Concrete Floor Cleaning & Staining: Advice From The Experts

Concrete is becoming an increasingly popular option for flooring in many people’s homes and patios, largely due to the fact that with proper staining a concrete floor can have it’s look drastically changed! But, is concrete staining really worth it? And how should you go about doing it? Here’s some expert advice from us here at The Steam Team:

Concrete Staining Benefits

One of the most obvious benefits to having a stained concrete floor is the easy maintenance level. In fact, stained concrete floors are the longest-lasting flooring option you can choose. That’s because unlike other floors, stained concrete does not crack, chip or peel. Besides occasionally wiping it with a damp cloth, your floor won’t require much upkeep.

Do you prefer for your floor to have the sleek look of marble? Or what about the homely look of a wood floor? Or stone tile? Whatever your preference, concrete staining can create the appearance of any of these options, and many more! It also just happens to be much cheaper than these other flooring options. That means you get the ideal look for a fraction of the price!
