  1. Grind to achieve flatness and remove scratches

  2. Grout to fill small holes and imperfections

  3. Apply hardener with a broom

  4. Remove excess hardener using 50-grit polishing pads

  5. Apply a light coat of hardener and allow to dry

  6. Remove hardener with 100-grit

  7. Repeat hardener coating if required

  8. Remove hardener with 200-grit

  9. Polish with 400, 800, 1500 or 3000 grit depending on desired finish (matte or gloss)

  10. Apply a light coat of enhancer, allow to dry, and buff off excess

The grind and seal steps are critical to the final result, and FKR guarantees the use of only high-quality equipment and materials for every project.

At FKR Constructions, we specialise in all aspects of concrete & concrete repairs.

What Are the Main Reasons for Choosing Polished Concrete for Your Flooring Needs?

Polished Concrete Is Sustainable

A polished concrete floor is now viewed as one of the most sustainable flooring options in the industry as it uses materials that are already present in a building.

Polished concrete is created using the exposed concrete slab that the building is built on. This means that you do not need to waste unnecessary energy installing more materials to create new flooring.

If you want to make an environmentally conscious choice when it comes to flooring, eco-friendly polished concrete is the floor for you.

Polished Concrete Is Affordable

The sustainable benefits of polished concrete also mean that it is one of the most cost-efficient flooring methods available.

Using decorative concrete that already exists within the building means that you do not have to spend extra time or money choosing and installing a brand new mechanically polished concrete floor. With the material already present, you can just let FKR get to work!

New wooden floors or tiles can be really expensive, taking a big bite out of your budget.

If you have a limited budget for flooring, polished concrete is becoming the most cost-effective choice, giving you high quality for a reasonable cost.

Polished Concrete Is Low-Maintenance

Maintaining floors can be a nightmare. From choosing proper cleaning products to investing in regular maintenance, ensuring the durability of your floors can be a full-time job, but polished concrete offers a long-lasting solution.

Polished concrete is incredibly easy to maintain, as it only needs some water and basic cleaner to keep clean.

With polished concrete, there’s no need to worry about waxing, polishing or sanding as it retains its shine, underlining the concrete offers inherent durability.

It’s also incredibly durable so you don’t have to worry about making any chips or dents when moving furniture around or dropping things on the floor.

Polished concrete is known to last for as long as 100 years (yes 100 years!) so if you’re after that type of longevity, this is the floor for you.

Polished Concrete Is Safe

Slip-resistant tapes and floor mats are also available to ensure the safest possible flooring for your home or office.

Polished concrete is also the safest flooring option for those suffering from allergies as dust mites and other allergens cannot spread as quickly as they can on traditional flooring such as carpets.

Polished Concrete Is Beautiful

Polished concrete is one of the most attractive flooring options for homes and businesses.

Polished concrete has superior light reflectivity, increasing the natural light in any room or showroom.
 
It is also customisable so you can select the level of polish you desire for your floor. If you prefer a matte finish you can request a grit level between 100 and 400. A highly polished finish in which you can see your reflection can be obtained with a grit level of at least 800.

Whatever concrete floor polishing finish you’re looking for, we’ll be able to deliver.
