Polished concrete, a sleek contemporary floor

Polished concrete floors are a versatile flooring option that can add a sleek, contemporary feel to any renovation or self build project. Their smooth, seamless look and texture will add an industrial style to a home, enhancing both modern interiors and traditional, period schemes.

Polished concrete floors were originally found in factories for their low-maintenance and durable qualities, but have become a popular solution for those looking to create a wow-factor interior. This is because they offer a flat appearance with no grout lines, which helps to maximise the feeling of space.

Polished concrete is made through combining concrete (which consists of cement, sand, water and gravel) with a chemical that increases its density. This ensures that when the concrete is poured and sanded down, it’ll eventually reveal a striking sheen that is the look we know and love as polished concrete floors.
