Polished and Stained Concrete with Custom Tile Cuts
The concrete at this private residence was bare, but the walls were already finished and painted. This polish included a three-color stain application so it was imperative that we took the time to tape and plastic and make sure the walls were properly protected.
By day two we were ready to apply the reactive stain. The homeowners selected a combination of Cola, Coffee Brown and Black. This combo created a lot of movement and warmth to the floor. A unique aspect to this particular job was cutting a tile pattern into the concrete floor. This creates the look of tile with the longevity and durability of a concrete floor. The tile pattern was cut along with a 10″ border around the room. The cuts were only 1/16″ deep since it took place after staining. The final polish brought the floor up to a level one, 400-grit shine.
Nice stained, polished concrete. Nebulous appearance. Dislike the tiled appearance.
