Concrete Grinding and Polishing Service
What is Concrete Polishing?
Concrete polishing is a comprehensive process aimed at enhancing both the aesthetics and performance of concrete surfaces. This process involves the use of grinding machines and diamond tools to repair and improve the appearance of concrete floors. The concrete polishing procedure starts with the removal of surface imperfections and damage, followed by grinding, honing, and polishing the concrete. The result is a smooth and shiny concrete surface, offering both aesthetic appeal and functional benefits.
Advantages of Concrete Polishing
- High Durability: Polished concrete is significantly more durable than traditional flooring materials, providing a long-lasting surface.
- Damage Resistance: Polished concrete surfaces are resistant to issues such as peeling, bubbling, and tearing that can occur with other flooring materials.
- Water Resistance: Polished concrete does not deteriorate when exposed to moisture, maintaining its structural integrity.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Concrete polishing is a more cost-effective solution compared to other flooring options.
- Increased Strength: The process enhances the durability of the existing concrete, extending its lifespan.
- Dust Reduction: Polished concrete eliminates dusting, reducing cleaning and maintenance costs.
- Health Safety: The chemicals used in the polishing process are non-toxic and safe for health.
- Increased Friction: Polished concrete provides higher friction coefficients compared to other flooring types, improving safety.
- Energy Savings: Enhanced light reflectivity contributes to energy savings by reducing the need for additional lighting.
- Operational Continuity: The polishing process allows businesses to continue their operations during application.
How is Concrete Polishing Performed?
- Repair and Restoration: Initial repairs are made to cracks and holes in the concrete surface, ensuring a smooth and solid base.
- Grinding: A metal diamond grinder is used to remove the top layer of soft and contaminated concrete.
- Repair of Small Voids: Small voids caused by air bubbles are repaired, creating a smooth surface.
- Hardening: A lithium silicate liquid hardener is applied to increase the durability of the concrete.
- Polishing: Resin diamonds are used to achieve the desired level of shine on the surface.
- Sealing: A protective sealer is applied to safeguard the surface and extend the lifespan of the polished concrete.
