Polished Concrete
Polished concrete is the best concrete flooring option on the market today.
From 100,000 square foot commercial projects to 500 square foot garages or basements, Modern Polished Concrete has the perfect flooring solution for you.
Concrete Polishing enhances the natural beauty of concrete. Through a process of densifying the concrete with impregnative harderners and grinding with diamond tooling we can achieve high gloss floor that is as beautiful as it is durable. The resulting surface is very low-maintenance and can be stained/dyed to replicate the look of polished stone.
Designed for use on old or new concrete in both prestigious commercial projects and intimate residential spaces, polished concrete has unlimited design capabilities to transform ordinary concrete into a limitless palette of color and design.
Now serving the entire state of Virginia for homeowners, and the entire east coast for commercial projects.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]

Why Polished Concrete?
Polished concrete is a high-gloss finish achieved by using special floor polishers fitted with diamond abrasive disks (similar to sandpaper) to grind down surfaces to the desired degree of shine and smoothness.

How Its Done
Heavy-duty polishing machines equipped with progressively finer grits of diamond-impregnated segments or disks (like sandpaper) are used to gradually grind down the concrete. The grinding continues to the desired degree of shine and smoothness.
The process begins with the use of coarse diamond segments bonded in a soft or hard metal depending on the hardness of the concrete. The segments are coarse enough to remove minor pits, blemishes, glues, or light coatings from the floor, giving it a smooth feel. Depending on the condition of the concrete, this initial rough grinding is generally a three- to four-step process and involves several different grits.
The next steps involve fine grinding of the concrete surface using diamond abrasives embedded in a resin matrix. Crews continue to use ever-finer grits of polishing disks until the floor has the desired sheen. The grits will usually range from 50 to 3000 grit for an extremely high-gloss finish.
A chemical hardener, dyes, and stain protectors are also applied throughout the polishing process. The combination of chemicals used to make the concrete harder, and progressively finer grits of diamond polishing is what creates a durable and high gloss finished concrete floor.
