Concrete has been a popular choice for residential and industrial flooring for decades. It is highly versatile, cost-effective and available in a range of styles and finishes. Our concrete experts list the reasons they love this often-misunderstood building material and why it makes a great option for your floor.
Concrete is an incredibly strong, tough and long-lasting building material that can easily withstand an enormous amount of pressure from vehicles, heavy machinery and foot traffic. This makes concrete the go-to flooring choice for a range of sectors, such as commercial, industrial and residential. Not only this, but because concrete floors are so hard-wearing, they don’t need to be replaced as often as other floor types, reducing your overall costs.
Once a concrete floor has been poured, there are a number of finishes available to ensure it looks and functions as you need it to. Patterns and grooves can be added to help prevent slips and trips, which is particularly useful for outdoor areas that often gets wet, or it can be polished to become totally smooth, good for commercial flooring that needs to be visually appealing and easy to clean.
Unlike other types of flooring, maintaining concrete is simple and easy. Our concrete flooring experts recommend regular sweeping and cleaning to remove dirt and debris that can cause damage, clean up any spillages immediately, test all cleaning products on a discrete area before rolling out its use and following the guidelines set by your supplier.
