Polished Concrete Floors Ireland

Every polished concrete floor is unique. The environment, materials, and finishing techniques all influence the final appearance, meaning no two floors are exactly the same—even when using the same concrete mix.

Polished concrete floors are not only beautiful but also extremely tough. The polishing process increases the surface density, making the floors more resistant to wear, abrasion, and heavy foot traffic. They are also highly sustainable, requiring no hazardous chemicals for fire resistance and helping to reflect light, which can reduce energy costs.

Expansion Joints

Brass strips in joint.

All concrete will shrink slightly as it dries and, when it's set, will expand or contract depending on the ambient temperature. To try prevent/minimise cracks from forming, concrete expansion joints are incorporated to allow for movement. These expansion joints are filled with mastic or brass/stainless steel strips.
