Polished Concrete Chatham

One of the most evident advantages of polished concrete in this period of environmental responsibility is the sustainability factor. Having a comparatively low impact on the environment is a key feature of polished concrete. In homes which are built on top of a concrete base (as many are), there is no need for extra flooring materials, merely the sanding down, sealing and buffing of the pre-existing concrete floor. There are also very few chemical vapours given off by the products used in polished concrete, consequently the internal air quality and the outside environment isn't impaired by the process. An extra bonus is that there is no permanent smell emitted by the concrete polishing and sealing compounds and substances.

Concrete is also a tremendously cost effective material for floors. For some time concrete has stood out as the most affordable available flooring option. The likelihood is that your home will have already got a concrete floor, as a lot of residential houses in Chatham are constructed on top of a large concrete chunk. The visible flooring materials of tile, wood, vinyl and carpeting are just laid on top of it. There is little less expensive than a pre-existing floor surface that simply needs preparing. The requirement for expensive air-conditioning will be minimized since polished concrete remains cool even on the hottest of Chatham days. Additionally, the reflective properties of polished concrete flooring helps to reduce a home's interior lighting expenditure.

An obvious advantage of polished concrete flooring is that it is quite low maintenance. Intensive cleaning is imperative with most commonplace floor coverings. For example carpeting and rugs need constant vacuuming, wooden flooring needs waxing and polishing and marble flooring is prone to scuffing and requires specific chemical cleaners. In stark contrast polished concrete flooring is exceedingly resistant to scuffing and staining, and most of the time just requires a swift mopping. As well as the added practicalities and convenience of this, time and money might also be saved.

One of the primary characteristics of concrete flooring is durability. It's no surprise that some of the toughest floors in Kent were created with treated concrete. The most likely lifespan of a properly treated concrete floor is approximately a hundred years. For this reason, those folks with that knowledge in Chatham have for some time employed this sort of flooring for high-footfall areas like factories, retail outlets, commercial buildings, restaurants, studios and offices. There are rarely any troubles with moisture damage and rotting since a concrete floor can literally "breathe". Vinyl, tile or laminate for example can sometimes trap moisture resulting in costly repairs and replacements, which can be avoided by using concrete.

While it might not initially seem obvious, concrete flooring also offers health benefits. Problems with breathing and allergies are known to be triggered by dust mites. Carpets with their long fibres and tiles and wooden floorboards with their joints and cut-outs are breeding grounds for contaminants, germs and microbes. Because the finished surface of polished concrete is seamless and smooth, there's nowhere for those unwelcome visitors to hide. You should certainly think about polished concrete flooring if you are looking to create "allergy-free" surroundings.

The fact is that concrete is a really adaptive material, offering many potentialities. There are a great many choices with regards to the stains and treatments which can be used to fashion it. For example, people who desire the traditional "wet" look, can obtain this with the help of silicon based sealing compounds. A well liked style for concrete flooring is the faux tile appearance, making it seem like a tiled floor. If the chosen appearance is floor boards a wood plank design can be stamped in the concrete. Magnificent patterns are accomplished by diamond grinding concrete floors to lay bare cross sections of the aggregate stones.
