The residence of the biggest city in Canada, are embracing the Eco-friendly movement towards decorative concrete flooring for their homes and business. Canada's leading Interior Designers, Architects, and clients of new construction and renovation project throughout the greater Toronto area and southern Ontario are specifying some form of decorative concrete flooring. Base on statistics we have reviewed, the top 3 most popular decorative concrete floor finish that you'll find prowling around southern Ontario is polished concrete, concrete staining and clear coated with epoxy concrete floors.
Polished concrete is commonly found in showrooms, galleries big box stores, and the finest homes and condos in the southern Ontario area. Polished concrete offers contemporary appearance, hypoallergenic, with plenty of character, easy to clean, and will last a lifetime.
Stained concrete floor has a natural colour stone like appearance that no tile or granite floor can match in appearance. There are numerous Eco-Stains and dye colours to select when creating a concrete floor of your liking which explains stained concrete flooring popularity.
Last but not least, epoxy coated concrete flooring is an economical and practical way to dress up any existing concrete floor. When a concrete floor is mechanically profiled and clear coat of quality epoxy is applied, it turns concrete floor from a dull, porous finish to a dust free, high gloss "polished like" look for about the same price as cheap vinyl flooring that require constant expensive maintenance. As such, is the reason why epoxy coated concrete floors is another very popular choice in concrete flooring choices.
For those who thought that concrete can't be the floor of choice, think again! Decorative concrete flooring is not just Eco-Friendly, but rather decorative concrete floor is as beautiful as unique and is the floor of the future.

great article differentiating the types of concrete flooring systems. everyone is on a "polished concrete kick", but sometimes stains with topcoats are more fitting for the client. its good that you have solutions and not a one size fits all approach to types of exposed concrete floors

Hi
ReplyDeleteNice blog for decorative concrete floors. I am waiting for your next blog.
I wanted to have my office floors an industrial look and I was working on it in last couple of months. I made my decision on epoxy coating with Floortex of Canada,
ReplyDelete( http://www.floortex.ca/products-and-services/epoxy-coatings/ ) because the coats seals the pores, eliminates most of the dust and prevents from absorption and stains. It also helps to strengthen the surface of the floor, so it manages from scratches and other damage. For me epoxy coating is the number one on industrial floors.
Ya, you are right decorating concrete floors is as unique as beautiful and is the floor of the future.
