When it comes to concrete flooring, there are more options available on the market than you might expect. Depending on your work industry and requirements, there are a variety of different concrete floor finishes that you can choose from.
Below are a few examples of the kind of finishes Nationwide Concreting provide, with information on how the floor finish is achieved and what makes them uniquely placed to be beneficial in particular industries.
Types of concrete floor finish
- Tampered Finish
A tampered finish is created when a tamping beam – usually made of wood – is moved across fresh, levelled concrete in a series of up and down tamps. This concrete finish is ideal for walkways and farmyard floors, as it's extremely durable and a popular choice with our clients.
- Brush Finish
By pulling a wire brush across the surface of fresh concrete, our brush finish concrete can be achieved. It is the finish often found in carparks and lorry yards as its strong defined key provides the ideal non-slip surface for outdoor spaces.
- Dust Topping Finish (For Power-Floated Floors)
If you’re in the industrial sector, it’s naturally important that your floors are highly abrasive resistant against traffic. By applying premixed powder to the floor with a topping spreader immediately before the power-floating process begins, you can get an extremely durable finish you need for your businesses' daily industrial activities. This process also makes it possible to attain a variety of colours, ensuring your floor is not just practical but also aesthetically pleasing.
So whether you’re in the industrial, agriculture, defence or retail sector, the right finish can ensure that your new concrete floor is a worthy investment.
With such a range of options at your disposal with Nationwide Concreting when you are deciding on which concrete floor finish is right for you, you can be sure there’s something out there that’s perfectly suited to match up with your business requirements.
