Clean and chemicals. Anti-slip treatment. Grind. Replace. Then a quote, the works, and a separate retest.
Polish build-up, the wrong detergent, a film from a “shine” product, or a contaminant the tester noted. If the substrate already has the texture the area needs, the first move is the cleaning regime — not a coating.
A chemical etch on a mineral floor, or a treatment system on resilient sheet. Used when the surface is sound and the gap is one or two classes, not when the tile is glass-smooth and the area is a kitchen.
Mechanical texture on concrete or stone that will not hold a treatment, or where a film keeps coming back. It changes the floor you already have. It is not a polish.
When the installed material cannot reach the handbook class, or when every treatment would be a short life. New material is specified to the target P class. That is a flooring job, not a wipe-on.
We will not send a menu of brand names and ask you to pick. The report plus the area type plus the photos is enough to name a path in most cases. If it is not, we will say what we still need — a closer photo, the substrate, whether the tester wet the floor or found residue.
Premier Restorations quotes the path and carries out the works across Australia. After the works, a retest is a separate visit and a separate record. We do not roll the retest into the works report and call the job “compliant”.
