What is Polished Concrete?
Polished concrete is a modern flooring solution that involves mechanically grinding, honing, and polishing a concrete surface to achieve a smooth, reflective, and durable finish. Known for its sleek, contemporary appearance and long-lasting performance, polished concrete is ideal for both residential and commercial applications.
