What exactly is concrete polishing?
The process includes grinding and honing existing cement surfaces until the level of shine is achieved. Mid way through the project, a liquid hardener is applied to densify the concrete. This increases the surface area to polish which yields the desired level of shine.
This is achieved with heavy equipment, diamond polishing blades and a high powered industrial vacuum component. Pricing varies depending on size of floor and other factors from $.00 – $7.00 Per Square Foot but can easily jump to $10.00 -$12.00 for decorative flooring projects.
Not every floor is a candidate for a polished cement floor. Frequently there are more appropriate options that solve functional and design options along with a natural decorative appearance.
All the systems listed here have diverse features and benefits. They’re durable, water resistant, seamless and low maintenance. They limit and prevent mold and bacteria growth plus unlimited decorative options.
