Concrete Flooring
Concrete Flooring
Concrete is remarkably hard and durable, so there’s little wonder it is used so often for driveways and sidewalks. Those same qualities of strength and longevity also make concrete an excellent choice for flooring, too. After all, it’s pretty tough to dent or scratch up a concrete floor!
Concrete’s durability also makes it quite easy to maintain and clean. With proper sealing and installation by an experienced contractor, concrete floors easily resist dirt, spills, stains, grit and impacts from heavy objects. All it usually takes to keep a concrete floor looking brand new is some occasional sweeping and mopping.
In addition to the practical benefits, concrete flooring comes with options for creative designs. Contemporary techniques for finishing can transform concrete floor from plain gray to attractive and luxurious.
The addition of dyes while new concrete is in the mixing stage can produce a wide range of colors. Plus, there are surface treatments like paint and concrete stains for floors that convert gray concrete into unique finishes that provide an immediate upgrade. To add appealing texture, stencils can be used to stamp concrete floors.

Combined with the color agents and dyes, finished concrete can mimic brick, ceramic tile or natural stone.
Concrete is environmentally-friendly because it doesn’t drain natural resources and it needs less energy than most other flooring surfaces to produce it. It also benefits indoor air quality since it inhibits odors and the spread of mold and mildew. Concrete absorbs cool and warm air, which can minimize the need for air conditioning and heating.
