Concrete Floor Stripping

Types of Floors We Strip

We strip and prepare all types of floors the Kitchener, London, Hamilton, and Brantford regions. These include offices, retail outlets, restaurants, health care facilities, warehouses, manufacturing plants, and homes.

To remove sealers from concrete, we use grinding, blasting, or sanding techniques. In many cases we use a chemical stripper to remove coatings because it causes less damage to the concrete surface. It also means less dust and noise. 

After Stripping

Once your floor has been thoroughly stripped, we use industrial floor grinders to remove high ridges and shave away any imperfections. Grinding also helps prepare your surface for maximum adhesion. Unlike many other companies, we use “Remote Grinders” for smoother concrete surfaces.

For concrete floors that are cracked, pitted, or scaling we offer concrete floor repairs. Its important to make sure your concrete surface is properly repaired, sealed, levelled, and free of all debris, grease, and other contaminants before any coatings are applied.
