Why Choose Us

Benefits of Our Polished Concrete

Timeless Natural Aesthetic

Exposes the natural beauty of the concrete aggregate — every floor is completely unique depending on the stone in the slab.

Extremely Low Maintenance

No coatings to peel or reapply. Sweep and mop with neutral pH cleaner. The floor actually improves with age.

Densified & Stain Resistant

Lithium silicate densifier reacts with the concrete to create a harder, denser surface that resists staining and moisture absorption.

Eco-Friendly — Zero Coatings

No epoxy, no VOCs, no film to eventually peel and go to landfill. Polished concrete is one of the most sustainable flooring options available.

Improves Natural Lighting

The reflective surface bounces light around the room — reducing artificial lighting requirements and energy costs.

Lifetime Longevity

A properly polished concrete floor will last the life of the building. Re-polishing is rarely required before 10 years.

How It Works

Our Polished Concrete Process

Every job follows the same meticulous process — from free quote to final inspection — so you know exactly what to expect.

Slab Assessment

We inspect aggregate composition, surface condition and hardness — and advise on achievable finish levels before quoting.

Coarse Diamond Grinding

Metal-bond diamond tooling (16–30 grit) removes existing coatings, levels high spots and opens the aggregate.

Crack & Void Filling

Cracks, pits and voids are filled with colour-matched epoxy filler to create a uniform, blemish-free surface.

Progressive Diamond Polishing

The floor is polished through progressively finer grits (50 → 100 → 200 → 400 → 800 → 1500 → 3000) — each pass refining the surface further.

Densifier Application

Lithium silicate densifier is worked into the surface mid-process. It chemically reacts with the concrete to create a harder, more stain-resistant surface.

Stain Guard & Final Polish

A penetrating stain guard is applied for protection, followed by the final polish passes to achieve your specified sheen level.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions — Polished Concrete

Can any concrete slab be polished?

Most slabs can be polished to some degree. The result depends on the concrete mix design, aggregate content and slab condition. We assess the slab before quoting and provide reference photos of similar projects.

What sheen levels are available for polished concrete?

Polished concrete is graded from Level 1 (flat/matte, ~100 grit) to Level 4 (mirror polish, ~3000 grit). The most popular residential choice is Level 3 (semi-gloss, 800–1500 grit) — reflective but not mirror-like.

Is polished concrete cold underfoot in Queensland?

Concrete feels slightly cooler underfoot than timber or carpet — actually a benefit in Queensland's climate. In cooler areas of the state it pairs well with hydronic or slab heating.

How do I maintain polished concrete?

Sweep regularly and mop with a neutral pH cleaner. Avoid acidic cleaners such as vinegar or citrus products. If a stain guard has been applied, re-application every 3–5 years maintains stain resistance.

What is the difference between polished concrete and a concrete overlay?

Polished concrete grinds and refines the existing slab. A concrete overlay is a thin cementitious layer applied over the slab before polishing — useful when the existing slab is too rough or damaged for direct polishing.

Can polished concrete be installed in a new build vs an existing home?

Both. New slabs are typically easier and more cost-effective to polish as they are clean and level. Existing slabs may require more preparation and crack repair but deliver the same stunning result.
