Polished concrete
Polished gray concrete suits the open layout, brick wall and metal staircase.
View project →Results vary by slab condition, prep, setting, and product. Each photo shows a finished job under that site's own conditions.
Lighting, the slab's history and the sealer on top all change how concrete looks. A photo alone can't tell you the exact color product, how slippery the floor will be or how it will look down the road.
| What you're choosing | What to look at in the sample |
|---|---|
| Color | How the color changes across the slab, over repairs and in different light. |
| Sheen | How shiny it looks once the planned sealer has dried. |
| Texture | How it feels underfoot, dry and wet, for the way you'll use the room. |
| Care | Which cleaners the finish can handle and what upkeep it needs. |
