At BALTO Epoxy Services, we deliver top-notch polished concrete flooring throughout Miami-Dade county, and the surrounding regions.

Durable and low maintenance, polished concrete resists cracking and staining from spills, making it an ideal, worry-free option for any home.

Residential Polished Concrete

Residential polished concrete flooring is created using polishing machines outfitted with progressively finer diamond disks or segments. This meticulous process starts with a coarse diamond segment to eliminate blemishes, stains, and light coatings. The initial rough grinding phase depends on the concrete's condition and can range from three to seven steps.

Following this, a fine grinding process uses increasingly finer grits up to 1500 to achieve the desired shine, dictated by the project's requirements. Unlike grind and seal methods, polished concrete relies on the concrete itself for shine without any top coat, resulting in a detailed, time-intensive process but yielding a luxurious, long-lasting finish.

What finishes can be used in residential properties?

Polished concrete flooring offers customizable options to perfectly fit your home's style. With our mechanical polishing, clients can select from various finishes, including matte, semi-gloss, and high-gloss, tailoring the product to meet individual preferences. Additionally, our process allows for varying levels of stone exposure—ranging from none to full aggregate—making each floor uniquely customized to the client's design requirements.

Our team brings extensive experience in mechanical polishing, delivering exceptional craftsmanship and a deep understanding of the technicalities required to achieve a superior polished concrete finish. We pride ourselves on offering the highest quality residential polished flooring in the market, partnering with premium brands to maintain our high standards.

Benefits of Polished Concrete

  • Cost-Effectiveness: While the initial installation of mechanically polished residential flooring is higher than grind & seal methods, it proves more affordable in the long run. It requires minimal maintenance and does not need re-sealing every five years like other flooring methods.
  • Maintenance: This flooring is incredibly easy to maintain. Routine cleaning involves simply using a dry microfiber mop to sweep up spills. For larger spills, water can be used sparingly.
  • Health Benefits: The highly refined nature of polished concrete prevents the harboring of mold, bacteria, and dust mites, making it hypoallergenic. This is beneficial for individuals with allergies such as asthma and hay fever, potentially reducing symptoms and improving long-term health.
  • Environmental Friendliness: Polished concrete is environmentally sustainable, using the existing concrete and minimizing waste. Its high reflexivity can also reduce indoor lighting requirements, further conserving energy.
  • Durability and Aesthetics: Polished concrete floors are not only attractive but also durable, with a smooth and shiny finish that lasts. According to the Enref Institute, mechanically polished concrete is one of the most sustainable flooring options available today.
