We specialize in grooving concrete floors in dairy barns.
Our specialized equipment allows us to resurface concrete in barns to provide better traction for the livestock. This greatly reduces the likelihood of fall induced injuries, increases production with better mounting success, and maximizes life expectancy. Our experience in both concrete construction and dairy operations allows us to provide the highest level of service and competitive prices.
Our Services
We have a solution for every floor type; new, broomed, previously grooved, or wet stamped. In situations where a floor is to aggressively wet stamped, we can completely remove the surface and start with a flat floor. This process is done in multiple stages.
We offer deep grooves, mini grooves and any custom patterns and depth. Slot cutting, chain or cable slots for automatic scraper systems.
Deep Groove
Ideal for new or worn floors with little or no existing grooves. Deep grooves have better traction than mini when dry manure is present.
Patterns include:
Straight
Diagonal
Diamond
Square
Mini Grooving
Ideal for resurfacing existing grooves and areas that are washed daily. Mini grooves have better traction than deep groove when the floor is clean.
Patterns include:
Straight
Diagonal
Our state of the art grooving machines use diamond tipped blades for cutting. Our techniques offer significant benefits over other methods like scarifying or traction milling such as:
- Longer lasting grooves, scarified or milled floors wear down very fast
- Slippery mineral build in parlours can make scarified and milled floor ineffective
- Straight 90-degree edges
- Wider grooves do not fill up as quickly in dryer areas
Our solutions are always on a case by case basis and we work with clients to determine the best course of action for their specific needs.
Experience
18 Years Concrete Experience
We have been doing concrete construction in Central Alberta since 2004, we have a vast amount of experience working with concrete and general agriculture construction. We have poured and finished thousands of square feet of concrete floors, diamond cut countless liners feet. This experience gave us a good understanding of the grooving process. Since then we have successfully grooved thousands of square feet of barn floor.

Owner / Operator Devos Concrete Resurfacing
Growing up on a dairy farm, I have always had an interest in with the methods used to care for the animals the techniques that can be used to enhance production. Being around animals gave me knowledge and experience in cattle handling.
Graduating in dairy science gave me a good understanding about the importance of hoof health and what is necessary to achieve it.
Our mission is to provide innovative solutions to customer's needs in a fast and efficient way.
