INTERIOR CONCRETE FLOORS
Flooring
Flooring is something that we use each and every day and yet it’s still something that we probably don’t give a lot of thought to.

Low Maintenance
Floors take quite a beating in terms of use. We walk on them all day long, spreading dirt, grime, hair and bacteria throughout our home. For this reason it’s important to keep them clean at all times. Cleaning floors can be an unfavorable chore, especially if you have to get on your hands and knees and scrub tile or get at the grout in between. Concrete floors only require simple sweeping and light, damp mopping to keep them looking good as new. Not only that but sealed concrete also stays protected from stains and spills, which is especially helpful if you have small children running around.
Design
Yet again, stamped concrete wins out in the design department. Concrete floors today have the ability to look luxurious and expensive without actually being so. You can add a dye to your concrete as it’s being mixed to create an interesting color. Many people opt for warm, earthy tones that will tie the room together and make it warm and inviting. Stamped concrete uses stencils to give it texture, which can be nice for a kitchen, bathroom or sunroom. You can essentially customize your floor to look however you want it to look, which is a big bonus for people looking to change up their home design or who like one-of-a-kind styles.
Heated Floors
You might think that the downside to concrete floors would be that they’re hard and cold, which is a big turn-off for many people. However, concrete floors can actually be heated, providing your bathroom or living room with that cozy, comfortable feeling most people crave. Radiant heat is installed by adding electrical cables or hot water tubes right into the concrete. This can be done to new concrete floors as they are being constructed, or existing concrete floors so long as new concrete can be poured over the current slab. The end result will have your feet thanking you.
Strength
Concrete is one of the strongest materials out there, which means that it will hold up for a very long time. Floors take a lot of weight and are also susceptible to spills, scratches, breaks and other forms of trauma. One of the best things about concrete is that it doesn’t scratch or dent. You won’t have to worry about pesky furniture legs ruining your beautiful floors if you opt for concrete. Years down the road, it will still look as pristine as the day you got it.
