Concrete Floor Grinding in Ann Arbor, MI
Concrete floor grinding uses industrial diamond tooling to cut down high spots, remove coatings, and flatten uneven slabs to a specified tolerance. It's prep work, not cosmetic work — you grind before you coat, polish, or resurface so the next layer bonds and performs correctly. We also grind floors that have developed trip-hazard lips at control joints or slab edges. The result is a flat, open concrete surface ready for whatever comes next.

When to Call
When You Need Concrete Floor Grinding
- Epoxy coating failed because the original floor wasn't properly prepared
- Slab has high spots that cause loaded carts to tip on the floor
- Old adhesive residue from tile removal needs to come off before recoating
- Control joint edge is raised a quarter inch and flagged as a trip hazard
How It Works
Our Process for Concrete Floor Grinding
- 1
Flatness Survey
We measure the floor with a straightedge or laser level and mark high spots, low spots, and coating areas that need full removal.
- 2
Tooling Selection
Diamond segment bond hardness gets matched to your concrete. Wrong tooling on hard or soft concrete wastes time and leaves a poor surface.
- 3
Grinding Passes
We work in overlapping passes, checking flatness as we go. Aggressive cuts come first, finish cuts last to hit the target profile.
- 4
Vacuum and Profile Check
HEPA vacuum equipment runs continuously. After grinding, we test surface profile with tape or profilometer before calling it done.
Ann Arbor Context
Why this matters in Ann Arbor
A lot of Ann Arbor commercial and institutional buildings had epoxy or VCT tile applied over concrete that was never properly ground or profiled. When those coatings fail, the floor needs proper grinding before anything new will stick.
Straight Talk
About pricing & scope
Cost is driven by square footage, how much material needs to come off, and what's on the floor — thick epoxy or mastic takes more passes and faster diamond wear than bare concrete.
