DIAMOND GRINDING
Diamond segmented grinding is a process utilized to properly prepare concrete substrates for the application of epoxy-based floor coating systems. Along with providing the required Concrete Surface Profile (CSP) diamond grinding can help with smoothing, removing minor irregularities, or removal of deteriorated near-surface concrete.
It is also effective in returning a slab to near new condition and extending its service life for years. If a concrete slab has been rained out, or otherwise failed due to unforeseen environmental or construction events, diamond grinding can assist with restoration to make it functional.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Diamond Grinding flatten out my wavy concrete floor?
Yes, it can greatly improve floor flatness provided the undulations are not severe. Typically, diamond grinding is not a concrete removal process so If the highs and lows are extreme a different approach such as concrete scarifying or shaving may be recommended.
In extreme cases the only alternative may be to use a self-leveling compound to flatten the floor.
