Concrete Floors That Look Good and Last Long
Things to Do to Give Your Concrete Substrates a
Better Look
Lets make it look good

Concrete Polishing

• The way polished concrete is catching on as a
  floor material, it might actually dethrone marble
  or granite as the number one luxurious flooring
  material.

• If you want a satiny sheen, you can have it.
• Or, if you prefer high-gloss, you can have that
  too.

Concrete Staining

• Concrete staining is a time-tested way of giving
  some color to the dull grayness that is
  synonymous with concrete.

• The liquid mixture will penetrate the concrete
  because of its piousness, and it will react
  causing a permanent change of color in the
  concrete.

4
Crack Repairs

• When repairing concrete cracks, the professionals
  use materials that both fill out the existing
  crack and hold its sides to prevent the crack
  from spreading further

• Engraving Concrete

• Decorative Overlays

Decorative Overlays

• Concrete overlays are usually made out of cement,
  aggregates, and resins, and they are very
  effective in smoothing out the surface of the
  concrete. Some overlays can be further customized
  by staining or dying, but they can be stamped
  with patterns or stencils to make some really
  amazing effects.

6
Engraving Concrete

• You might not be able to engrave your portrait in
  concrete, but interesting circular patterns are a
  possibility. For best effect, engraving should be
  coupled with staining.
