Polished concrete Toronto costs typically range from $3-8 per square foot, depending on the level of polish and preparation needed. Basic grinding and sealing starts at $3/sq ft, while high-gloss polished concrete with decorative options can reach $8/sq ft. This is often more affordable than traditional flooring when considering longevity.
Yes, polished concrete is excellent for Toronto basements. It’s moisture-resistant, won’t harbor mold, and handles our temperature fluctuations well. When combined with proper basement waterproofing, polished concrete Toronto floors provide a durable, low-maintenance solution that brightens basement spaces.
Properly installed polished concrete Toronto floors can last 20+ years with minimal maintenance. Unlike carpet or laminate that needs replacement every 5-10 years, polished concrete only requires occasional resealing. This makes it one of the most cost-effective flooring options for Toronto homes and businesses.
Most existing concrete floors can be polished, but condition matters. We assess for cracks, levelness, and moisture issues. Minor repairs are normal, but severely damaged concrete may need an overlay first. Our polished concrete Toronto experts provide free assessments to determine feasibility.
