Floor preparation and grinding

Here's a breakdown of our floor prep and grinding services and why they are essential

1. Removal of Existing Flooring: If you have old or damaged flooring in place, we begin by removing it carefully. This step ensures a clean slate for your new flooring and allows us to assess the condition of the underlying subfloor.
2. Subfloor Inspection: Our experts conduct a thorough examination of the subfloor, checking for any issues such as cracks, unevenness or moisture problems. Addressing these issues is crucial to prevent future flooring problems.
3. Grinding and Leveling: In cases where the subfloor is uneven, our grinding and leveling process comes into play. We use specialised equipment to grind down high spots and level out any low areas, ensuring an even surface for your new flooring to adhere to.
4. Moisture Mitigation: High moisture levels in the subfloor can wreak havoc on your flooring. If we detect excessive moisture, we'll take steps to mitigate it, which may include the installation of moisture barriers or sealants.
5. Surface Preparation: Proper surface preparation is crucial for adhesion. We may roughen the subfloor to create a better bonding surface for adhesives and to remove any contaminants that could affect the quality of the installation.
6. Dust Control: We take dust control seriously. Our equipment is equipped with dust extraction systems to minimise airborne particles during the grinding process, ensuring a clean and safe work environment.
7. Adherence to Standards: Our floor preparation and grinding services adhere to industry standards and manufacturer recommendations, guaranteeing that your flooring will perform at its best.
