What are the benefits of polished concrete floors?
Polished concrete floors are more durable and considered low-maintenance. Its high coefficient of friction can make it non-slippery. Polished concrete reduces dust mite and allergen problems, and does not support mold growth. Polished concrete flooring is hardwearing and will not chip or dent like softer surfaces such as timber and tiles.
Anecdotal evidence suggests highly reflective polished concrete reduces lighting needs and can improve natural lighting.
Polished concrete is easily maintained with the use of clean water or a neutral balance PH cleaner. There are also many cleaners designed for the proper maintenance of polished concrete available. There is never a need for wax to be added as it will only dull the finish. A concrete floor that has been hardened and polished will have an extremely long life expectancy compared to other flooring.
