Concrete prep: the foundation for flawless commercial flooring

 
When it comes to commercial flooring, the foundation is everything. A poor surface leads to early failures, costly repairs, and an uneven finish. That’s why concrete prep isn’t just an extra step—it’s the most critical one. Whether you’re installing carpet, tile, luxury vinyl, or epoxy coatings, the condition of your concrete will determine the lifespan and quality of your flooring. We don’t cut corners. We make sure your concrete is smooth, strong, and ready to handle heavy foot traffic, machinery, and daily wear and tear.
 

Why concrete prep matters

 
moisture can lead to adhesive failure, bubbling, and an uneven surface. Poorly prepped floors will shift, buckle, or show visible seams over time. Here’s why proper concrete floor prep is non-negotiable:

  • Surface bonding: Adhesives need a clean, properly profiled surface to stick. Without it, flooring materials separate and fail prematurely.
  • Leveling and smoothness: Uneven surfaces create safety hazards and installation issues. Grinding and leveling ensure a seamless finish.
  • Moisture control: Excess moisture trapped in concrete can cause serious damage to certain flooring types. Testing and mitigation prevent future issues.
  • Durability: A well-prepared concrete floor supports the longevity of your investment, preventing costly do-overs.

At Mill Creek Carpet - Commercial, we take every precaution to get it right the first time. That means thorough inspection, proper grinding, moisture mitigation, and debris removal before installation even begins.
