Surface Preparation

The Key to Success!

Surface preparation is the vital difference between failure and success. Mechanical substrate cleaning and profiling ensures a contaminant free surface. It removes old adhesives, paints, curing agents or any form of coating which is not compatible and will effect adhesion of the floor covering or coating. The correct type of surface preparation and profile is very important and not all floor coverings or coatings require the same surface finish. Our work is carried out in accordance to specifications and Australian Standards.
