Is it possible to have a polished concrete floor in a domestic house which will not crack and make the polishing ugly? Can concrete be reinforced to avoid cracking?
A structural slab and topping slab or screed should be reinforced but even with these measures there is no guarantee that the concrete will not crack. If your foundations move the slab will move which may cause cracking.
-
Do I have to paint a sealer on our polished floor every few years?
CCC Polished Concrete is one of the most durable and low maintenance floor finishes one could choose. Other than mopping the floor little maintenance is required. In very high traffic areas the floor may require a light burnish every few years. This is a process which just freshens up the finish.
