is the best service for commercial industries such as:
