Polished Concrete Services
Polished Concrete Flooring Built for Demanding Facilities
Concrete polishing is a mechanical process - not a coating. DTI specifies the grind level, densifier, and sheen around how your facility actually operates rather than applying the same finish everywhere.
Engineered Finishes
High-Performance Polished Concrete Systems
Polished concrete is specified by sheen level - the higher the number, the more reflective the finish. DTI recommends a level based on your environment, traffic class, and maintenance expectations.
Heavy IndustrialIndustrial Matte & Satin (Level 1–2)
Ground smooth with low-to-no reflectivity for warehouses, logistics, and light industrial environments where dust proofing, durability, and functionality are the priorities.
- Eliminates Concrete Dusting
- Handles Forklift & Pallet Traffic
Retail & CommercialSemi-Gloss Retail Finish (Level 3)
Clear reflectivity with visible aggregate - the most common retail and commercial specification. Durable, attractive, brand-standard consistent, and low-maintenance.
- Most Common Commercial Spec
- No Waxing or Recoating Cycle
Showrooms & LobbiesHigh-Gloss Architectural (Level 4)
Mirror-like reflectivity with full aggregate exposure for showrooms, corporate lobbies, and high-end commercial environments where floor appearance is a priority.
- Maximum Light Reflectivity
- Dye & Stain Color Options
Project Experience
Completed Commercial & Industrial Polished Concrete Projects
Real project applications demonstrate how polishing specifications are selected around traffic, appearance, scheduling and operational requirements.
Burlington Store
Burlington's Las Vegas retail location required polished concrete installed on a construction timeline - fast cure, return-to-service within 48 hours, and a finish that met the chain's brand standard for sheen level and consistency across the full floor plate. DTI coordinated directly with the GC to schedule installation within the build-out window and delivered a Level 3 polished concrete floor on time and to spec.
Escape Games San Francisco
Entertainment venue flooring needs to handle steady foot traffic and daily cleaning while maintaining the aesthetic the space was designed around. DTI polished the concrete floor to a medium sheen that complemented the venue's interior design - durable enough for commercial use, finished to a level that didn't require ongoing waxing or recoating.

Grinding & Polishing Process
Our Concrete Grinding & Polishing Process
How is concrete polished? Concrete polishing is a mechanical process - not a coating. It uses progressively finer diamond tooling to grind the concrete surface down to the desired exposure level, then densifier is applied to chemically harden the surface, and final polishing passes bring the floor to the specified sheen.
Methodology
Our 5-Step Concrete Polishing Protocol
Every square foot is mechanically ground, densified, and polished to the specified sheen level.
Coarse Grinding
Metal bond diamonds remove existing coatings, adhesives, and contamination. Addresses high spots, lippage, and surface defects, and sets the aggregate exposure level.
Medium Grinding
Transitional diamonds refine the surface profile and develop flatness. Scratches from coarse grinding are removed progressively through finer grits.
Densifier Application
A lithium or sodium silicate densifier reacts with free lime in the concrete - filling pores, increasing surface hardness, and significantly reducing dusting.
Fine Polishing
Progressive polishing with resin bond tooling brings the surface to the specified sheen. Grit sequence continues until the target finish is confirmed.
Guard Sealer Application
A penetrating guard sealer repels water, oil, and staining agents without altering the floor's appearance or adding a surface film.
No topcoat to peel. No film to maintain.
The finished surface is the concrete itself - ground, densified, and polished. A penetrating guard sealer is applied at the end to repel water, oil, and staining agents without altering the floor's appearance or adding a surface film.
Uncompromising Execution
Why Facilities Choose DTI as Their Concrete Polishing Contractor
Most polished concrete disappointments aren't caused by bad concrete—they are caused by rushed grinding sequences and skipped densification. At DTI, we deliver consistent, specification-grade finishes through disciplined diamond progression and rigorous quality control.
Full Diamond Grit Progression
We never skip grits. Each pass is completed and verified before advancing, which is what produces a uniform, brand-standard finish across the full floor plate.
Dust-Controlled, Occupied-Space Ready
HEPA-filtered vacuum systems capture grinding dust at the source, allowing work in occupied or partially operational facilities on night and weekend schedules.
Sheen Verified to Specification
Finish levels are confirmed against the specified gloss target before handover, so retail chains and GCs get the documented consistency their standards require.

System Selection
Polished Concrete vs. Epoxy Coating
The right choice depends on what your floor needs to do. DTI installs both systems and will tell you which one is right for your floor before any work begins.
Verified Client Feedback
Trusted by Facility Managers Nationwide
"DTI polished our retail floor to the exact brand-standard sheen on a tight build-out schedule. The finish was consistent across the entire floor plate and turned over on time."
Construction Manager | National Retail Chain
"Our warehouse floor was dusting constantly. After DTI ground and densified it, the dusting stopped and the floor handles daily forklift traffic without any coating to peel or maintain."
Operations Manager | Distribution Facility
"Professional crew, dust-controlled equipment, and honest guidance on which sheen level actually made sense for our space. The floor looks great and cleanup is just a mop."
Facility Director | Commercial Venue
Answers to Common Questions
Concrete Polishing Contractor FAQ
What does a commercial concrete polishing contractor do?
A commercial concrete polishing contractor is a specialized firm that mechanically grinds concrete floors with progressively finer diamond tooling, applies chemical densifiers to harden the surface, and polishes the slab to a specified sheen level. The process includes coating and adhesive removal, surface flatness correction, densification, fine resin-bond polishing, and penetrating guard sealer application for stain resistance.
