Concrete Polishing
Transforming Concrete into Sleek, Professional Floors
Polished concrete is quickly becoming the preferred flooring choice for commercial spaces, offices, showrooms, and retail stores. At Solana Floor Coverings, we specialize in mechanical concrete polishing—a process that transforms dull, porous concrete into a smooth, reflective surface that’s both durable and low-maintenance.
The Concrete Polishing Process
Our process begins with a thorough evaluation of the existing slab. We then use industrial-grade diamond grinders to remove surface imperfections and open the concrete’s pores. The floor is then progressively polished with finer grits, creating a dense, hardened surface that resists wear. Finally, a penetrating sealer is applied to protect the floor and enhance its shine.
Benefits of Polished Concrete
Polished concrete is known for its modern, high-end appearance and ability to improve lighting by reflecting natural and artificial light. It’s also eco-friendly, as it utilizes the existing slab without the need for additional coatings or overlays. Plus, it’s easy to clean and maintain—requiring only routine dust mopping and occasional damp cleaning.
Applications for Polished Concrete
From corporate offices to high-traffic retail spaces, polished concrete is a versatile flooring solution. It’s resistant to dusting, cracking, and chipping, making it ideal for businesses looking for a long-lasting and professional flooring option.
The Importance of Expertise
Polished concrete requires specialized equipment and techniques. An inexperienced contractor may leave swirl marks, uneven finishes, or weak surfaces. At Solana Floor Coverings, our team has years of experience and the expertise to ensure a flawless finish every time.
