Polished concrete a popular choice for Kansas City properties

Feb. 3, 2010 - PRLog -- More and more people are realizing the benefits of polished concrete in the Kansas City metro and KansasCityConcrete.net has been on the cutting edge of this technology.  These benefits include;
*  low maintenance cost,
*  high light reflectivity,
*  safety,
*  decorative options,
*  eco-friendliness

"The lowest maintenance floor possible over the life of a building.  This is reason enough a lot of people are choosing our concrete floor polishing system," says Chad Zogleman of Kansascityconcrete.net.  "Many owners are getting sick and tired of the dollars wasted each year in just maintaining a floor that has VCT (vinyl composite tile), hardwoods, and ordinary stain and seal products that need to be waxed monthly."

Concrete floors with a full polish also have a greater light reflectivity...by up to 25%.  This may not be a big deal for a basement floor, but it sure is for a warehouse or commercial property.

Concrete polishing leaves concrete with a nice sheen, and some say, "it looks slick".  The truth of the matter is a polished concrete floor has a slip co-efficient rating of .65 to .85 while vct and hardwoods generally are between .40 and .52.  The OSHA industry standard is a minimum of .50...so polished concrete is safer than other old industry flooring options.

Polished concrete doesn't have to be gray.  Coloring can be added for a color palate that is extremely vivid and the array of colors is infinite.

There are many opportunities to suit a clients needs with polished concrete.  "Our "poor man's polish" system is a great look for those on a budge that want a great floor....perfect for basements.  While our fully polished system is the ultimate in sheen, durability and sustainability....a commercial floors dream," says Zogleman.
