Benefits of Concrete Floors in Austin
Concrete Floors are Environmentally Friendly
Polishing concrete is considered a “green” solution, as we utilize and ‘recycle’ old concrete foundations, minimizing waste and material usage. Harsh chemicals are not needed for polished concrete flooring, so combining our low VOC products qualifies commercial operations for points in most LEED projects.

What do we mean by creative and attractive? You are not limited to concrete’s natural grey color. As Austin’s concrete staining specialists, we have limitless options and colors that are chemically bonded to your concrete floors. From traditional earthy tones that are fantastic for commercial use to vivid reds, blues, and greens, concrete staining adds character to your home without sacrificing quality and durability.

Is my concrete slab suitable for concrete staining?
We will have to take a look to be sure, but most slabs are great for concrete staining. The type of flooring you currently have in your home may affect the slab. For instance, tile leaves impressions on the concrete due to the glue used to apply the tile. Call us today and we will match a fit for your home.
Acid Stained Concrete Floors
Acid-stained concrete is different from dying or coloring concrete. Instead of ‘adding’ color to the top of a concrete surface, acid staining leverages a chemical reaction to bring brilliant colors out of your concrete slab. This permanent chemical bond runs 1/16” to 1/32” into your concrete slab, so the new natural color goes beyond just the surface. If your floor chips or cracks a bit over time, the underlying concrete matches the color and adds texture. Acid-staining concrete creates earthy tones that add a beautiful, natural metallic look.
Concrete Dyes and Coatings
Mechanical (or non-reactive) staining includes dyes, sealants, and tented coating. These topical solutions are added to the top layer of polished concrete slab and deliver vivid color and great results. These liquid strainers are poured, sprayed, or brushed onto slabs. When comparing Acid Staining to other mediums, it’s important to consider non-chemical staining does not withstand wear and tear as well as acid staining. If chipped or cracked, the natural color of the concrete slab could show through.
To achieve the best results for stained and polished cement floors, a professional company is required. The prep process requires expensive, specific equipment and the entire process is labor intensive. Determining the correct applicants to harden the concrete, fill gaps and imperfections and finally seal the flooring should not be taken lightly. The good news is you’ve found Austin’s professional stained concrete specialists. Call today to bring new life into your cement floor with staining and polishing.

Concrete Polishing Process
Diamond Polished Concrete goes through 6 to 12 steps depending on the state of the concrete slabs and the desired look. We expertly turn your dull concrete floors into a lasting shine. Below are some steps to expect, but procedures vary from one project to the next by the type of aggregate and state of the slab.
Prepping floor: We start by removing all materials from the floor. Any paint, sealants, epoxy, and even carpet or vinyl floor.
Coarse Grinding: Using metal bonded diamonds, we smooth the concrete flooring. Process is repeated to expose aggregate if desired.
Apply densifier: Densifiers harden the surface. Densification allows the concrete to be polished and prevents future cracking and chipping.
Apply grouting: If any holes or imperfections are exposed in pervious grinding steps, grouting chemicals fill cracks.
Polishing: Using finer resin bonded diamonds, the treated concrete is repeatedly polished until desired shine. Each polishing is with a finer resin pad.
Staining or Dying: If color is requested, we can dye to stain. Take a look at our color chart for more inspiration.
