What is grind and seal?

Grind and seal is a concrete finishing method where the surface is mechanically ground back to remove imperfections, then sealed with a protective coating. It creates a smooth, durable, and low-maintenance floor finish.

Polished concrete involves a more extensive grinding and polishing process to achieve a highly reflective finish without a topical coating. Grind and seal uses a protective sealer to achieve the look and durability, often at a lower cost and with more flexibility in appearance.

Every concrete slab is different. Colour, aggregate exposure, and final finish depend on the original concrete mix and how it was poured. We can discuss options and show you examples so you know what to expect.

No — grind and seal works with the concrete slab that’s already in place. The aggregate revealed during grinding is from the original pour.

Grind and seal starts from $75 per square metre.
Polished concrete starts from $135 per square metre.
