Can i have my polished floor repaired i’ve just had it done and it was a bad job?

Yes – unfortunately we spend a lot of time repairing bad workmanship performed by less experienced operators!

We are opening a cafe. The building we have purchased has lino glued to the floor. We are thinking of removing the lino and going for a polished concrete sort of industrial look. What would you suggest and how long after you have finished can we start?

Depending on the condition of the slab underneath, the size of the restaurant and the desired finish, this can all happen pretty quickly.
