In days gone by, concrete flooring was industrial, functional and cheap. The unattractive trademark dusty grey flooring has come a long way since then and commercial polished concrete floors contractor Johnson City are winning at changing the perception of concrete floors. Now a beautiful, stylish finish, people are clamouring to install polished concrete floors.
The fact that your property may already have old tiles, or vinyl floors, or even wood, will not be a problem as the surface below that can easily be used in the final flooring. The old floors will be removed and the concrete below checked and repaired. All crack and unevenness will be resolved and fixed. If necessary, a layer will be poured over the top to ensure that they are working with a quality base. The finished cement surface is durable, easy to clean and will look good for many, many years. This makes it ideal for business properties such as restaurants and shops.
Whether the business is in food service, relying on strict hygiene and cleanliness, or in retail, relying on daily trade, the amount of disruption is kept to a minimum. New surfaces or resurfacing will both be fairly quick allowing the business to resume with the least amount of disruption possible.
A limited range of colour can be added, leaving the decor options open to match whatever you choose. Even the basic grey cement colour will look classy and stylish once it's polished and gleaming. The finish is long-lasting and will not peel or flake making them a smart choice. You won't be required to redo your floors every couple of years.
The addition of aggregates to the cement product is somewhat standard. The level of exposure of these little stones is a matter of choice. The more the concrete is ground down and polished away during the application, the more exposed the stones are and the more interesting the final result. No intense grinding will leave you with a floor covered in a lovely smooth, swirly pattern of concrete. As the concrete was smoothed over, you will reap the benefits of a truly original finish as no two floors will look identical. Colour powders can be added if desired.
If you opt to start buffing and grinding to reveal the aggregate within the floor, the next stage will be a light grinding which will reveal only the tips of the little stones, leaving you with a kind of salt and pepper result. This is not always an even finish though as the stones may not always be at exactly the same depth beneath the top layer.
The last stage will expose the stones in their full form. The floor will be ground to the point that all the stones are revealed, showing the variety of colours, shapes and textures leaving you with a floor finish that is completely unique.
Finally, once your desired finish is achieved, the floor is going to be polished until gleaming. The wet looking floor is still non-slip and safe. Naturally, the floors will erode slightly over a long time, especially in areas with a lot of traffic. This is not a problem, however, as regular cleaning and maintenance will bring the floor back to its original beauty.
