Thinset, Glue & Mastic Removal in Sacramento

The old floor is gone, but the slab is a mess. We grind, scrape and level it so the new floor goes down flat.

No Change Orders · Licensed & Insured · Same Week Scheduling

New floors fail when the slab under them isn't ready. Leftover thinset makes tile rock. Old glue keeps LVP from sitting flat. High spots crack grout. We clean the slab down to concrete, grind the bumps and leave a surface your installer will be happy to see.

A Flat Slab Is the Whole Game.

Most crews pull the floor and leave the residue for the installer. We finish the job. Thinset, mortar beds, carpet glue, hardwood adhesive and mastic come up, and we grind the concrete so it's ready.

Haul away is part of every job, debris and dust included.

FAQ

Common questions.

Why do I need to remove thinset before new flooring?

Leftover thinset leaves ridges and bumps. LVP and laminate can click and flex over them, and new tile can crack. A flat slab avoids all of that.

Can you remove glue from concrete?

Yes. Carpet glue, hardwood adhesive and vinyl glue all come off so the new floor bonds right.

Do you handle black mastic?

Older black cutback mastic can contain asbestos. We don't do abatement. If testing comes back positive, we pause and coordinate with a licensed abatement contractor, then handle removal and prep after clearance.

Do you level floors too?

Yes. After removal we grind, patch and level so the slab is ready for install.

Do you haul away the debris?

Yes. Haul away is part of every job.

Can you install the new floor after?

Yes. We install LVP, hardwood, tile, carpet and laminate. Or hand the slab to your own installer. Your call.
