Concrete Grinding, Polishing, Densification, and Sealing

INCLUDED: Initial coarse mechanical grinding of the fully cured and prepared/leveled concrete surface (post-SLU application). Progressive mechanical grinding through a series of increasingly finer grits to achieve the specified level of aggregate exposure and desired surface sheen. Application of a chemical densifier (e.g., lithium or sodium silicate) to harden the concrete and improve abrasion resistance. Further fine grinding/polishing passes. Application of a high-performance, clear concrete sealer or coating (e.g., penetrating sealer, clear epoxy, or urethane topcoat) to provide stain resistance, easy maintenance, and the owner's desired sheen. Treatment and filling of all existing control and expansion joints with appropriate flexible fillers. Strict dust containment, waste collection, and disposal specific to polishing operations. Use of commercial-grade, low-VOC materials. Material procurement. EXCLUDED: Substrate assessment, patching, initial grinding for repair, or application of self-leveling underlayment. General site cleanup not directly related to polishing dust/debris. Non-surface structural repairs.
