Mastic Removal

Mastic can interfere with the bond and appearance of a new floor. The material and site history are reviewed before choosing mechanical removal and subsequent concrete preparation.

Tell us the age and type of the previous floor covering if known. Older or unidentified adhesive may need identification or testing before disturbance; the next finish also determines how clean the slab must be.

This is part of our surface preparation & grinding service. Related work: glue removal, coating & adhesive removal and diamond grinding.
