| WorkSafe Victoria says concrete contains crystalline silica, that grinding creates silica dust, and that effective dust controls such as on-tool water suppression or on-tool dust extraction need to be used when grinding materials that contain it. Where water is used, the slurry has to be managed so it does not dry out. Ask how the floor will be prepared and how dust and slurry will be controlled.About concrete floor grinding and preparation | a floor that is ground or shot-blasted before coating | WorkSafe Victoria: Preventing exposure to crystalline silica dust · read |
| Asbestos Victoria says that if you know a suspect material was installed before 1990 it is safest to assume it contains asbestos, and to have it tested if you need to be certain. The Asbestos Safety and Eradication Agency's product guide says paint-on adhesives for attaching floor coverings to floorboards or slabs may also contain asbestos, particularly if black. Do not let anyone grind or sand it before it is tested.About garage floor coating | a floor with old tiles, sheet vinyl or adhesive on it | Asbestos Victoria: Finding and identifying asbestos · read Asbestos Safety and Eradication Agency: Vinyl flooring and tiles with asbestos (Asbestos Product Guide) · read |
| EPA Victoria says everyone must eliminate or reduce the risk of harm and prevent waste, including wastewater, from entering stormwater drains so far as reasonably practicable, and tells people on building sites to clean and wash up on site after painting, plastering and concreting, with the wash-up area far from stormwater drains. Ask where the wash-water and slurry will go.About concrete floor grinding and preparation | any job that washes down a floor or a tool | EPA Victoria: Stormwater · read EPA Victoria: Prevent stormwater pollution on building sites · read |

What changes a quote
Start with the floor itself: what is on it now, how much preparation it needs and whether the job also takes in repairs, which makes it more than one trade. Grinding comes next, because the dust controls and the handling of slurry belong in the quote. An older house can add testing for asbestos before anything is ground. How the job is done around wash-water is last: EPA Victoria's line on stormwater drains is in the checker above.
What a quote should list
Consumer Affairs Victoria tells tradespeople to say whether a quote includes transport, time and transport to get materials, the cost of materials, labour and apprentice costs and how they are calculated, and call-out fees and weekend or public holiday rates. Ask for those points in writing with the time estimate. The checker above lists each Victorian line with its source and read date.
