Step 1: Grinding the Floor
The first phase of the grind and seal process involves the use of large, industrial-grade concrete floor grinders. These powerful machines, equipped with high-performance diamond grinding pads, meticulously prepare your concrete surface. To ensure a dust-free experience, the grinders are connected to robust 350 CFM commercial vacuums, effectively capturing debris and keeping your environment clean.
Every inch of your floor—including those often-overlooked edges—will be ground down to achieve a smooth and uniform surface. This essential step also allows for any necessary repairs to be made, ensuring your floor is not only beautiful but structurally sound.
Step 2: Staining or Sealing
Once the grinding is complete, homeowners have two appealing options for the finish.
-
Staining: For those looking to add a touch of color and personality, we can apply high-quality stains that penetrate deeply into the concrete, enhancing its natural beauty and character. Staining opens up a world of design possibilities, allowing you to choose from a wide palette of hues.
-
Clear Epoxy and Polyurethane Topcoat: If a sleek, modern look is more your style, we can leave the floor in its pristine, uncolored state and apply a layer of 100% clear epoxy. This not only provides a glossy finish but also acts as a protective barrier against stains and damage. Following the epoxy application, we lightly sand the surface to ensure optimal adhesion before topcoating it with a high-wear polyurethane. This final touch offers exceptional durability, making your floor resistant to scratches and everyday wear.
The Benefits
The grind and seal process transforms your concrete floor into a functional and aesthetically pleasing asset. The combination of grinding and sealing ensures a long-lasting finish, reducing maintenance and enhancing the overall value of your home.
Whether you prefer a vibrant stained look or a sleek, glossy finish, the grind and seal process offers versatility and durability, making it an excellent choice for any homeowner looking to upgrade their space.
