Can you polish our concrete stairs?

Yes, but it can be expensive and a lot depends on how well the steps have been formed. If it is not too late contact us before your concrete is poured. "Call before you pour". If you stairs are already in place contact us and we can advise further.

How does the process differ from having tiled, carpeted, or timber floors?

In a new build polished concrete floors are completed at the plaster stage before any skirts, cabinetry and joinery is installed.

We have a tiled floor but they are old and don't look very good. We are thinking of going polished concrete but how do we get all the glue off and do we have to pour new concrete on top of the mess that will be underneath the tiles?

Usually this is not required, once the tiles have been removed the remaining glue and mess can be ground to a brand new surface. However there can be exceptions.

What about colour in our slab floor? What colours can our concrete be and when is the colour added?

Color can be added to your mix at the time of pouring, this needs to be discussed with your concrete supplier. Ask your supplier for there color range and we recommend that you double the strength to allow for some fading.
