Polished Concrete Flooring at Chattanooga Floor Care

What is polished concrete flooring?

Polished concrete flooring is a low-maintenance flooring option that can be used in both commercial and residential spaces. Concrete polishing can add beauty to a property, as well as improve the strength and durability of a floor.

Concrete polishing offers customers a range of options, including sheen (matte, satin, gloss, or high-gloss), aggregate level, and optional dyed concrete colors.

Chattanooga Floor Care field technicians specialize in the detailed installation and maintenance of polished concrete flooring. We offer quality workmanship on this versatile, lasting flooring option at competitive prices.

Polished Concrete Flooring Installation Process

Chattanooga Floor Care installs polished concrete floors for a variety of commercial and residential settings. To install polished concrete, our field technicians mechanically grind, hone, and polish surfaces using industrial-strength tools.

Concrete polishing is a multistep process, which enables customers to choose the level of sheen, class of aggregate exposure, and color and design options that meets a customer’s maintenance and aesthetic requirements.

This versatility makes polished concrete an ideal flooring solution for a variety of settings and applications. 

Concrete Appearance: Sheen Levels + Aggregate Exposure

Chattanooga Floor Care offers the full range of sheen levels that alter a concrete floor’s appearance. Polish is typically measured on a 1-4 scale that evaluates the distinctness of images in the gloss, and the scale we follow was established by the American Society of Concrete Contractors. Flat or ground concrete, as a level 1, gives images a flat appearance, whereas highly polished concrete, as a level 4, gives images of a near mirror-like reflection. 

Aggregate exposure marks the differences in fine and coarse aggregate, or texture, exposed at the surface. Each class of aggregates, from coarse to fine, has particular benefits and qualities. Chattanooga Floor Care professionals advise on the most appropriate aggregate exposure for a space’s overall aesthetics, function, and durability.

Sheen levels may even impact the lighting in a space. Reflective, light-colored polished concrete floors may increase efficiency with improved natural lighting for daytime and less need for nighttime lighting.

Additionally, concrete holds its temperature and can help make a home more efficient in heating and cooling.

Dyed Concrete Options

Dyed concrete options can take your floor to the next level. From brown hues to gold tones and bright turquoise, dyed concrete enables customers to fully customize the look and feel of a space. 

Commercial customers may customize flooring with branding options for polished concrete floors. 

Chattanooga Floor Care uses Prosoco GemTone Dyes, the leading dye technology for polished concrete. These dyes create beautiful, durable floors, and they’re non-toxic, non-corrosive, and VOC compliant.
