Polished Concrete Little Rock | Some Key Advantages of Polished Concrete Floors
This content was written for Polished Concrete Little Rock Is your business or home suffering from maintenance and cleaning problems with your existing flooring? Do you have stains or missing tiles that make the first appearance a customer has when they walked into your establishment a negative one? Well, Polished Concrete Little Rock has a solution for you! Diamond polished concrete is a cost effective and low maintenance solution to the other alternatives such as commercial carpeting, ceramic tile, VCT tiles, or laminate sheets and tiles. Call us at 501-406-2223 to talk to one of our sales reps and allow us to put a solution together to solve your unique needs. Environmentally Friendly: While there are numerous advantages to diamond polishing concrete floors one of the most important is that it is uniquely a green construction option. The great part about this process is that it uses the existing slab of concrete on your building as the finished flooring product. Over the years there is no carpet or tiles to tear out in replace. This debris frequently lines up in a landfill somewhere. Our solution is a near permanent flooring option that is easy to maintain with a cost-effective up-front price. It will last for years and you will be doing your part to help our environment. Efflorescence: For those businesses or homes that are already using concrete flooring as an option, polished concrete flooring offers the additional advantage of the reduction or elimination of efflorescence. Efflorescence is concrete giving off a fine dust that works its way up through the surface when it is not diamond polished or sealed to prevent this from happening. This dust gets kicked up in the air by foot traffic in equipment movement across the surface and spreads throughout your entire home or business. In addition to making for a dusty, dirty appearance it is also a pesky allergen for many people. Economic: Polished Concrete Little Rock offers the most cost-effective long-term flooring solution for storefronts and restaurants. If you don't want to read a bunch of boring studies and look over tables of statistics, just go to the largest retailer in America and see what they have as their flooring in their thousands of stores. You will find that it's diamond polished concrete. That did not happen by accident. America's largest retailer watches every penny and knows that diamond polish concrete is the most cost-effective solution for their business. It is incredibly easy to maintain, holds up to heavy foot traffic, and is cost effective. Lower Maintenance: So many of the typical flooring products that are in a business can require weekly or sometimes multiple times per week waxing. The waxing is put on 2 make the floor shiny again and to protect the actual flooring product period the problem with waxing is that it is not a permanent solution. It's a cheap way to make your floor look clean and shiny in the short term. The problem is that waxing also requires periodic stripping so that it doesn't build up too thick. The stripping process is bad for your flooring and is the reason that you see so many cracked and broken tiles in a lot of businesses. Diamond Polish concrete requires only annual maintenance (or less depending upon foot traffic) and the surface has much greater scuff and scratch resistant than any wax coating that is put on. Durability and Safety: Sometimes Business owners are convinced to go another route on their concrete flooring. A sealer is used and makes the floor shiny and very clean looking after the application. The problem with concrete sealer on a floor though is that like wax it is not a permanent solution. It is again a wear layer that is placed on the floor to protect the concrete and seal it off from efflorescence. Like wax though a sealed floor requires frequent maintenance. It does not have the scuff and scratch resistant that a diamond polish concrete floor has so wax is either applied or it has to be re sealed again to get back to that bright shiny appearance. Once the waxing process has begun it has all of the problems of waxing listed above. If an owner wants to avoid these issues and decides to reseal the floor a whole new set of issues emerges. Sealers by their nature are very strong chemicals with a high VOC content. This means that dangerous fumes are present and in order to re seal the floor a business must shut down for a period of time to ventilate these dangerous fumes from their building.
