Concrete Floors That Look Good and Last Long
Things to Do to Give Your Concrete Substrates a
Better Look
Lets make it look good
2
Concrete Polishing
  • The way polished concrete is catching on as a
    floor material, it might actually dethrone marble
    or granite as the number one luxurious flooring
    material.
  • If you want a satiny sheen, you can have it.
  • Or, if you prefer high-gloss, you can have that
    too.

3
Concrete Staining
  • Concrete staining is a time-tested way of giving
    some color to the dull grayness that is
    synonymous with concrete.
  • The liquid mixture will penetrate the concrete
    because of its piousness, and it will react
    causing a permanent change of color in the
    concrete.

4
Crack Repairs
  • When repairing concrete cracks, the professionals
    use materials that both fill out the existing
    crack and hold its sides to prevent the crack
    from spreading further
  • Engraving Concrete
  • Decorative Overlays

5
Decorative Overlays
  • Concrete overlays are usually made out of cement,
    aggregates, and resins, and they are very
    effective in smoothing out the surface of the
    concrete. Some overlays can be further customized
    by staining or dying, but they can be stamped
    with patterns or stencils to make some really
    amazing effects.

6
Engraving Concrete
  • You might not be able to engrave your portrait in
    concrete, but interesting circular patterns are a
    possibility. For best effect, engraving should be
    coupled with staining.

    floors, you will naturally want to keep it that
