73,000 Sq Ft School — Polished Concrete Campus Floors
Florida 73,000 sq ft Concrete Polishing • Dyed Corridor Floors • Densify & Burnish
A 73,000 sq ft school campus polished wall-to-wall: mirror-gloss common areas and classrooms, plus charcoal-dyed corridors — all coordinated around an active construction schedule.
The Challenge
Schools take brutal daily traffic: thousands of footsteps, rolling carts, chairs, and constant cleaning. The facility needed floors that would last decades with minimal maintenance, meet slip and light-reflectance expectations, and be installed in phases while other construction trades worked around us.
Our Solution
- 1Large-format planetary grinders with full dust extraction across 73,000 sq ft
- 2Progressive metal-bond and resin-bond diamond passes for a flat, refined surface
- 3Charcoal dye applied to corridor floors for a dramatic, easy-to-maintain finish
- 4Lithium silicate densifier to chemically harden every square foot
- 5Final burnished stain-guard for gloss and spill resistance
- 6Phased schedule coordinated with the general contractor to keep the project on track
The Results
- 73,000 sq ft of seamless polished concrete across corridors, classrooms, and common areas
- High light reflectance that brightens hallways and reduces lighting load
- No wax, no recoating cycles — dust mop and auto-scrubber maintenance only
- A floor system rated for decades of student traffic
