Benefits of Polished Concrete Minnetonka MN

Durable

We use a concrete hardener to increase the concrete's hardness, dustproof it and make it less vulnerable to damage from heavy traffic such a forklifts and heavy manufacturing equipment.

Easy To Clean

Requiring only occasional damp mopping, polished concrete floors eliminate the need for waxes or coatings, making it extremely easy to maintain in busy commercial and industrial facilities.

Improves Relectivity

The reflective properties of a decorative polished concrete floor maximizes lighting in any space while reducing energy bills.

Retains Heat

Polished concrete provides quick heat-up times and retains and distributes the warmth produced from underfloor heating, making heated polished concrete floor a great option to improve the comfort and warmth of your Minnetonka MN home during winter.

Minnetonka MN Polished Concrete Process

Almost any structurally sound, either new or old concrete floor, can be polished. For new concrete floors, the slab must be at least 28 days old and fully dried before polishing it.

1. Grind it

We start every concrete floor by mechanically grinding it to reveal the stones in the concrete slab and remove any dirt, grime, stails, old paint and sealers.

2. repair it

We then repair any imperfections in the floor. Repairing the cracks and holes in the floor is crucial for the floor's integrity and durability.

3. Grind it

Once we are happy with the look of the floor and the level of stone exposure is reached, we make many passes over the floor with various diamond grits, starting with a lower grit and moving to higher and finer grits.

4. harden it

When we are done with a variety of passes with different diamond grits, we grout any remaining holes and apply a concrete hardener. The concrete hardener is important because it densifies the concrete and closes the gaps on the surface, making it a far stronger and more dense floor.

5. polish it

When the concrete hardener is fully cured, we start the polishing process with different resin polishing pads until we reach the desired sheen on your Minnetonka MN floor.

6. seal it

The final step is to clean your floor and apply a protective UV stable topcoat. The topcoat will protect your new polished concrete from damage and wear and tear.
