Concrete Prep
Proper concrete preparation is the most critical aspect of any concrete coating project. Southeast Concrete Solutions, LLC utilizes only the best diamond grinders and vacuums in the industry. This equipment, combined with the knowledge and attention to detail of our installation team, ensures that when we install a floor for your, it will stand the test of time.
No matter what type of floor coating you choose to have installed, it is only as good as the concrete that it is being placed on. Many contractors cut corners by pressure washing and acid etching your existing concrete. Other contractors use bonding agents that are added to the coating material. None of these methods are satisfactory, and all will lead to a coating failure at some point. The primary reason that other contractors choose these methods is because of the high cost associated with the proper prep equipment.
It doesn't take long on an internet search to discover the preferred method for any epoxy based flooring system - diamond grinding. This is the only way to ensure that the substate that the coating is being applied to is properly prepared to accept that coating. SCS utilizes Husqvarna diamond grinders and Ermator dust collection units. Our grinders weigh between 470 lbs and 950 lbs. These are not the same grinders that you can go to a rental shop and rent. These machines are made specifically to prep and polish concrete and to remove coatings. After proper preparation, your concrete surface will appear white and have the feel of 60 grit sandpaper. This ensures that the coating will penetrate the concrete and that the bond will last. We are a resurfacing contractor that specializes in concrete prep work. We fully understand that the durability and performance of our coatings directly depends on the quality of our prep work. We have made large investments in our prep equipment – they are essential in the success of our coating installations. The combination of the right equipment paired with a team of skilled and knowledgeable installers means that you can have confidence in the end result. You are making an investment in epoxy floor coatings and polished concrete. You owe it to yourself to make sure that the contractor you hire has made the proper investments in the right equipment.
