Diamond-ground concrete surface ready for coating

Diamond Grinding

Diamond grinding mechanically works the concrete surface using tooling selected for the slab and the desired result. It can remove residue, address local surface defects or prepare concrete for a coating.

Tell us whether the goal is coating preparation or an exposed concrete finish. That choice affects tooling, passes, edge work and how existing repairs or aggregate will appear.

This is part of our surface preparation & grinding service. Related work: concrete grinding, dust-controlled grinding and shot blasting.

FAQ

Diamond grinding or shot blasting — which is better?

Diamond grinding abrades the surface and is well suited to flattening, removing thin coatings and producing lower profiles. Shot blasting propels steel shot at the surface and can profile large open areas quickly, producing a coarser texture. Some jobs use both — blasting the open floor and grinding edges and tight areas. The choice comes from the profile the product needs, the existing surface, and the building's constraints.

My garage is newer. Does it still need full preparation?

Yes. A newer slab is usually in better condition, but the surface of fresh concrete is closed and a coating will not bond into it as it is.

Grinding opens the surface so the system anchors into the slab rather than sitting on top of it.

What is concrete grinding?

Concrete grinding is a mechanical preparation process that removes contamination, levels uneven surfaces and creates the profile required for flooring installation and long-term adhesion performance.
