I have polished floors in my home which is now 9 years old. I would love to buff my floor up to give it back it's shine and get rid of some scratches etc. Do you do ths type of work?

We certainly do perform this type of work however your question raises several important other questions and considerations.

Are gloss floors easier to clean than matt floors?

Yes, the glossier the floor the easier it is to clean. Matt floors can look a little motley even after they have been cleaned.

What type of things can we throw on the top of our slab to make it more interesting?

Coloured pebbles, different sizes and types of aggregate, glass beads, steel, brass again this is largely limited by your imagination.

Why do I need a sealer?

Concrete is porous so unless a sealer, be it acrylic, polyurethane, epoxy or GTA hardener is used then the natural porosity will be susceptible to staining and scratching.

Is polished concrete expensive?

What do you recommend to clean the floor with?

We use and recommend "Tough Green" Cleaner which is a neutral ph product. Available from Grinding Tools Australia

What does exposure mean?

Exposure is the amount of aggregate (rock, quartz, pebble etc) that is able to be seen as a result of the grinding process.

What sorts of questions should people ask before choosing a polished concrete floor?

The home owner should consulate with a professional concrete polisher to decide on how much aggregate/stone should be visible.
