Porch, Steps and Patio

Indoor/Outdoor Carpet
installed on project 15 yrs.
ago.  Underneath that was
 Astro-Turf carpet that had been  installed 20 years ago. Two completely different types of glue were used at a depth of up to 3/16" in most spots.

After all layers of carpet was removed, then came the glue removal. Not an easy task! It took 3 weeks and 15 gallons of chemicals, 30 ZEP grinding wheels, then re-ground the entire job with a diamond cup wheel to remove all of the glue and stains.
