Mechanical Surface Preparation
Ancrstone specializes in methodologies for abrading concrete to remove latency, and create the level of surface texture required for the new floor finish type. For renovation projects, the process can include removal of various types of glues, adhesives and mastics, some requiring specialized equipment and techniques to
remove completely. We have invested in performance equipment to offer a full range of surface preparation services, including:

- Shot-Blasting
- Grinding
- Scarifying
Repair and Restoration
As part of the surface preparation process, Ancrstone's crew are adept at techniques for dealing with common defects in concrete surfaces including crack and joint treatments, patching of damaged and deteriorated areas, contamination removal, and the use of primers/sealers to stabilize and harden the concrete surface.
