Concrete Polishing

Concrete polishing provides many benefits that make it an attractive flooring solution for both residential and commercial properties. Unique Concrete Solutions is experienced in the art of masterful concrete finishes, this process enhances aesthetics while delivering durable, low-maintenance floors.

Restore old concrete slabs

One major advantage of concrete polishing is that it allows you to transform existing concrete slabs into beautiful finished floors without the need for replacement. This provides a very cost-effective solution compared to installing new flooring like tiles, wood, or carpet. By polishing in place, it also minimizes disruption and waste from removing old flooring materials.

Increases longevity & suits high-traffic spaces

The multi-step polishing process gives concrete greater strength, density, and beauty. It involves grinding, honing, and applying densifiers and sealers that seal and protect the surface. This enhances the natural aggregate and minerals in the concrete for an attractive transformation. Polished concrete reflects light to showcase subtle color variations within the material.

The polished finish produces highly durable, scratch and stain-resistant floors. Regular foot traffic, occasional drops, and common spillages won’t damage polished concrete over time like they would with less resilient flooring options. The density achieved through polishing makes the surface very resistant to wear and everyday abuse.

Maintenance and cleaning is easy

Polished concrete floors are remarkably easy to maintain and clean compared to other cleaning options like carpet and wooden floorboards. Simple cleaning with water, detergent, and occasional reapplication of sealers is usually all that’s required. This low-maintenance flooring option won’t retain the dirt and grime of visitors and family, making it the perfect option for busy family homes. It’s suitable for families, busy households, and high-traffic commercial spaces.

Great for temperature control

Concrete’s natural thermal capabilities provide energy efficiency benefits too. Polished floors absorb and retain heat to stabilize indoor temperatures without needing as much heating or cooling. This saves on evergrowing electricity bills.

Colour and radiant options to enhance any interior

The aesthetic possibilities created through polished concrete are virtually limitless. A range of textured finishes from ultra-smooth to rustic with visible aggregates allow complementing various interior styles. Custom color stains provide further scope to realize one-of-a-kind designer floor looks. Various aesthetics can suit both modern and traditional settings too.

Popular among allergy sufferers

Polished concrete floors are also hypoallergenic making them an especially popular option among people with severe allergies or compromised immune systems. They don’t retain mold, bacteria, or trapped dust particles that can aggravate allergies or asthma. the flat solid surface of polished concrete also makes it very easy to sanitise. 

When you combine the numerous benefits of polished concrete floors with the service, workmanship and experience of the Unique Concrete Solutions team you get outstanding flooring that will add value to your home for decades to come.
