Hello. My name is Rick Amorey, and I am here to talk about concrete polishing.
I think I need to clarify first that I am not a concrete polishing contractor. I'm just someone who, while renovating my own home, stumbled upon the practice. One thing lead to another, and before you knew it, there was polished concrete in my house. I have since loved it very much, and I think everyone should at least check it out.
Why am I so ecstatic at concrete polishing, you ask? Why is it more affordable, more practical than all the other types of floor out in the market today? There are a bunch of reasons, and I will discuss each in detail.
The first thing that you would notice is that concrete, when polished, undergoes a Cinderella-like transformation from rags to riches. And don't worry; the it won't even end by midnight! All kidding aside, it just cannot be denied that polished looks very beautiful. As it also reflects light, having a polished concrete floor will mean that you don't need too much artificial light in your home.
There's also its definite cost-efficiency. Unless you plan on doing the diamond tooling yourself, you don't actually purchase new materials. If you remove your carpet or tile, you will mostly find concrete underneath your house. So, the only thing you actually pay for is the service of the contractor that will work the magic on your floor.
Also notably important is its low-maintenance. You see, the process of polishing closes the concrete at a molecular level, making it stronger, and also keeps away the collecting dust about it. The shine remains for a long time, and all you need to do is sweep it to maintain it.
Lastly, as I've just hinted at, concrete as a material is already quite durable. And as the polishing process strengthens this even further, you won't mind your concrete deteriorating at all. As for the polish? It'll stay. Trust me. - 16738
