Strong and Durable: Polished concrete flooring is very tough and resistant to various issues and substances, and is able to withstand the pressure from heavy equipment such as cars, trucks, forklifts, and inventory. That is why it is such a popular material for hard working commercial areas such as garages and warehouses. Durability also means that the material is difficult to damage, even in higher traffic areas. Most average daily traffic will not harm polished concrete floors in your home or business as easily, and you also don’t have to worry about damage from most dropped items.
Life-Span: A polished and properly maintained concrete floor can last many many years. Even in commercial applications it can survive under high traffic conditions for years to come. This saves you money, while also preventing the troubles of having to get new flooring installed periodically. ALso, maintenance costs for polished concrete floors is lower than conventional flooring options.
Maintain Easily: Keeping a polished concrete floor looking its best will only require a minimum amount of maintenance. It will need to be sealed or waxed periodically depending on the level of traffic in order to maintain the protective layer over its surface. Other than that you just have to dust mop or broom sweep daily to prevent dirt accumulation. You should also damp mop it weekly to remove smudging, scuffs, and water marks, and restore gloss.
Cost-Effective: Depending on the level of complexity, polished concrete floors can cost as little as $3 a square foot or as much as $10 a square foot. Most concrete floor polishing options are quite cost-effective, especially if you have an existing concrete slab that is ready for polishing. The price savings doesn’t always come at installation, but over its lifetime if you factor in maintenance costs.
Design Options: When most people think of concrete floors they think of ugly gray utilitarian surfaces with sharp bumpy textures. However modern advances in concrete mixing and setting have allowed designers to achieve an endless variety of color and texture effects. In some cases coloration will be mixed directly into the concrete before the slab is placed. For already installed floors you can grind the surface, and use an appropriate dye or staining agent. Alternatively you can just polish the surface to a smooth sheen.
Clean & Sanitary: Properly sealed and polished concrete can be virtually resistant to fluids, especially water, therefore resisting mustiness, allergens, and fungus. Protective layers installed can provide waterproof barriers and prevent contaminants from actually getting to the concrete.
Green Option/Environmentally Friendly: There are no harmful chemicals involved in the concrete polishing installation process. Polished concrete floors do not contain harmful Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) like hardwood floors, vinyl carpets and synthetic carpets. There are almost no chemicals used other than sealer after polishing used which keeps the impact on the environment lower.
Think of polished concrete floors as a long term investment over actual cost. They will actually save you money in the long run in you home or business!
