Are concrete floors too hard to walk on?

Concrete is probably the most commonly used flooring material for tough-working commercial and residential spaces like warehouses, garages, basements as well as retail stores, its durability is definitely a positive thing! In addition, concrete is the most well-known outdoor hardscape material for walkways, decks for pools outdoor patios, driveways and driveways.


Concrete is an extremely desired surface for both interior and exterior floors due to a variety of great reasons:


  • Durability - It's not easily damaged by the weather, traffic vehicles, tools, or chemical spills
  • Clean and easy to maintain - a floor that has been sealed can withstand spills, stains bacteria and dust, so just a quick sweep and mop that is damp is usually all you need to keep your floor in good shape
  • It can be stained, polished, or stamped to create stunningly unique designs that mimic natural wood, stone and brick (at only a fraction of the price that "real")
  • In terms of replacement, concrete floors last longer than other flooring options, including tile, carpet or linoleum.
  • Environmentally-friendly--in most cases a concrete subfloor already exists beneath whatever flooring is in place, so removing that material to get to the concrete surface eliminates the need for newly produced material to have a new floor
  • Temperature "wise"--concrete keeps rooms cool in the summer, and warm in winter by retaining temperature and slowly releasing heat the coolness
