Active Floor Prep

Dust-Free Floor Preparation Specialists

“Dust-free” surface preparation of concrete floors, prior to the application of coatings or screeds should now be the industry standard.  With modern dust extraction systems, with pulse filter cleaning, there is no need for any contamination of dust in the working environment. Active Floor Prep uses the most modern dust extraction systems available connected to our shot blasters, scabblers, and diamond grinders.

The quickest and most economical concrete preparation is by fully enclosed, dust-free shot-blasting.  By adjusting the speed of travel and size of shot the correct profile of the concrete for most types of coatings, paints and screed can be achieved.

Scabblers using Tungsten Carbide Tipped flails or picks can give a coarser profile suitable for epoxy screeds and pumped  screeds, by giving a much coarser texture and better mechanical key.

Diamond Grinders can be used in their own right to smooth out irregularities or for toning down the ridges caused by scabbling.

 As you can now see, a combination of all systems can be or may have to be used for any one floor.  To facilitate this all three machines are carried to site. Coupled with our own on board generator, Active Floor Prep should be able to tackle most problem floors for you.
