How long does it take to polish a concrete slab?
This depends on a number of factors, firstly how big the job is, how accessible the site is, and what finish you have selected. i.e. CCC Polished Concrete or Grind and Seal. -
Can a concrete floor be damaged and subsequently repaired?
A concrete floor though very hard and durable is not completely invincible. A floor can be damaged, for example, should someone hit the floor with a chisel. Sometimes, particularly if a slab was poured incorrectly with too wet a mix, a piece of aggregate (small stone) may become dislodged from the finished surface after a certain amount of time.
