Client and Facility Overview
Our client operates a large industrial facility that requires meticulous attention to its infrastructure to ensure smooth operations. This facility is designed to handle high-traffic and heavy-duty activities, necessitating durable and well-maintained flooring solutions.
Requested Maintenance
The client required concrete polishing services to improve the durability and aesthetics of their floors prior to the arrival of a new tenant. The main objectives were to ensure the floor's longevity, ease of maintenance and improved resistance to stains, marks and moisture transmission.
Decision Driver and Timing
The primary driver was to get the facility ready for a new tenant. The client wanted a solution that could be completed quickly, provide an attractive finish, and withstand the demands of an industrial environment.
Scope of Work
- Surface Preparation: Grinding and filling all cracks using a specialized repair caulk to ensure a smooth and durable surface.
- Polishing Process: A 6-step diamond grinding process was employed for a comprehensive polish.
- Intermediate Strengthening: Application of a densifier to improve the concrete's PSI by 2,000, enhancing its durability and strength.
Notable Details

Durability and Aesthetics
The polished concrete is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also provides the strength required for heavy industrial activities, reducing overall maintenance and operational disruptions.
