Are you seeking a professional concrete grinding company to grind and prep your old concrete floor? Are you based in Rhode Island? Look no further, your answer is Concrete Reflections Inc., one of the nation's leaders in concrete grinding and polishing.

For any commercial facility that is under going new flooring, grinding and floor prep is a must. Vinyl, carpet, wood or coatings usually cover older concrete floors, and this must be removed before a new floor finished is installed, if not the new flooring system will fail in a short amount of time.

So, what does it mean to have an old concrete floor prepped and grinded? What is the process? Here are the answers…

Old concrete floor foundations are almost always covered with at least one layer of a flooring system and the adhesives used to secure it to the concrete. In order to remove these layers of old flooring, grinding technology that has always been applied to marble, granite and wood is also applied to concrete. Having a concrete floor grinded means taking a existing concrete slab floor and grinding it down with polishing machines and grit pads through a calculated process and resulting in a floor surface that is ready for the installation of a final floor system such as VCT, carpet, hardwood or polished concrete.

If you are a contractor, builder or architect in the Rhode Island area and are in need of grinding your concrete flooring the process is quite easy. A Concrete Reflections Inc. crew based in the New England area will arrive on site once scheduled and conduct the process of grinding and floor prep by using aggressive grit diamonds on the bottom of a grinding machine. The grit of the diamonds depends on the floor and the type of coatings that need to be removed. The grinding will cut through coatings, glue, mastic, mortar and old layers of concrete to expose virgin concrete. Once the virgin concrete is exposed the floor is then ready for further polishing, or the desired final floor finish.
