Polished Concrete
Also referred to as honed, ground or diamond, polished concrete generally refers to a concrete surface that provides a hardwearing, durable finish with a surface luster or shine. Polished concrete finishes have been used primarily in industrial buildings, manufacturing plants and warehouses, but are increasingly becoming more popular in residential, retail, and commercial buildings.
In the past, polished concrete has been grey, but today it is increasingly being seen in a wide range of colors. By using integral color and surface colorants, including dry shake hardeners, dyes and/or staining, designers now have many options to choose from.
Using large walk behind floor grinding and polishing equipment, our professionals can grind or polish existing or freshly cured concrete surfaces. The process of diamond polishing utilizes progressively finer industrial grade diamond impregnated pads, disks or wheels which can take a dull concrete surface and ‘polish’ it to create an extreme shine and luster without necessarily using any chemicals or sealants. This process is similar to smoothing out wood with sand paper but uses diamonds with concrete.
During the process of Diamond polishing it is becoming more and more popular to add a surface densifier or hardener that increases the stain resistance, density and overall performance of the polished concrete surface. Polished concrete is also more affordable than most people think. It has the lowest life cycle cost and lowest environmental impact of ANY other type of floor.
