Basic Information on Polished Concrete
Concrete polishing is very similar to sanding wood. When sanding
wood, sandpaper is used to remove small imperfections and make
the wood smoother. Polishing concrete is much the same except
that, instead of using sandpaper, your contractor will use a concrete
polisher. The concrete polisher is a machine that stands upright and
can be pushed across the floor. On the bottom of the polisher are
pads that have discs in them that are filled with shattered pieces of
diamonds and other hard rocks. This makes the discs strong enough
to smooth over any rough edges, cracks or uneven areas.
Some concrete polishers come in a hand-held form. These types of
concrete polishing tools work in much the same way the larger
models do but they are more suited to working on small areas of
concrete, such as concrete countertops. Your contractor may use
these smaller machines to buff up an area of your concrete floor that
sees much more wear than other areas, such as the entrance to your
home. They are also helpful in making sure the edges of your
flooring are completely polished, since these areas are especially
difficult to polish.

is cheaper than tiling, carpet and timber floors, it is also more
durable and easier to maintain and keep clean!
