Durability
Polished Concrete is a tremendously durable flooring surface! The combination of polishing and the application of professionally applied silica hardeners creates a surface that is at least two times harder than unpolished concrete. The shine that is brought out by polishing IS the surface of the concrete, not a wax or other sacrificial coating. In fact, daily use of polished concrete generally results in a MORE polished surface. We are certified installers of FGS PermaShine™ and can offer a ten year guarantee through L&M Construction Chemicals.
