What is concrete grinding?
As a matter of fact, nowadays, concrete is made up of cement, dry sand, dry stone, and water. In order to create a different form of concrete of varied strengths, texture, and durability; these ingredients are mixed in different proportions.
Concrete surfaces are usually rough and need grinding with certain specific grinding equipment. Concrete grinding is a process used for smoothing the rough concrete surfaces for which an abrasive tool with diamond attachment is used which are meant for smoothening the rough surface of the concrete.
Concrete grinding, in its first step, apart from smoothening the rough concrete surfaces also helps remove any coatings, stains, or cracks on the concrete along with the uppermost layer of concrete as well.
Concrete grinding is done till desired stone is exposed or visible so that the hardeners may be applied to add strength to the concrete and then polished and produce an awesome shining and reflective look on the floor.
During the process of concrete grinding, deep cracks are also cleaned i.e. pressure washed to remove concrete chunks, rocks and dirt from the cracks and filled with epoxy material.
When renovating old concrete floors, concrete grinding helps remove all the old mastic and tile or vinyl glues, waterproofing membranes, or epoxy coatings from the existing concrete surface
