When looking at ways to refurbish a property, polishing your concrete floor would not immediately spring to mind. However, perhaps the option should be carefully considered. You would be amazed at what a difference it can make.
Concrete polishing, if done correctly, can completely change the ambience of a room. Although there is the machinery available for hire, it is really a fairly specialised skill which is best left to the professionals. Polished concrete helps a business realise significant saving in maintenance costs when compared to carpeted or tiled floors. Polished concrete is extremely durable making it particularly suitable for areas where high volumes of foot traffic are expected.
With hygiene and cleanliness in mind, it is considered easy to keep clean and its hardness makes it extremely resistant to scratching. With the decision made, the first stage in the process will be some concrete grinding. This is completed by using a grinder which has interchangeable grit pads which are changed to finer grit as the process is carried, just like sandpapering a piece of timber. One of the main secrets of the trade is in knowing when to change the grade of the grit pad to a finer one.
