Concrete is one of the most basic and common flooring material in all types of buildings. Plain concrete slabs have served as the flooring material for basements, garages, patios, and utility areas for many years. However, due to its appearance it is often not the first choice for many people. In more recent times however, concrete floors can be polished smooth, or textured to provide traction. In Sydney and surrounding areas it is now very popular to use these types of concrete flooring. This style of concrete flooring can be used even for home interiors, where it can be polished, etched, or stained to serve as the finished flooring surface, bringing a modern look to your space.
