What sheen levels are available for polished concrete?

We offer four levels: flat/matte (ground but no sheen), satin (low sheen), semi-polished (medium gloss), and high-polish (mirror-like reflective finish). Most residential clients choose satin or semi-polished.

Is polished concrete slippery?

Polished concrete has a coefficient of friction similar to standard concrete. It's generally not slippery under dry conditions. For wet areas, we can apply anti-slip treatments.

How long does polished concrete last?

Polished concrete can last the lifetime of the building with minimal maintenance. Unlike coatings, there's nothing to peel or delaminate — the polish is part of the concrete itself.

Can you polish old or damaged concrete?

In most cases, yes. Our grinding process can remove surface damage, minor stains, and imperfections. Severely damaged concrete may need repair before polishing.

Is polished concrete expensive?

Polished concrete is cost-competitive with other premium flooring options and often less expensive long-term because it requires minimal maintenance and never needs re-coating.
