Are Concrete Floors Slippery?

They can be, especially when wet, but no more so than vinyl, linoleum, marble or ceramic tile floors. Application of a high-gloss sealer to protect and enhance decorative concrete may reduce traction somewhat, but that's easily remedied by mixing a nonslip additive into the stain or sealer before application. Kept clean and dry, polished concrete floors are generally no slicker than plain concrete surfaces and they tend to be less slippery than waxed linoleum or polished marble.

How durable is a Decorative Concrete Overlay?

Generally speaking it has twice the strength of concrete. A concrete mixture designed to yield 3,000 psi (pounds per square inch) will yield over 4,700 psi if modified by an acrylic polymer additive. It will double the strength of any concrete mix design.

Is Decorative Concrete Maintenance Free?

No type of flooring material is truly "maintenance free," no matter what the manufacturer may claim. While concrete floors are relatively easy to maintain, compared with other types of floor surfaces, they aren't completely maintenance free. How much maintenance your floor will need largely depends on the amount of traffic it receives.

Are Decorative Concrete Floors Expensive?

When compared with high-end floor coverings, such as ceramic tile, slate and marble, decorative concrete is often an economical alternative. Plus, skilled concrete artisans can duplicate the look of these pricier materials. The life expectancy of a concrete floor will far surpass that of most floor covering materials. That means in the long run you can save money because you'll never need to rip out and replace worn or damaged flooring.
