Adhesive removal

Adhesive removal from concrete floors

Over time, old adhesives from carpets, vinyl, or tiles can harden and cling stubbornly to the concrete, making them difficult to strip away without specialist equipment. Professional removal typically involves mechanical grinding, shot blasting, or scraping to break down and lift the residue, leaving a smooth, contaminant-free surface. This ensures new floor coverings bond effectively and prevents future issues such as lifting, bubbling, or uneven finishes.
