ICRI Concrete Surface Preparation in SunTrust Park

A profiled, contaminant-free concrete base that allows coatings to bond, cutting delamination risk and reducing downtime.

ICRI-Verified Profile Checks With Documentation
Documented profile levels and verification reports included with every estimate and readiness check.
Multi-Stage Diamond Grinding For Pore Opening
Staged diamond grinding opens pores, removes laitance, and prepares concrete for reliable coating adhesion.
Off-Season Scheduling To Reduce Downtime
Larger projects scheduled during off-season windows to limit disruption to events and venue operations.

What We Do

Concrete surface preparation that helps property managers achieve consistent coating adhesion

Covering staged diamond grinding, contaminant cleaning, crack repair, and ICRI profile verification.

Concrete Grinding
When you need a consistent surface profile before coatings. Use diamond grinding to remove high spots and old coatings and open pores for adhesion.

Concrete Crack Repair
Targeted epoxy fillers and sealants to stabilise cracks and prepare the surface for overlays and coatings.
Surface Cleaning & Profiling
Debris removal, degrease, and multi-stage profiling to achieve a consistent ICRI-style surface for adhesion.

Why Marietta Epoxy Flooring

ICRI-style profiling with itemized specification-led estimates

When surface prep is incomplete, coatings delaminate and cause rework, safety risks, and event disruption; the cards below explain common causes.

Common Challenges

Poor prep causes coating delamination
Insufficient grinding or retained contaminants prevents bond. That leads to lifting coatings, repeated repairs, and disrupted venue schedules.
High humidity and grease weaken adhesion
Commercial kitchens and back-of-house areas face humidity and oils. Without degrease and pore opening, coatings fail prematurely under heavy use.
Freeze-thaw cycles damage exterior slabs
Exterior concourses exposed to freeze-thaw develop cracks and spalling that must be repaired and profiled to avoid coating failure.

How We Help

ICRI-compliant profile verification and reports
We document required profile level and record the achieved ICRI/CSP profile on estimates and verification reports for coating readiness.
Staged diamond grinding for reliable adhesion
Multi-stage diamond grinding removes laitance, opens pores, and creates a consistent surface profile for predictable coating performance.
Targeted crack repair and stabilization
Local crack repair uses epoxy fillers and sealants to stabilize fissures, preventing reflective cracking and adhesion loss under traffic.
Reduced downtime with planned scheduling
Off-season and evening windows reduce venue disruption; typical back-of-house zones often restored within 24–48 hours of prep work.
Itemized estimates with material and cure specs
Quotes list grinding stages, filler types, layer thickness, and cure times so facilities teams can plan coatings and events precisely.

Who We Help

Facility teams, venue managers, and hospitality operators managing high-traffic spaces

We work with teams that need documented prep, minimal downtime, and surfaces ready for demanding coatings.

Facility managers at sports venue concourses
Facility managers at SunTrust Park scheduling maintenance around events and needing documented prep to prevent surface failures.
Hospitality and restaurant operators in venue spaces
Back-of-house kitchens and bars requiring degrease, pore opening, and slip-resistant topcoat readiness for continuous service.
Retail and service operators in park precincts
Retail shops and service areas that need even adhesion for decorative flakes and durable topcoats with minimal closure time.

How We Work

How Concrete Surface Preparation Works

A simple, specification-led sequence: assess, prepare to standard, then verify readiness for coatings.

Schedule assessment
We visit to inspect concrete, identify contaminants and cracks, record access windows, and specify target ICRI/CSP profile for coatings.
Execute surface prep
Perform staged diamond grinding, degrease, debris removal, and crack repair using specified fillers to achieve the documented profile.
Verify profile & handover
Measure and document the achieved profile, provide a readiness report, and schedule follow-up coating work or final curing inspection.

About This Service

About this Service

Concrete surface preparation at SunTrust Park covers hospitality back-of-house areas, retail shops and service corridors where high foot traffic and aggressive cleaning regimes determine material choice. The scope includes staged diamond grinding to the specified CSP, grease and oil removal, targeted crack repair, and profile verification. This service fits venue operations that need durable, easy-to-clean floors with controlled downtime.

Large venue work is often scheduled in off-season or overnight windows to reduce impact on events. Commercial kitchens and bar areas require stricter degreasing and a cleanliness acceptance before coating; proposals therefore document primer selection, layer thickness, and cure schedules tailored to high-moisture, high-cleaning environments. Slip-resistant textures are often specified for hospitality zones and noted in prep contracts so the substrate matches the chosen topcoat system.

Deliverables include a documented surface profile, repaired cracks sized for traffic and kitchen loads, and a readiness checklist that lists any moisture findings or access constraints that could change the installation timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about prepping concrete for coatings at SunTrust Park

Answers cover risks, timing, profile standards, and venue coordination.

Small cracks let moisture penetrate, widen, and cause coating failure. Repair later often requires full-area rework and can cost several times more than early repair.

Delays increase the chance of delamination, event cancellations, and emergency repairs. Unplanned fixes often add 20–30% to project costs and disrupt schedules.

Yes. Coordinate with facility management for access, safety plans, and off-season or after-hours windows to avoid event conflicts and ensure permit compliance.

Profile needs vary by coating. We identify the ICRI/CSP target for your system, measure the achieved level, and document it on the estimate for approval.

Typical back-of-house zones (500–1,000 sq ft) take one day for grinding and repairs; cure windows for primers vary and are included in the schedule.

Epoxy can be made slip-resistant with aggregate or textured topcoats. We specify slip-resistant options for kitchens, bars, and high-traffic hospitality areas.
