Concrete Preparation Contractors London
Comprehensive Surface Preparation Specialists for Epoxy & Resin Flooring
Why Is Concrete Preparation Critical for Floor Coatings?
We prepare concrete floors across Greater London to ensure your epoxy flooring bonds properly and lasts. Without proper surface preparation, even the best coatings fail within months.
Our teams remove oil, laitance, and contamination using shot blasting and diamond grinding. This creates the clean, profiled surface essential for long-lasting warehouse flooring and industrial coatings.
We test every floor for moisture and adhesion before coating. London's specialist concrete preparation contractors since 2004.
Why Choose Our Preparation Services?
What Mechanical Preparation Methods Do We Use?
We use diamond grinding for light surface preparation across London sites. Our dust-free grinding removes laitance and minor contamination, ideal for thin-film coatings and surface priming.
Our shot blasting teams handle heavily contaminated industrial floors throughout the M25 corridor. This aggressive method removes old coatings, oil contamination, and creates the deep profile needed for heavy-duty systems.
We also provide scarifying and scabbling for the most challenging substrates. These methods tackle thick coatings, adhesive residues, and damaged concrete that grinding cannot address.
How Do We Handle Contamination Removal?
We treat oil-contaminated concrete across Greater London using degreasing and mechanical removal. Our teams identify contamination depth and apply the right treatment before any coating work begins.
Our concrete grinding and shot blasting removes old coatings, adhesives, and sealers completely. We strip floors back to bare concrete for proper adhesion of your new system.
We also treat chemical residues, efflorescence, and surface salts. Every floor is tested and neutralised before priming.
Professional Surface Preparation Guaranteed
What Testing Do We Perform Before Coating?
We test every floor for moisture before coating. Our calibrated equipment checks relative humidity to BS 8204 standards, ensuring your floor is ready for epoxy flooring application.
Our teams perform adhesion testing across London sites. Pull-off tests confirm the concrete is strong enough for coating, with all results documented in your project report.
We measure surface profile to match your coating system. Correct preparation ensures maximum bond strength for both thin-film and heavy-duty industrial floors.
What Areas Do We Cover?
Our concrete preparation teams cover all of Greater London and the M25 corridor. We provide rapid response across the Home Counties for warehouse flooring prep and industrial projects.
