Frequently Asked Questions

Concrete floor grinding uses diamond-tipped machinery to flatten, clean, and profile a concrete slab. It's used to level uneven surfaces, remove coatings and adhesive, and prepare concrete for polishing, epoxy, or other floor finishes. We provide concrete floor grinding across the Gold Coast, Brisbane, and Northern Rivers.

Honing produces a smooth, matte-to-satin finish without the high gloss of a full mechanical polish. It's popular for new builds, commercial fitouts, and modern renovations where you want the look of polished concrete without the reflective sheen. We also offer full polished finishes with varying levels of aggregate exposure — from cream polish through to full stone reveal.

Both. We go further than tile-only removal — mechanically removing adhesive residue until the slab is genuinely clean. That's the difference between a surface that's “done” and one that's actually ready for your next finish. Most concrete grinders don't offer this. We do.

Coating failures are almost always caused by poor surface prep. Epoxy applied over laitance, oil, adhesive, or a poorly profiled surface will delaminate — sometimes within weeks. Recoating after failure costs 2–3x the original job. Proper prep is always cheaper.

Standard grinding produces significant silica dust. We use portable industrial vacuum extraction connected directly to our grinding machinery, capturing dust at the source. This keeps the site cleaner, protects everyone's health, and makes us suitable for occupied or partially occupied buildings — including apartments, retail tenancies, and healthcare facilities.

We service the Gold Coast, Brisbane, and Northern Rivers. This covers residential, commercial, and industrial projects across the full corridor from Brisbane CBD to Byron Bay and surrounding areas — including Tweed Heads, Murwillumbah, Lismore, Ballina, and all suburbs in between.

Most residential rooms (20–40 sqm) take one day. Larger residential jobs take two to three days. Commercial and industrial floors vary depending on the area — we'll confirm timing in your quote so you can plan around it.

Absolutely. We work in homes across the Gold Coast, Brisbane, and Northern Rivers. Living rooms, kitchens, garages, outdoor areas — if it's a concrete slab, we can grind, polish, or seal it. Our dust-free process means you can stay in the house while we work.

We diamond grind or scarify concrete to the Concrete Surface Profile (CSP) specified by your coating system. This creates the mechanical key needed for proper adhesion. We also remove existing coatings, oil, and other contaminants that prevent bonding.

Fill out our online quote form with your project details — area, location, what finish you need — and we'll come back to you with a quote, usually same day. For larger or complex jobs, we'll arrange a site visit first.

We offer slab sawing (flat cuts through floor slabs), wall sawing (vertical cuts through walls and panels), and core drilling (circular penetrations for pipes, conduits and services). We use diamond-tipped blades and bits for clean, precise cuts in reinforced and unreinforced concrete.

Yes. Our diamond cutting equipment handles both reinforced and unreinforced concrete. We cut through rebar, mesh, and post-tension cables with precision. For post-tensioned slabs, we use GPR scanning to locate cables before cutting.
