Metric Concrete Design & Outdoor Living
polished concrete floors have become undoubtedly the most popular and widely spread-flooring option used for residential, commercial and industrial spaces.
Polished concrete is an option for residential, commercial and industrial interiors. We assess the slab, agree on the finish and define preparation, protection and maintenance in the project scope.
A polished floor should be specified for the activity in the building. Discuss expected traffic, spills and cleaning with Metric so the finish and maintenance plan address the actual use.
Here are some Polish Concrete
key benefits
Untreated concrete is strong, but it is vulnerable to damage and chemical reactions. Concrete is a porous product, so the process of salt migration leads to dusting that can damage epoxies and other surface coating, problems resolved at the source by polishing.
Surface preparation, the selected treatment system and ongoing care should be described together. Ask which protective products are included and how the completed floor should be cleaned and maintained.
Overall, superior ambient lighting can make your home look newer and cleaner, so it is more appealing.
Evaluate the finished surface for its intended use, including wet areas and expected traffic. The project specification should identify any required slip-resistance testing.
The overall effect of polishing your concrete floor is to cut the cost of ownership.
Review the product data and safety information for the selected treatments and cleaners. Any indoor-air-quality or environmental certification requirements should be addressed in the written project specification.

Sweeping and mopping, occasionally damp mopping, are the only cleaning activities you will want to engage in so as to preserve the high gloss and prevent the accumulation of dirt on the flooring surface.
