Polished Concrete Flooring

Polished Concrete Flooring Residential | Commercial

Polished concrete is a diverse, durable, and beautiful flooring that can be installed over any substrate at any stage of a project. It can be poured as a thick slab on grade mass, or as a thin section overlay. It is a medium that takes time to understand and experience to coerce in the way that you want it to behave. It is both a craft and chemical reaction, thus it requires both artistry and analysis to come together as a thing of beauty.

Old or New Concrete

Whether old or new, most concrete can be polished to achieve a vast array of finishes. The minimal amount of upkeep and maintenance required with polished concrete floors provides a tremendous cost saving. No need for stripping or waxing and say goodbye to topical sealers! Imagine black-glass cast into a white floor – we’ve done it! Picture stainless steel pieces polished with a jet black matrix – check! There are unlimited opportunities for design. Whatever you decide, the result is an extremely durable and uniquely personal floor that will look great for years to come!

It's Mainstream

Polished concrete is no longer a new flooring option. It is being specified by architects, homeowners, building managers and facility operators on a regular basis. Unlike tile, linoleum, hardwood or other pre-manufactured floor coverings, polished concrete is a multi-step process that relies heavily on the installation team. Not all concrete is the same. Concrete varies depending on the prescribed application, geographical location, installation methodology and curing state. Our polishing contractors employ the skills of the trade, read the condition of the slab and choose the appropriate methodology. Our team is skilled at elucidating the needs of the customer while respecting the integrity of the material and site conditions.

The Process

Polishing concrete requires the use of heavy-duty machines with diamond impregnated disks. Depending on substrate condition and desired aesthetic, there can be up to 11 different grinding/polishing passes, with different applications of dyes and sealers in between each stage.

Decorative Options

Concrete can be integrally or topically coloured absolutely any colour. It can be matte or shiny or everything in between. There are not many materials that are as design diverse.
