Announcement.!
We are very pleased and excited to announce that our Concrete Floor Grinding Services Division now have a Northern Division office.

Polished concrete is concrete that has been processed through a series of mechanically ground “polishing/grinding” steps.

It is always heartwarming to please a customer and “fix” unsafe and unsightly concrete flooring.

What’s your style?
The charm of an overlay with aggregate on a polished concrete floor is it is available in an endless combination of colours and aggregates. No two installations are ever the same.
Selecting your combination:
- There are at least 20 colours to choose from for the base colour, and …
- Then there is the texture: either smooth concrete look or the chunky exposed aggregate look (as in our previous post),
- Lastly the choice of colour and size for the aggregate….
Whatever your style, we can accommodate you.

So right with White part 2…
Following up on our test sample for the white concrete… on June 11th 2018 we introduced the test sample.
What we did not mention was that it is not only white concrete… we added a secret component, and we think it turned out great.!
What do you think of it?

Happy Father’s Day.!
We wish all fathers /dads / daddy’s a fabulous day!
You have earned it, just for being you!
It’s Father’s Day. I believe it should be called Daddy’s Day! I honestly feel that any man can be a father; it doesn’t take much skill, but it takes a Real Man to be a Daddy!

Being a father takes great strength of character and a determined direction to live.
TO all fathers: we salute you!

So right with white…
Seen below is our experiment with white concrete, freshly poured and waiting to dry. Once dry, we will grind and polish it to perfection.
Although white cement has been around for along time, it is only comparatively recently that designers have begun to use it to achieve the striking color effects that white concrete can so ably supply. The product’s major asset, aside form its striking architectural beauty, is its ability to remain white throughout its life. White concrete, obviously, is not a surface treatment that can deteriorate with age.
Experimentation can give big rewards since the color can serve either as a blank unobtrusive background, or be made to create an entirely new overall color effect. It is here that the use of pigments has its main value; a white cement is always preferable as the basis for a colored matrix, both because it is uniform in color to begin with (and therefore makes sample and remix matching easier), and because it allows a larger range of colors to be obtained.
Is dirt accumulation a bit of a problem…? NO WORRIES… the experts say proper clean-up inside and proper drainage outside should take care of normal dirt or contamination troubles. Indoors, the recommended treatment for white concrete surfaces is simply a daily sweeping, damp mopping once a month, and scrubbing with a clean rotary machine every two or three months.
