What Our Clients Say
Darren is very easy to deal with and him and his team always complete a fantastic job. He has always been on schedule for his bookings if not even earlier than booked date. Very helpful that they leave a clean site too. Highly recommend!
The best in the business. I have used Darren and his team for many years. I have tried other companies and all I can say is I wish I had discovered DS sooner.
Honed my concrete alfresco area. Did a great job, friendly and professional. I would definitely recommend them.
Great all round service, the job turned out better than we hoped. We had our full house done minus bedrooms after builder handover. The guys did well to protect our cabinets, gave some good advice on timing for painting inside prior and after flooring work to protect walls and get best end results. Would highly recommend.
Two things for noting, I’ve not selected well priced but this is due to me not knowing what the standard is so I can’t comment. Also time at job toke a couple of days longer than first thought, no complaint for this due to the great end result but worth keeping in mind if you book back to back trades.
Would use again. Thanks guys
These guys are great. I’m a concreter and the communication was fantastic and so easy to deal with. Hard to come by good, reliable people these days. The job turned out unreal. Sensational service & the job quality is unmatched. Will be using you guys every time. Thanks heaps 🙏🏼

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Is Floor Preparation Necessary?
Skipping proper floor preparation can lead to uneven flooring and long-term failures. Our expert grinding and levelling process ensures a smooth, structurally sound surface for any flooring type.
Can’t My Flooring Contractor Do The Preparation?
Many flooring contractors lack the specialised equipment and expertise needed for professional floor preparation. At DS Grinding, we use industry-grade machinery to remove old adhesives, coatings and imperfections, ensuring the best possible foundation for your new floor.
How Long Does Floor Preparation Take?
Most projects can be completed in a day or two, depending on the size and condition of the surface. We work efficiently to minimise downtime and keep your project on schedule. Once we have a grasp on the scope of your project, we will provide a more specific completion timeline.
What Types of Flooring Require Preparation?
Proper preparation is essential for all flooring types, including polished concrete, timber, vinyl, tile, epoxy coatings and carpet installations. Without it, floors can lift, warp or fail to adhere properly.
Will Floor Preparation Create A Lot of Dust?
We use advanced dust extraction systems to keep the process clean and mess-free, ensuring minimal disruption to your space. Due to the nature of floor preparation, there will always be some dust, but we strive to minimise it as much as possible.
