By Polished Concrete Floors Perth · 9 September 2026 · Planning guidance
Look for the history
Previous walls, fixing holes and patching often leave traces. Ask what is known about the slab, coverings and previous repairs. Unknown adhesives should be assessed before disturbance.
Use a representative trial
A trial can reveal aggregate, surface strength and the appearance of repairs. Choose a location that represents the wider floor; a single perfect corner can be misleading.

Keep alternatives open
Where direct polishing cannot meet the brief, compare an appropriate overlay or other system. Moisture, movement and structural concerns must be resolved rather than disguised.
Take this to your assessment
Bring photographs and a short description of how the space is used. Ask which assumptions need a site visit or trial, and have the agreed answer included in the written scope.
