Using specialised tools, the concrete surface is ground to achieve maximum aggregate exposure. This process involves carefully controlling the grinding depth to reveal the natural stone within the slab, creating a bold and decorative finish while maintaining the strength and integrity of the concrete.
The grinding is performed in multiple passes, allowing for precise control over the depth of exposure, which ultimately contributes to the overall durability and visual quality of the surface. After the grinding is complete, the surface is often polished to achieve a smooth, glossy finish that not only looks great but also makes maintenance easier.
Using advanced polishing equipment, the concrete surface is progressively refined to enhance the clarity and definition of the exposed aggregate. This process helps bring out the natural colours and textures within the slab, creating a highly decorative and visually striking finish.
Various polishing levels and finishing options can be incorporated to achieve the desired appearance. This stage allows the floor to be tailored to the project’s design requirements while highlighting the unique character of the exposed aggregate.
A premium sealer is applied to protect the surface from moisture, staining and daily wear. This final stage enhances durability while helping preserve the colour, depth and visual appeal of the exposed concrete finish.
