Polished Concrete
Polishing grinds the surface of a slab through finer and finer diamond abrasives until it shines. The result is a hard, reflective floor with no coating to peel, popular in garages, shops, basements, showrooms and modern homes.

Common questions
Can any slab be polished?
Most can, but the slab has to be sound and flat enough. We check it before we recommend the finish.
Is polished concrete slippery?
It can be, so we can pick a lower sheen or add a slip-resistant treatment where grip matters.
