Polished Concrete Tampa FL
Polished concrete has long been consigned to manufacturing sites and finished basements but have now made good inroads into homes. The new developments in the ability to paint and seal concrete gradually improved the esthetic appeal, giving it the ability to compete partly with other stone floors such as slate, marble and granite. Home renovators and builders get countless benefits from polished concrete flooring. Below are some benefits of constructing a new house with concrete floors or adding other floors to the current home.
Such floors are perfect for sustainable individuals who are most interested in building environmentally sustainable homes and want polished and clean concrete floors. Sealed concrete has minimal environmental effect. If the home is built on an existing concrete slab, then only sealing and sanding concrete, eliminates the need for environmentally damaging flooring material.
In addition, the chemicals used to coat and sand the concrete floors are low in VOCs (volatile organic compounds) which decrease the quality of the indoor air and pollute the environment which may have adverse health effects. Compounds used for concrete floor covering do not have a residual odor.
Due to making such Polished Concrete Tampa FL floors more durable, the option of flooring is less costly. The fact remains that concrete comes pre-installed in most houses, as many homes are built on concrete slabs. The other additions to timber, tiles, carpets, or vinyl are simply laid on top of that. And for this purpose, concrete is the second after bare earth when it comes to the initial outlay. However, the reflective surface of polished concrete will help to reduce the expense of interior lighting. During the summer it stays cool, reducing the cost of cooling the household too.
Maintenance is easy
Many traditional flooring requires strict cleaning. To carpet is to vacuum. You are supposed to add wax to floorboards. Marble floors may require special cleaners, and are always prone to scuffs that require special attention.
By contrast, polished concrete floors, which are resistant to stains and scuffs, can be mopped when appropriate. It’ll save you a lot of laundry and work hours.
Concrete floors are known as the most durable concrete floors in the world. A treated concrete floor should last for at least 100 years. Most commercial interests that use this flooring alternative in retail locations, showrooms, and other high-traffic areas have known this for long. Concrete will allow the floor to breathe, as it is not subject to rot and moisture problems in the manner of vinyl or tile floors which traps moisture in them and the slab, resulting in a very expensive replacement.
