concrete grinding
Concrete is one of the most versatile products ever created and is utilised heavily as both a primary floor surface and as the main substrate for the application of flooring compounds. Failing to prepare this substrate correctly can quickly result in the arising of discrepancies, derailing the project's planned aesthetic. Sense Constructions carries high quality, highly-effective commercial floor preparation equipment to ensure that flooring surfaces are clean and level. This coupled with our high level of expertise guarantees that the final substrate is free of any contamination and foreign bodies.
Concrete grinding services are designed to provide different levels of finishes to a concrete slab. Whether you’re preparing the slab for epoxy coatings, toppings or polishing.
The most popular method employed by us is diamond concrete grinding. This surface preparation technique is highly effective in removing existing floor coatings, dirt, membranes and adhesives. By removing imperfections, the substrate opens, optimising the bonding of any concrete overlays, toppings, epoxy coatings or other floor finishes.
Concrete grinders are also the ideal choice for repairing imperfections in concrete floors, slabs and walkways; gently evening out any imperfections to leave a smooth finish.
All of Sense Construction's diamond grinders are coupled with the latest heavy duty industrial vacuuming equipment to ensure the removal of airborne dust, maintaining optimal workplace health and safety.

concrete polishing
DIAMOND POLISH
Diamond polishing is the most refined concrete floor finish. We specialise in using premium concrete densifiers and impregnating sealers to produce a stone like finish.
GRIND AND SEAL
This method involves grinding the concrete slab to the specified aggregate exposure and sealing the slab by applying a clear resin top coat. Desired finishes are available in matt, satin or gloss and can be water or solvent based acrylic, polyurethane or epoxy.

industrial epoxy floors
Designed to be applied over an existing concrete slab, epoxy resin produces a durable floor coating that protects the slab from oil, acid and solvent spills and ensures longevity against high foot traffic and fork lift tracks.
Epoxy floors come with a range of benefits, including;
Epoxy floors come with a range of benefits, including;
- ease of cleaning and maintaince
- aesthetic appeal and;
- protection against bacteria, increase hygiene levels
polyurethane floors
This type of floor topping is ideal for areas that require a non-slip, heavy duty, durable floor.
With added benefits such as;
specifically areas used for food and beverage processing, commercial kitchens, cool rooms and freezers.
With added benefits such as;
- chemical resistance to acid, caustics, fats and cleaning solutions
- temperature resistance in the range of -20C to 120C
- odourless and;
- available in a range of colours

floor levelling
If an absolutely flat sub floor is required a floor levelling compound may need to be used to ensure the substrate is levelled and any undulations removed. Preparation for floor levelling begins by employing a laser survey of the designated area, marking out all highs and lows. If necessary, we grind to remove all high spots and to remove any oils, glue or other foreign materials that have been previously applied. Once the substrate is clean and free of contaminants, we use primer coatings over the porous concrete to initiate chemical bonding for long term adhesion.
Once primed, we use a cement based self levelling compound to rectify the concrete surface and even the substrate. This enables us to level a floor, build up a floor or match an existing surface so that the substrate can be topped with vinyl, carpet or timber flooring options.
