Commercial Polished Concrete Geelong
Specify the finish around the space and its use. Slab Studio works with builders, architects, designers and business owners on considered commercial concrete floors.
Start with the operating brief.
A customer-facing interior, workspace or tenancy fit-out needs more than a finish reference. The expected foot traffic, cleaning regime, entrances, spill risks and handover requirements all belong in the brief.
Mechanical polishing may suit the project; the existing substrate and operational requirements determine that suitability. Where it is not the right specification, a specialist sealed finish can be discussed as an alternative.
Give the slab an early review.
For an existing tenancy, provide the current floor covering, known coatings, previous use, repairs and any available slab information. Removing a covering can reveal conditions that were not visible at quotation stage. Agree how those discoveries will be handled.
For new construction, coordinate the intended concrete appearance and exposure with the relevant project team before the pour. Our builder’s planning guide sets out the questions worth resolving early.
Appearance, access and sequencing.
Choose aggregate exposure and gloss together with the maintenance and use requirements. A gloss reference alone does not establish suitability or a slip-resistance rating. Where a tested performance is required, the designer or relevant specialist should identify the required specification and verification.
- Confirm floor area, edge details, joins and transitions.
- Discuss access, available services and the working programme.
- Coordinate adjacent trades and protection of the completed floor.
- Agree the handover information and cleaning expectations.
A direct conversation with the specialist.
Irwin remains your point of contact from the initial scope discussion through the floor-finishing work. Send your drawings, location, approximate area and programme to start a project review. Every quote is prepared manually for the agreed scope.
We work across Geelong, the Bellarine and Surf Coast. The selected projects show our finish craftsmanship; the specification for your commercial setting is assessed separately.
Questions,
considered.
How is a commercial polished concrete floor priced?
Area, preparation, edge details, access and the construction programme influence cost. Share drawings and operational requirements so Irwin can prepare a quote for the defined scope.
Can polishing fit around a commercial handover date?
Discuss the handover date before booking. Available access, staged work, other trades and any preparation discoveries affect the programme; timing is agreed after the scope is understood.
Can you assess a new tenancy slab or an existing fit-out?
Yes. A new slab benefits from a pre-pour finish brief. For an existing tenancy, previous coverings, repairs and the slab condition should be reviewed before committing to the finish.
Can a commercial floor have Low gloss, Semi gloss or High gloss?
Those are our polished concrete gloss options. The selection is considered alongside use, lighting, cleaning and any required slip performance, which appearance alone cannot establish.
What should a commercial cleaning team know?
Agree a cleaning method and compatible products for the finished floor. Entrances, loose grit, spills and traffic patterns need to be considered in the ongoing care plan.
Where do you take on commercial enquiries?
Slab Studio is based in Geelong VIC 3220 and welcomes enquiries across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and Surf Coast, including Torquay, Ocean Grove, Drysdale and Queenscliff.
