Once considered a very cheap and industrial solution, meant only for yards and factory floors, cement flooring has evolved to the point of beauty. Selecting a commercial polished concrete floors contractor Johnson City should be an easy task as their work speaks for itself.

Homes and commercial properties are turning to concrete flooring as a viable solution. Even if there was existing flooring such as tiles or wooden floors, these can be easily removed and the concrete below buffed and finished to present a durable, beautiful finish. Durable, gleaming, easy to clean and maintain as well as attractive. That sounds like the perfect flooring solution, especially in high traffic zones such as restaurants, shopping malls and office buildings.

Whether the business is in food service, relying on strict hygiene and cleanliness, or in retail, relying on daily trade, the amount of disruption is kept to a minimum. New surfaces or resurfacing will both be fairly quick allowing the business to resume with the least amount of disruption possible.

The durable, gleaming floor will look great in whichever finish you opt for, whether you've selected a colour powder or gone with the original cement look. They will not disintegrate or flake and the condition will remain excellent for years into the future.

When the mixture is poured and levelled, the rough stones are covered by the smooth cement. It's a matter of choosing whether or not to start grinding and if so, how much will be done. Taking the choice to polish and not grind is normally done at this phase. Whether you selected to add a colour to your floor or not, you will have a result of a gleaming, glossy floor with a uniquely patterned finish as no two floors can be the same.

Stage two of the grinding and polishing will reveal only the smallest amount of the aggregate beneath resulting in a salt and pepper look. The second stage can sometimes result in an uneven finish as the stones are not at a uniform depth beneath the surface. It will still be a special looking floor if you go this route.

Should you choose to continue grinding to the next stage, you will reveal the multiple irregular, rough looking stones below the surface. This is the best result one could get from this flooring. Again, completely original and individual, depending on the stones used and the colours will range giving a wonderful finish.

The floors will then be buffed to a high sheen and the finished floor will look like it's got a layer of water on it, but be uniquely slip resistant at the same time. Areas that see a lot of foot traffic will eventually erode the surface, as they would on tiles or wooden flooring. The absolute beauty of this product, however, is that it simply needs to be polished up during the course of maintenance to get back to the initial look.
