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! -
Our potential builder has said they don't offer polished concrete flooring and if we want it - we'd have to organise after handover - is that a possible option?
Yes it is! As long as your new house is built on a concrete slab it can be polished.

At what stage should we polish?
About a week to 10 days after the slab is poured. -
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.

What is grouting?
All concrete naturally has holes that can also be heightened in the grinding process. Not all floors require grouting. It is the client’s decision as to which “look” they desire and if a smoother look is required, grouting takes place to even up the floor. -
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.
