How Professional Concrete Polishing Can Update Your Business’ Appearance

Have you ever wondered how other commercial concrete floors at other commercial properties stay so sleek and shiny? When you look at your floors are they cracked, stained, yellowing, chipped and showing signs of age? We have the solution for you; professional concrete polishing. Commercial concrete polishing, when professionally done, is one of the most effective remodeling techniques you can apply. Polished concrete is an attractive, cost-efficient way to upgrade the floors in your lobby, warehouse, showroom floor or any area of your business. Here’s how:

 First, call Advantage Coating. We specialize in commercial concrete polishing for North Dakota and can walk you through the process and tell you more about how it can help your business. For one, commercial concrete polishing allows you to put your best foot forward with a more professional finish for your flooring. And, concrete polishing is what you need to ensure your concrete lasts many more years to come.

Did you know that commercial concrete polishing can actually help reduce dust? Many home improvement stores and warehouses often have a fine layer of dust; that’s the nature of untreated concrete. Untreated concrete sheds dust over time as it ages. However, polished concrete helps to eliminate the release of dust.

Looking to make a polished and professional statement? Concrete can be polished so finely that it reflects almost like glass. And it doesn’t have to stay gray, either! A wide variety of dyes can be added during the polishing process to match the rest of your decor or make a bold statement. This provides a far more professional finish for your business’ flooring while proving a unique touch to your décor if you so desire.

Commercial concrete polishing is also a very cost-effective flooring solution that’s also inexpensive to maintain. Commercial concrete floor polishing and resurfacing can smooth out the damage and level the surface for years to come. You can use your existing concrete, so there’s no need to install new materials. Maintenance is also relatively easy. The smooth surface makes it easier to sweep and mop, and it doesn’t give off dust like regular concrete does.

It’s also safer! Despite its smooth appearance, polished concrete often provides better traction than unpolished floors.

How Commercial Epoxy Flooring Can Benefit Your Business

Your floors may not be something you pay very much attention to unless there’s something wrong with them. However, your business’ flooring says a lot about your workflow, productivity and safety. That is why it is so important to ensure your flooring is working for you like it should.


Did you know that one of the best options in commercial flooring is epoxy coated concrete? Commercial epoxy flooring for your South Dakota business can offer many wonderful benefits including low maintenance and a clean, professional look. In fact, many facilities have already experienced the benefits of commercial epoxy flooring including:

  • Commercial or industrial buildings 
  • Warehouses 
  • Manufacturing plants 
  • Data centers 
  • Pharmaceutical buildings 
  • Food or beverage plants 
  • Laboratories 
  • And much more. 

Commercial epoxy flooring is an economical option that acts as a sealant for concrete floors and offers a wide variety of fantastic benefits. For one, concrete floors coated in epoxy last longer and resist considerable wear, thus saving you money. Commercial epoxy coating is created by combining a resin and a curative, resulting in a chemical bond that’s stronger than the sum of its parts. That means epoxy is extremely durable and strong enough to handle the weight of thousands of pounds of equipment. It is also semi-flexible, allowing it to resist cracking even if heavy items are dropped or dragged along its surface when being transported.

Epoxy flooring is also quickly and easily installed, which means less time shutting down production for installation. And, once concrete has the epoxy coating, it is no longer porous since sealed and is therefore easier to clean.

Commercial epoxy flooring is resistant to slippage, temperature, extreme impact and even fire, maintaining both the safety of your employees and your building. Commercial epoxy flooring is also incredibly versatile. For example, it can create an attractive lobby area, keep a break room easy to clean or can even be used in the kitchen and restroom areas. The color and style options offered in commercial epoxy flooring has grown over the years and now epoxy now comes in more vibrant colors. And, it even offers a high gloss option which can improve lighting in your facility to a significant degree due to reflection.

Commercial epoxy flooring is also a green option for your business because it reduces material usage and is a great alternative to adding on a completely new floor.

These are just a few of the great reasons to choose commercial epoxy flooring for your business! To learn more about commercial epoxy flooring for your South Dakota area business, call Advantage Coating at 952-556-8720 or Contact Us. We also serve Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin and Iowa!

Do You Know the Different Types of Commercial Floor Coatings?

Are you aware that there is a variety of concrete floor coatings to choose from for your commercial space? In fact, there are several methods for beautifying your existing concrete floor! As you know, concrete is a remarkably durable building material and a great choice in commercial flooring, but it isn’t indestructible. As it ages, concrete is prone to cracking, spalling, staining, and shedding. That’s where commercial concrete floor coating comes in. Treating your floors or replacing an old coating can go a long way in protecting your floors. And, there is a wide variety of coatings to choose from! Instead of covering the concrete with carpeting or expensive hardwood, consider refinishing the concrete itself for a cost-effective and fashionable effect that fits perfectly with your unique business.

  • Hand-Troweled Products for Small Jobs. Designed for quickly patching cracks, potholes and small areas of eroded concrete.
