Finish Options

Full Aggregate

This finish exposes all the aggregate in the concrete to give it a terrazzo or granite look. The initial grind is very
aggressive which can remove several mm of concrete. As there can be many different types of aggregate used in concrete, a great deal of different looks can be achieved, to give that premium look.

Rustic Industrial

This finish gives a more contemporary look. It can be achieved on both new and existing concrete floors if the floor has a high-quality power trowel finish and is in good condition. Each floor becomes bespoke as the trowel marks etc are highlighted giving the floor character and a very individual look and feel.

Random finish

The random finish tends to be best suited to existing floors in commercial and industrial premises. This option is more about functionality than aesthetics, where the floor will give many years of service with a basic cleaning regime. The floor can also the most cost-effective option.

Find out more about the many frequently asked questions we get regarding surface preparation.

What types of flooring surfaces can JLR Contracts prepare in the UK?

JLR Contracts is equipped to prepare a wide range of flooring surfaces, including concrete, tile, and more. Our team is experienced in handling various types of floors, ensuring each is appropriately prepared for its specific needs. For concrete floors, we focus on grinding and smoothing out imperfections. Tile floors require a different technique, usually involving leveling and cleaning to ensure a perfect finish. No matter the type of floor, our comprehensive preparation process ensures the best possible outcome for any subsequent flooring treatments or installations.

At JLR Contracts, quality assurance is a priority in our surface preparation process. We employ a systematic approach that includes thorough inspection and assessment of the floor condition, choosing the right tools and methods for each specific surface, and applying our extensive expertise to address any challenges. Regular training ensures our team stays updated with the latest techniques and technologies. We also use high-quality equipment and environmentally friendly materials, ensuring not only an excellent finish but also a sustainable approach. Client satisfaction is central to our process, and we maintain open communication throughout to ensure the final result meets or exceeds expectations.

Safety is paramount at JLR Contracts. We adhere to strict safety protocols to protect both our team and clients. This includes using personal protective equipment, ensuring proper ventilation during processes like grinding or chemical treatments, and following all industry-standard safety guidelines. We conduct regular safety training and assessments to keep our team aware of the latest safety practices. Additionally, we use environmentally safe and non-toxic materials whenever possible, ensuring a safe environment for both our workers and clients during and after the surface preparation process.

Yes, JLR Contracts is fully equipped to handle large-scale commercial floor preparation projects. Our team has extensive experience in managing and executing large projects efficiently and effectively. We have the necessary manpower, equipment, and expertise to tackle large areas, ensuring consistency and quality across the entire space. We work closely with our clients to understand their specific needs and timeframes, and we’re committed to delivering high-quality results within the agreed deadlines, ensuring minimal disruption to your business operations.

The duration of a floor surface preparation project varies depending on the size and condition of the floor, as well as the specific preparation methods required. Typically, a small to medium-sized project can take anywhere from a day to a few days. Larger or more complex projects might take longer. We strive to work efficiently while maintaining high-quality standards. Before commencing the project, we provide a detailed timeline and keep our clients informed about the progress to ensure transparency and planning efficiency.

In residential settings, we understand the importance of minimizing disruption. Our team works efficiently and respectfully, scheduling work at convenient times and ensuring a quick and clean process. We use techniques and equipment that reduce noise and dust, and we always ensure a thorough cleanup after each day’s work. Our goal is to make the floor preparation process as smooth and non-intrusive as possible for our clients.

Yes, polished concrete works exceptionally well with underfloor heating systems and is a popular choice throughout the UK. A polished concrete floor UK benefits from high thermal mass and good thermal conductivity, which helps heat distribute evenly and retain warmth for longer. During installation, heating pipes or electric mats are incorporated into the slab or screed before the polishing stages, ensuring seamless integration. This combination often improves energy efficiency and delivers comfortable, consistent temperatures across a room. It is essential to schedule curing and moisture checks correctly prior to polishing to prevent surface defects, and our team follows industry best practice at every stage. We also advise on insulation, control settings and suitable surface finishes to optimise performance and safety. If you are planning underfloor heating with a polished concrete finish, JLR Contracts can assess your property, recommend the ideal system and manage installation to achieve a quality, long-lasting result.

Many clients ask about cost. A polished concrete floor in the UK is typically competitive compared with high-end tiles, hardwood or resin finishes, especially when you factor in long-term durability and low maintenance costs. Initial installation expenses vary depending on slab condition, area size, chosen finish and any repairs or overlays required. Directly polishing an existing slab is usually the most economical route, while overlays or deep repairs increase cost due to extra materials and labour. However, because polished concrete can last decades with minimal upkeep, the lifecycle cost is often lower than alternative floors that need periodic replacement or refinishing. At JLR Contracts we provide transparent, site-specific quotations after a survey, detailing all stages from preparation to sealing. We also discuss options to tailor the finish to your budget, such as choosing aggregates, sheen level and protective treatments.
