Custom Concrete Solutions was asked to come look at the floors of Smith College in North Hampton, MA. The previous contractors had finished half of the floor very nicely, however the other half appeared to have tape marks left over from a protective covering after they had densified the floors. The challenge was that the marred half of the floor could not be redone without creating inconsistency compared to the good half of the floor. The only solution was to grind and polish all of the floors.
CCS started with 40 grit diamonds, running HTC 800's and then up to 800 resins. There were many challenges so it took longer than expected but it was worth it in the end. Just for good measure the floors were re-densified at 400s with Retroplate and finished with 2 coats of LS Guard. These floors will last forever!
