Why David Paul Foster Co. in Upland

Concrete Coating Removal in Upland, done right.

Stripping failed or unwanted coatings back to sound concrete — for our own jobs, and for contractors without the equipment to do it properly. We work Upland from the Euclid Avenue median up toward the foothill streets below the San Gabriels, with our own crew on every job — no subcontractors, no surprise charges, and one number to call from the first estimate to the finished concrete coating.

We apply concrete coating removal across Upland and the surrounding area, including Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga, Chino, Chino Hills.

What's included

  • Failed epoxy, paint, sealer, mastic and thinset taken back to sound concrete
  • Work we do for other contractors as well as on our own jobs
  • Grinding, shot blasting and scarifying — the right tool for the coating
  • Dust-controlled removal for occupied and interior spaces
  • The slab left profiled and ready for whatever goes on next
  • Our own equipment and our own crews
Concrete Coating Removal in Upland

Built for Upland homes.

Upland sits at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains with a well-preserved older core and a lot of established, mature-landscaped residential streets. The concrete tends to be older, well cared for, and attached to houses where the owners care what the finish looks like.

The foothill streets in San Antonio Heights get colder winter nights than the valley floor, which is worth a look at existing cracking before anything goes over a slab.

Shade matters here too, in a good way. Mature trees mean a lot of Upland patios are not taking the full unshaded sun that Moreno Valley or Fontana patios take, which widens the range of finishes that will hold their color.

Upland FAQs

Concrete Coating Removal in Upland, questions

Does the shade from mature trees change what we can use?

It helps. A patio under real shade is not taking the UV load that an open inland slab takes, which widens the range of colors and systems that will hold up. It does mean more organic staining and leaf litter, which is a cleaning question rather than a specification one.

Can you do this inside an occupied building?

Yes. Interior removal is a dust-control problem more than a grinding problem, and we run vacuum-assisted equipment and containment for occupied spaces. It changes the schedule and the price, so tell us up front that the building stays open and we will scope it that way.

What if you do not know what the old coating is?

Common, especially on a building that has changed hands. We test a small area first to see how it comes off before committing to a method across the whole floor, because the wrong approach on an unknown coating wastes a day and sometimes damages the slab. That test is part of the estimate, not an extra.
