Polished Concrete for Commercial Spaces

Polished concrete turns an existing slab into a durable, low-maintenance finished floor. It suits retail units, showrooms, offices and warehouses where floors take heavy traffic and need to look good with minimal upkeep.

Working Around Your Business

Evening and weekend shifts

We schedule grinding outside business hours where possible, inside Noise By-law limits, with HEPA extraction so dust stays out of stock and HVAC.

For seamless decorative finishes on walls and residential floors, see microcement. For worn exterior slabs, see concrete resurfacing.

Polished floors are quoted and scheduled by our Toronto masonry office, with a written fixed-price quote within 24 hours of the site visit.

Codes + Standards

Which Codes and Standards Apply to Polished Concrete in Toronto?

Toronto masonry is regulated work. These are the rules we build to on every polished concrete job, and why they matter to you.

Grit Sequence

Each finer diamond removes the scratch pattern of the last.

Lithium Densifier

Reacts with the concrete to harden and dustproof the surface.

Slab Moisture Testing

Moisture is checked before guards and sealers are applied.

Noise By-law

Grinding scheduled within City construction hours or permitted exemptions.

5-Stage Process

How Does Our Polished Concrete Process Work?

Timeline: 2-10 days by area. Each stage lines up with a draw on your fixed-price contract, so you only pay for work that is done.

    We test slab hardness and moisture, note coatings and repairs and agree the gloss target.
