Polished Concrete – Warehouse Office, Northridge
Jevan Araujo, owner, IT’S SO CLEAN CSLB #1071609
Fifteen thousand square feet of warehouse office space in Northridge, polished over twenty working days once the old floor coverings were off.
| Location | Northridge, CA |
|---|---|
| Surface area | 15,000 sqft |
| Building | Commercial Warehouse Office |
| Working area | Entire office floor |
| Duration | 20 Working Days |
| Scope | Floor Covering Removal and Full Polished Concrete |
What we walked into
Carpet and tile coming up across the whole office area, with the tack strips still fixed along the wall lines and black adhesive left behind in streaks and pools across the slab.
What we did
Pulled the remaining covering and ground the adhesive off before touching the slab itself, then polished the concrete underneath. Machines ran on dust extraction throughout because the offices, doors and glazing were already in.
What made it difficult
Adhesive is the awkward part. It loads up the tooling and comes off at different rates depending on how thick it was laid, so the first passes are slow and have to be checked constantly rather than run at a steady rate.
The result
A clean, even floor through the whole office area with the control joints reading as straight lines and no trace of the adhesive left in the surface.
