We want your home to look its best! So, anyplace you have a concrete floor that requires a protective, expressive coating, California Custom Coatings can help make just that with foundation polishing. Whether you have a multi-car garage or a modest space with a large need for improvement, we are ready to visit your home in Laguna quickly and provide you with an honest, competitive estimate.
Polished Concrete Methods
For some commercial and most industrial locations, a shiny grey base looks just fine. For these customers, we clean and prep the concrete floor, buff and polish it smooth, and then add a protective coating. Residential properties, however, generally necessitate a greater demonstration of experience and adeptness from our professional installers. Therefore, we offer three different methods to help your residential flooring look like more than reflective concrete.
Cream Polished Concrete preps and shines only the top surface of the concrete, called the cream. Exposing sand aggregates layered in the concrete can uncover lovely swirls and patterns that are similar to those found in wood or stone. Very smooth concrete or newly laid concrete made to our expectations is needed for this technique. Where the existing floor cannot be used, California Custom Coatings might begin by creating a surface overlay that replaces the upper layer of the floor.
Salt and Pepper Polished Concrete smooths off just enough concrete to reveal the smaller aggregates beneath the surface, like pebbles and small gravel. The polishing reveals these natural materials while leaving the base foundation perfectly smooth. For remodels, testing is important to verify that the aggregates will lend the desired look. For new construction, California Custom Coatings can help you decide upon the aggregates that you like for a salt and pepper finish.
Rock Cut Polished Concrete smooths down to the larger aggregates. Akin to the salt and pepper finish, you should be able to anticipate what is coming as you polish away the top layers of concrete that covered the aggregates below, or you ideally should test a hidden portion of the floor to see what lies below. This terrazzo-style application evokes European elegance and is a common choice in luxurious architecture.
California Custom Coatings can show you examples of all three methods of polished concrete so that you can decide what works best for your floors.
Concrete polishing lets you surpass the standard flooring choices of wood, vinyl, or carpet. You can opt for pigment infusions of your choice! You can ask for metallic flooring that creates whirls of shimmer. You can select the depth of our polishing process to uncover the hidden makeup of minerals and stones inside every cement flooring. California Custom Coatings in Laguna is happy to help you investigate the process of residential foundation polishing!
