If you stop to determine what you need in a concrete for a retail building, most owners and business people would say that they consider the longevity, the appearance, and the ease of maintenance. Many common types of retail flooring may often have one or two of these three attributes, but it is very a challenge or very expensive to name a type of floor that takes care of all three. Here at California Custom Coatings in Granite Bay, we believe that polished concrete is one solution for this three-factor problem.
How Does Polished Concrete Look?
Polished concrete takes the natural appearance of common concrete and enhances it with polishing. Just as boulders and rocks in the natural environment is polished sparkly by water or wind, concrete can be polished using grinders with various strengths of grit. The finished product gives the concrete a lovely shine and even a grain that compares with the look of wood or stone.
Is Polished Concrete Enduring?
Polishing concrete is a permanent process, just like polishing a stone. The concrete will always be shiny and smooth. If we stain the concrete a specific color, the liquid penetrates the upper layer of the concrete to a considerable depth, making the adjustment permanent. To seal in the improvements and further defend the investment, a protective and mirror-like clear epoxy coating is applied on top to preserve the beauty.
Polished Concrete is Easy to Sanitize
If you are accustomed to cleaning your floors with a constant schedule of cleaning, waxing, removing, and rewaxing, you will be happy to know that polished concrete requires none of this to stay lovely and lustrous. Epoxy topcoats are often kept clean with a convenient dustmopping or sweeping. Big messes are easily cleaned with a wet mop. The seamless floor has no cracks or joints where water can seep in and create rot and mold. Your flooring stays forever beautiful, smooth, and shiny.
