Floor Stripping Preparation Tips

If you are renovating an entire house or just updating a room, here are a few simple things you can do to help minimize dust and damage in your home or place of business.

• Give notice to neighbours that there will be noise disturbance while the work is completed.
• Ensure all external windows and doors can be unlocked and opened to allow proper ventilation.
• Cupboards should be emptied to prevent dust contamination.
• Disposable plastic drop sheets are ideal for covering kitchen bench tops. Tape down the edges to seal all gaps.
• Prevent dust from spreading by hanging drop sheets in doorways.
• Use drop sheets and tape to seal electrical equipment that cannot be removed.
• Draw blinds and wrap in drop sheets.
• Cover or remove wall pictures and mirrors.
• Where possible, remove items such as dishwashers, fridges and washing machines.

Dust control Equipment and extractions are used during Grinding, however a challenge still prevails during the Grinding process, and despite what anyone may tell you, completely dustless concrete grinding is not achievable.

Please advise prior to job commencement if you would like our representatives to complete any of these items on your behalf.
