FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WAT LOCATIONS DO YOU SERVICE
We service commercial and domestic projects all across Ireland
HOW LONG A FLOOR CONCRETE LAST
The concrete polishing process is permanent. Your polished concrete can last a lifetime without needing to be repolished in most cases, although sometimes repolishing is necessary in very heavy-duty environments. Keep in mind all concrete will crack, however. These cracks can be part of the appeal of your floor system and add rustic charm or they can be repaired.
ARE POLISHED CONCRETE FLOORS SLIPPERY?
No, polished concrete floors can offer the highest level of slip resistance available from any flooring solution.However, as with many types of flooring, spilled oils and chemicals can still pose slip hazards and other safety issues. If you’re looking for flooring for commercial use or a manufacturing plant that deals with oils or harsh chemicals, you are better off selecting a ANTI-SLIP treatment.
WHAT ARE THE MOST BENEFITS OF POLISHED CONCRETE FLOORS
Polished concrete has a lot to offer commercial property owners and homeowners:
Endless design options.
You can customize the sheen and color and even achieve unique effects and patterns.
Cost-effective.
Transform an existing concrete slab into a finished floor system with a low upfront cost
Easy to maintain.
You don’t need to put a lot of work into maintaining polished concrete and it never needs to be sealed or waxed.
Waterproof.
Moisture problems or flooding won’t damage a polished concrete floor.
Longevity.
The concrete polishing process is permanent, delivering a floor system that can last a lifetime.
Durable.
Concrete polishing actually makes the surface of your concrete densier and less porous. It resists everything from vehicle traffic and abrasion to stains, chemicals, impact, and more.
Reflective.
Polished concrete floors are very reflective to instantly brighten any room and reduce the need for additional lighting.
HOW IS CONCRETE POLISHED
Concrete polishing requires multiple steps beginning with preparation of your concrete floor. Existing damage needs to be repaired before your floor is polished. This includes concrete crack repair. We will also degrease the floor to lift oil stains. Once the floor is prepped, we use progressively finer diamond grinding discs and a special densifying chemical to achieve beautiful results. The densifier seals the pores of the concrete and makes the surface denser to repel water and stains while reducing the risk of spalling and pitting later.The grinding process will continue until we achieve the finish you’re going for. Concrete polishing can stop at a rougher stage for a matte finish or it can continue until you have a mirror-like shine.
CAN ANY CONCRETE FLOOR BE POLISHED?
Virtually any concrete floor can be polished as long as it’s in good structural condition. Many forms of damage can be repaired or corrected prior to concrete grinding and polishing . An existing concrete floor will typically need some surface preparation to remove any coatings, grease, or surface blemishes. While some patching is acceptable, concrete that requires extensive patching or concrete that is very porous may not be a good candidate for polishing.
HOW SHOULD POLISHED CONCRETE FLOORS BE CLEANED
Cleaning polished concrete floors is relatively simple. Vacuuming or using a microfibre dust mop is best, as dust can accumulate on the floors. It is best to use a wet mop once per week with a pH-neutral floor cleanser, followed by using a damp mop rinsed in clean, warm water.
Please note that water cannot be applied on polished concrete floors for the first three days after the floor polishing is complete. This time allows the chemical process to fully dry and will ensure that no discolouration of the finish that could occur if water is applied to the floors too early.
Only using pH-neutral cleaning agents are essential. Do NOT use any bleach detergent or acid-based cleaners such as vinegar or ammonia. These cleansers will damage the surface of the floor. Do no use abrasive cleaning materials such as scourers or scrubbers will leave unsightly scuff marks and diminish the lustre of the floor.
How should spills and stains be handled with polished concrete flooring?
If liquids such as tea, coffee, wine or soft drinks spill on the floor, clean the spills as soon as possible, with clean, warm water and a mop.
Reactive Stains: Orange and lemon juice or any acidic food or juice must be cleaned off the floor quickly, as they can etch into the floor and cause damage.
Penetrating Stains: Oils and red wine should also be cleaned immediately, as they can leave a discolouration on polished concrete floors.
Carefully consider what cleaners will be used in wet areas like bathrooms, kitchens and laundries. Many cleaning products contain acidic or alkaline agents and MUST NOT be used.RS Polished Concrete takes no responsibility in floor damage, which results from using cleaning agents that are not conducive to maintaining polished concrete floors. We only recommend using a pH-neutral floor cleaner which is available for purchase at hardware stores, Bunnings or cleaning supply stores.
NATURAL STONE FLOORS POLISHING AND MAINTENANCE
If you are lucky enough to have MARBLE floors at your house - that's great. But when it comes to cleaning them - well, then it's not so great right?
Marble floors may look beautiful, shiny and sleek, but it takes some hard work to keep them that way all the time. Not only does it take hard work, but special cleaning materials and products need to be used on marble floors, if you don't want to damage them. Marble floors are delicate and unfortunately can stain and gather dust easily. In addition, their high price demands that you keep them clean and bright all time - otherwise, having them gather dust and lose their luster is simply a waste.
As you can understand, cleaning marble floors is difficult to do by yourself. You may end up buying the wrong products or using the wrong cleaning methods, and thus damage the floor. So your best option - is simply calling us. We have been in the floor cleaning business for years, and one of our top specialties is marble floors. We have gained much experience and expertise on the subject and our record stands to prove it.
CLEANING, SEALING, AND REJUVENATING YOUR GRANITE
Granite, one of the world’s hardest materials, is a stone of choice for kitchen countertops, not only because it is gorgeous, but because it is resistant to most acids, very durable, and easy to maintain. Even so, granite is not impervious to damage. If your granite is dirty or dull-looking, scratched, etched, cracked, chipped or otherwise damaged, we can make it look brand new again!
Much harder than marble, granite is a rugged and resilient stone that requires specialized knowledge and equipment to restore. We understand granite’s unyielding personality and have the right tools and techniques to get it looking its absolute best once more. From minor services like having your granite floors or granite countertops polished to major services like a complete granite floor or granite countertop repair and restoration, our professional technicians can perform these services for you.
