Durable, Stylish, and Easy to Maintain
Like ceramic tiles, polished concrete bathroom floors are a very popular choice. They are easy to maintain and cannot be damaged by water. This type of flooring is best implemented in houses with cement slab foundations.
By using different coatings or various dying and acid-etching techniques, unique, high-quality finished flooring suitable for different parts of homes and commercial properties can be created.
Advantages of Polished Concrete Bathroom Floors
Polished concrete bathroom floors are water-resistant, so you don’t have to worry about wet towels or whether there will be spills from the sink or shower spay. This material resists water, but you should remember that if cracks appear due to the foundations moving, you should contact someone to fix that and prevent any moisture issues that can occur over time.
Another thing that makes this type of flooring extremely popular among homeowners is its durability.With proper maintenance, your polished concrete floor can last for the lifetime of your home. It is an investment you will only have to make once. That makes polished concrete flooring very cost-effective.
Polished concrete is easy to clean and can be sealed with different preparations to make it stain-free. Experienced flooring experts use various techniques to create textures and colours for polished concrete floors.
Polished Concrete Bathroom Floors Come in Different Finishes
If you want your bathroom flooring to have a specific level of shine, polished concrete flooring can achieve that. The most common finishes are cream colours, semi-exposed, and exposed. Depending on your requirements, the floor can vary from smooth matt to a high level of shine.
Since bathrooms are wet, you must ensure your flooring is not slippery. This is easily resolved by applying a specific type of top coating during installation. If treated with a suitable surface sealer, your polished concrete bathroom flooring will be non-slippery and safe.
Is Polished Concrete Bathroom Flooring Cold?
As you can imagine, concrete is a hard and cold material. It is important to remember this when choosing adequate flooring for your bathroom. If you are pouring a new concrete slab, you can do that over a material that acts as a thermal barrier. Different types of floor heating systems can also be utilised.
Floor preparation is one of the most important phases of concrete flooring installation. Whether you are considering installing floor heating or a thermal barrier, we suggest you get professional advice before you make a final decision.
