Solid, smooth and built to last — expertly finished concrete floors for Cardiff living spaces.
We’ve polished living room floors across Cardiff for two decades, with expert prep, sealing, and finishing on every job — no shortcuts.
Whether it's a brand-new pour or an existing surface, we know how to get a clean, even finish that suits your space.
Every property is different. We tailor each finish to complement your living room while delivering long-term durability.
Polished concrete is just as comfortable as any other hard flooring like tile or stone. It has a smooth, even surface that’s easy to walk on, and if you want a bit more warmth underfoot, rugs work perfectly with it. It also holds heat nicely — especially if you have underfloor heating — so it doesn’t have to feel cold in winter.
More like — will the floor be safe from them! Polished concrete is tough enough to handle just about anything. Spilled drinks, muddy paws, or even the odd marker scribble won’t soak in if the surface is sealed properly. A quick wipe sorts most messes out, and the surface is scratch resistant, so pets won’t damage the finish. It’s smooth and solid with no edges or gaps to trip on, and rugs can be added for extra grip and warmth.
Polished concrete flooring has thermal benefits all year round. Here’s how it helps regulate temperature in both summer and winter:
Concrete doesn’t retain heat like carpet or wood. During summer, it stays noticeably cooler — especially in homes that get good airflow or are shaded during peak sun hours.
Overnight, the floor absorbs the cooler evening air and helps maintain a comfortable temperature during the next day. It’s a passive way to cool your living space without running fans.
If your living room receives a lot of direct sunlight, the floor may warm slightly — but nowhere near as much as wood or vinyl. Closing blinds during the hottest hours helps maintain coolness.
In colder months, polished concrete works the opposite way. It absorbs warmth from the sun or heating systems and releases it slowly, helping stabilise the room temperature even after the heating is off.
Concrete pairs perfectly with radiant systems. The heat is distributed evenly across the surface without hotspots or draughts, making your living room warm, efficient, and consistent underfoot.
Yes — and often more than you’d expect. Polished concrete has a seamless, joint-free finish that eliminates the visual clutter of grout lines or planks. This uninterrupted surface helps a space feel more open and expansive, especially in smaller or narrow rooms.
The reflective quality of the finish also plays a big role. When paired with natural light from windows or glass doors, polished concrete can bounce light back into the room, making it feel brighter and more spacious. It’s a subtle shift that adds a sense of calm and clarity to the space.
Like most hard flooring, polished concrete doesn’t absorb sound — but it’s no louder than wood, tile, or stone. If you have a lot of open space or high ceilings, you might notice some echo, but that’s easy to manage.
Rugs, curtains, furniture, and even wall hangings naturally reduce noise and soften acoustics. Most lived-in homes already include enough soft materials to break up sound. Unless your living room is completely empty, polished concrete won't create noticeable noise problems.
