A power float is used to achieve a smooth and flat finish on a newly-laid concrete surface. Our machinery smooths, re-compacts, and levels the floor once all bleed water has evaporated. Power-floated floors are also highly-resilientwhich means they can easily bear the weight of machinery and vehicles. They are also waterproof and low-maintenance, making them ideal for industrial settings.

If you want to achieve a smooth and flat finish on a newly-laid concrete surface, easy float/pole finishing is the answer. Easy float/pole finishing improves the final surface durability, finish, and quality by reducing surface laitance. This type of finishing is ideal for smaller jobs where the level tolerance is not as critical as the power float finish or where you have a tight schedule.

If you want to achieve a smooth and flat finish on newly-laid liquid screed flooring, dapple bar finishing is the answer. This process achieves a smooth finish when laying free-flowing self-levelling liquid screeds. Dapple bar finishes are often installed in areas where additional grip is needed and that are exposed to high volumes of water, such as industrial spaces, loading areas and car parks.

A tamped finish for uniformed surfaces is produced by raising and lowering the compacting beam in its final pass to produce a surface with ridges at a regular spacing of 20 to 30mm which can improve grip. Tamp or brush finish with a trowelled edge to garages, path areas or similar to meet any finished requirements.

A pre-cast concrete floor is a form of concrete that has been prepared, cast and cured off-site. Here at Footings and Floors Concrete Finishing Ltd, we can install all varieties of pre-cast concrete floors from thermal polystyrene to traditional block and beam. We are also highly experienced at higher-levelinstallations where a product like concrete wide-slab or hollow-core planks may be used.

The most important step in placing concrete is planning and we recommend planning every step before any concrete is delivered. Proper planning avoids delays, wastage, segregation, and problems further down the line. We provide professional concrete preparation services including membranes, mesh, and insulation.
