Our Polished Concrete Process: From Prep to Perfection
Assessment & Prep
We evaluate your existing slab (or new pour) and perform grinding to remove imperfections, ensuring a flawless base—essential for large-scale warehouses. See our concrete preparation services.
Polishing Stages
Using diamond abrasives, we progressively polish to your desired finish: cream (smooth luxury look), salt-and-pepper, or rock-cut (exposed aggregate for industrial durability).
Customization
Add dyes for color or joint filling for seamless, high-traffic surfaces (priced in your quote). Explore decorative options.
Densifying & Sealing
Apply silicate densifiers to reduce porosity, making it moisture-resistant and easy to maintain. Learn about maintenance.
Final Touches
Buff for high gloss, with options for slip-resistance in commercial settings.
For big projects, we install in phases to minimize disruption, so you can keep using the rest of the building. Discover how to polish concrete.
