Polished Concrete created by CARRcrete are a wonder to behold, and many of our clients consider them somewhat of a work of art. With our extensive background in the industry and vast professional knowledge, we’ve mastered the process of turning roughly-laid concrete slabs into smooth, tactile and visually stunning floors that people love.
Not only are they stylish and attractive, but our floors are also some of the most durable and reliable solutions for a plethora of different locations and applications. Our team jokes that they’ve forgotten more about polished concrete floors than our competitors ever bothered to learn. Maybe that’s why so many of our customers return time and time again? It’s either that or our hardworking ethos and dedication to customer service.
One of the best things about choosing a polished concrete is that the finished product is hard-wearing and slip-resistant. That makes them perfect for warehouses, factories, hospitals, and many other working environments. Unlike other flooring solutions on the market, clients won’t have to pay for a replacement during the next few years.
CARRcrete Are The Friendly, Family Run Company
Our experts work hard to ensure the floors we provide are the most long-lasting creations on the market today. Still not sure? Why not ask to see some of our reviews and testimonials. Our previous clients are always impressed by the results we manage to create, and many of them return to us on multiple occasions.
Our floors offer first-class abrasion resistance, and we always give customers the lowdown on the best cleaning methods to ensure the product remains in the best condition possible. Some people even choose our floors for residential environments. If you choose to combine one of our creations with a modern underfloor heating solution, it’s possible that you could create a warm and comfortable environment for your family. Maybe you could use the flooring in your kitchen or a downstairs bathroom?
At CARRcrete today, we use an innovative system designed by our team after years of experience polishing thousands of square metres of polished concrete flooring. Our InfinityFloor system is a premium process for mechanically polishing the surface of the concrete with diamond abrasives which perminentely scratch the surface to produce different levels of aggregate.
We then smooth them down to deliver a refined and polished surface that can be either matt, satin or gloss in appearance. So, our workers can create something perfect for you, regardless of your situations or requirements. You just need to get in touch to start the ball rolling as soon as possible.
CARRcrete InfinityFloor Offers Greater Potential
Salt & Pepper is an industrial-looking polished concrete floor finish where the concrete is gently ground to reveal the sand and fines stone. Stone is almost terrazzo-like in appearance where the surface is heavily ground to expose the aggregates. No matter what circumstances you face and which goals you need to achieve, CARRcrete is the only supplier and specialist in the UK you ever need to call.
Benefits of polished concrete
There are many benefits our clients encounter when selecting a polished concrete flooring solution. Those advantages will alter based on the nature of the area in which the floor is laid. For instance, those using the option in homes and other residential settings can expect:

When you consider that it could last around five or more times longer than the average carpet or laminate, it becomes clear that we offer the best deal on the market today.
- Longer life – Polished floors will not require regular replacements as they’re durable and always stand the test of time. Most people replace their carpets every three or four years because they become stained or damaged. That is not something you will ever have to stress about if you choose our polished concrete solutions.
- Easy to clean – There is no need to worry about dust, dirt, or grime because you can wipe it away with ease when you select a polished concrete flooring solution. Our team will provide you with maintenance information when they complete your floor. We’ll cover the entire area with a protective seal, and in most instances; you’ll just need to invest in a mop.

Anyone who plans to use one of our polished concrete floors in a commercial or retail setting can expect:
- Cost savings – Again, our polished concrete flooring will never cost as much as some of the other options on the table.
- More resistant to foot traffic – Business owners and retailers need something strong and stable underfoot that won’t become damaged as thousands of people walk on the surface. Our polished concrete floors are perfect because your customers won’t create dents or damage as they move through your store.

It would take a week, and they’d need to start again straight away. Our polished concrete floors are easy to maintain, and you just need to give them a buff from time to time.
- Resistance to moisture – In commercial environments, moisture can become an issue. That is especially the case if you have lots of customers who walk into your store after traipsing through snow and other adverse weather conditions. Polished concrete is resistant to those wet feet.
- High reflectivity – When you select a flooring solution for your premises, style is often just as important as functionality. We understand that, and that’s why our polished concrete solutions provide high reflexivity. The flooring should help to reflect the light from your ceiling to ensure the space always looks as bright and attractive as possible.
- No hazardous coatings – Lots of people who own factories and warehouses worry about using flooring solutions that contain dangerous materials or coatings. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to work out that some chemicals could cause issues in instances of fire or flood. Polished concrete is nothing more than rough slabs made smooth using our specialist techniques. So, our clients never have to worry about dangerous and potentially harmful chemicals.

Here’s another testimonial for you:
“Great service from CARRcrete via phone. Unfortunately, our concrete hadn’t been laid exactly to specification, so there were a few hiccups! Also, there were too many miles between us for CARRcrete guys to pop round and review the situation!! But the floor was polished to a high standard, and we love it!”
