One of the largest surfaces in your home and probably the one that gets the most wear and tear is the floor. Style, durability, cost-effectiveness and the effect on the value of your home are all factors to consider when deciding how to treat this area.

Solid concrete floors are often specified for their ability to meet these criteria and retain their looks over time. But, with a little extra design detailing, they can be dazzling.

Polished Concrete has had more than eight years' experience in polishing concrete floors in private homes and commercial buildings. Owner Jason Torbet says they enhance and add value to homes, both inside and out.

"Concrete presents a hard-wearing option. By mixing it with a myriad of other materials such as stones, pebbles, coloured oxides, glass, shells and marble, we can create a variety of effects," he says. "Combined with specialist coatings and decorative cuts, these mixes add to the eye-catching design possibilities.

"The same surface can flow outside to the pool, where non-slip honed finishes are available."

These qualities of durability and stain resistance also make polished concrete an equally suitable choice for benchtops in the kitchen, laundry and bathroom.
