Beyond the aesthetic appeal, concrete polishing also enhances the durability of the surface.
Although concrete is a highly utilized material known for its strength and durability, damage can occur to surfaces made from it. Cracks, chips, and discoloration can all occur to both indoor and outdoor surfaces, requiring attention from a skilled professional. Concrete also has a duller finish after it is placed, leaving some property owners wishing for something a bit more visually appealing and sleek. If you are in or around Toronto, Ontario, our team at Thor and Partners can help you get exactly what you want through the process of concrete polishing.
This process involves grinding and honing the surface progressively, using diamond abrasives. After grinding down the top layers, the next step is applying a chemical densifier to fill in the pores and create a harder surface. The final step involves polishing the surface to create a smooth and appealing look. And the result is a sleek, glossy appearance that can enhance the look of any room or outdoor area. We can perform concrete polishing in all types of settings, including historical properties that have unique specifications and needs.
Beyond the aesthetic appeal, concrete polishing also enhances the durability of the surface. When properly maintained, a polished concrete floor can typically hold up well, even when exposed to heavy foot traffic and everyday wear and tear. Another advantage is that polished concrete is less porous, which makes it easier to keep clean. Our technicians can help you maximize these benefits by performing the concrete polishing process on any eligible surfaces found within your structure.
