Highly Polished Concrete Floors

Why Choose Polished Concrete Floors?

Polished concrete floors are hard-wearing and easy to clean!

Polished concrete has become a popular flooring option in residential concrete flooring applications, commercial buildings and industrial flooring solutions in recent years. It is durable, low-maintenance, and eco-friendly, making it an ideal flooring choice for many residential and commercial clients choosing polished concrete for its aesthetic appeal and practicality.

Polishing concrete is done by grinding and honing the concrete surface to a smooth finish. We add products to enhance the finish of the floor, and to  strengthen it, making it ideal for high-traffic areas. Concrete polishing services involve progressively finer grits of diamond abrasives to produce a high-gloss finish, making the surface both durable and visually appealing.

There are many benefits of polished concrete for buildings – one of the most significant is its durability. Polished concrete is also incredibly strong and long-lasting, making it an ideal flooring choice for areas with heavy foot traffic. Additionally, the smooth surface of polished concrete is easy to clean and maintain, making it an excellent hygienic flooring solution for food-related businesses.

Polished Concrete
  • Reduces dust mite and allergy problems
  • Does not support mould growth
  • Reduces lighting needs and improves natural lighting
  • Concrete flooring has the ability to absorb heat and release it slowly, making for a warm cosy home.

Another advantage is eco-friendliness. Unlike other flooring options that require regular replacement, polished concrete can last for decades with proper care and maintenance. This significantly reduces the amount of waste generated, making it an environmentally-responsible choice.

It is also an aesthetically appealing option, with a range of finishes and colours to choose from. Whether you prefer a matte or high-gloss finish, the smooth and uniform surface of highly polished concrete can enhance the look of any space.

If you’re looking for a practical and stylish flooring solution, a professionally implemented concrete floor with the appropriate surface finish is the perfect choice. Contact EC Flooring today to learn more about how we can help you achieve your dream floor.
