Concrete is the most environmentally friendly flooring option. It is something that is part of every residential, industrial and commercial building in St Louis.
Because of its longevity, sustainability, performance and durability, it's no surprise that many St Louis businesses and households choose polished concrete's smooth and lustre-looking finish.
Concrete polishing is like sanding wood. The finer you sand it the better looking it becomes. This is essentially what polished concrete is - mechanically grinding the concrete with different diamond grits until it becomes glass smooth.
Because of its durability, polished concrete is ideal for various areas such as St Louis homes, retail shops, box stores, warehouses, industrial facilities, hotel lobbies, offices, restaurants, bars and more.

Almost any structurally sound concrete slab, old or new, can be polished. New concrete slabs must be fully dried with no moisture trapped inside. Ideally, the concrete has to be at least 28 days old.
We start with grinding the floor mechanically to reveal the stones in the concrete slab and remove any dirt, grime, stails, and old paint and sealers.
The next step is to repair all damage to the floor, from cracks to holes and concrete joints. Some repairs might be visible on the finished floor, but the way we do it, they will be more of an added charm to the floor than an eye sore.
Once the stones are exposed we make many passes over the floor with various diamond grits - starting with lower grits then moving to higher and finer grits.
Once we've done a variety of passes with different diamond grits we then grout any remaining holes and apply a concrete hardener.
When the concrete hardener is fully cured we polish the floor with different resin polishing pads until we reach the desired sheen.
The final step in every polished concrete floor is to clean it, apply a stain guard and burnish the floor.
