Polished concrete is no longer reserved for trendy restaurants or big-box stores. Dallas homeowners are embracing the finish for living rooms, kitchens, garages, and even outdoor entertainment areas. CountBricks combines on-site know-how with AI-powered estimating to deliver a seamless concrete polishing experience fully tailored to residential projects.
Why are so many local homeowners replacing tile, carpet, and hardwood with polished slabs? The answer lies in durability, aesthetics, and cost. CountBricks projects reveal that a properly polished floor can last decades with minimal maintenance while reflecting natural light to make interior spaces feel larger and brighter.
• Low maintenance: simple damp mopping instead of waxing or refinishing
• Allergy-friendly: no fibers to trap dust or dander
• Sustainable: uses the existing slab—no extra flooring materials
• Design flexibility: gloss levels from matte to mirror, plus integral dyes and decorative saw cuts
• Cost-effective: fewer replacement cycles than wood or carpet
Dallas experiences hot summers, mild winters, and occasional humidity spikes. Untreated concrete can absorb moisture and stain, but CountBricks uses densifiers and penetrating sealers formulated for North Texas conditions. Our local crews have polished everything from historic Oak Lawn bungalows to new builds in Frisco, ensuring each slab handles thermal expansion and soil movement common to the region.
1. Inspection and moisture testing to confirm slab suitability
2. AI-assisted voice walkthrough with the homeowner using CountBricks mobile to capture square footage and obstacles
3. Mechanical grinding with progressively finer diamonds for a smooth base
4. Application of lithium-based densifier to harden the surface
5. Polishing passes up to the desired gloss level
6. Stain or dye application if a decorative color is requested
7. Final guard sealer and burnish for long-term protection
• Existing slab condition: cracks or uneven areas may require patching
• Desired finish: higher gloss and intricate saw cuts add labor
• Staining or graphics: custom dyes or inlays introduce specialty materials
• Accessibility: second-story installations need additional equipment
• Square footage: larger contiguous areas benefit from economies of scale

A Lakewood homeowner wanted to replace dated carpet with a modern, low-maintenance surface. Using CountBricks.com/services, our team generated a voice-driven estimate during the first walkthrough. The 550-sq-ft slab had minor spalling, so our budget included patch material and Level 2 sheen. The entire scope—from grinding to final sealer—took three days. The client now enjoys a sleek, light-reflective floor that stands up to kids and pups alike.
• Place entry mats to capture grit
• Damp mop weekly with a pH-neutral cleaner
• Re-burnish high-traffic zones every 2-3 years for like-new gloss
• Avoid harsh acids or abrasive pads that can dull the finish

At CountBricks, we hear many of the same questions during residential consultations. Below are concise answers to help you decide if polished concrete is right for your Dallas home.
• Most single-room projects finish within two to three days, including curing time for densifiers and sealers. Whole-house renovations may stretch to a week depending on square footage and design complexity.
• Surprisingly, polished concrete often exceeds OSHA slip-resistance standards when dry. For wet areas such as pool decks, CountBricks can incorporate micro-etching or a satin sheen to increase traction.
• Yes. Garage slabs are typically thicker and ideal for polishing. We recommend an oil-lifting pre-treatment if automotive fluids have penetrated the surface.
• Hairline cracks are filled with color-matched epoxy before grinding. Structural cracks require stabilization, which CountBricks crews handle with stitched rebar pins or flexible polyurea joints.
• Residential projects in Dallas usually range from $4 to $9 per square foot. Use the voice estimate feature at CountBricks.com/consultation for an exact figure tailored to your slab condition and finish level.
• Choose a lighter dye to amplify natural light and reduce energy costs
• Plan cuts or inlays before drywall goes up to avoid airborne dust on finished surfaces
• Seal kitchen and bath slabs with a food-safe guard for added stain resistance
