What it is
Polishing mechanically grinds, hones, and refines a concrete slab into a smooth, finished floor - no coating to peel or wear off, because the floor is the concrete itself. It can be dyed or stained in nearly any color, enhance the natural tones of the slab, incorporate decorative saw cuts, and showcase logos or graphics.
Aggregate exposure: Class A (cream finish) - Class B (salt & pepper) - Class C (medium to large exposure)
Sheen level: Level 1 (flat/matte) - Level 2 (satin) - Level 3 (semi-gloss) - Level 4 (high gloss)
Color: natural tones, dyes/stains (single or multi-color), and decorative saw cutting.

Quick FAQ
Can you polish an existing or older slab?
Yes. Most existing concrete in sound condition can be polished; we assess the slab first and repair as needed before polishing.
How long does a polished floor last?
With routine cleaning, a polished floor can perform for decades - there is no coating to delaminate, and the surface can be re-polished if it ever dulls.
Does it need waxing or special maintenance?
No waxing or stripping. Routine dust-mopping and occasional damp cleaning keep it looking its best - and our maintenance team can handle it for you.
