I am not sure of these colours and where they are from but I have got a sample here in the images. You don't say how big the area this will be... I would tend to go with a light colour up against the jarrah floors...it looks stunning....dark...will tend to close the room in. Romano or Icelandia would be my choice. Romano you can pick up a colour from this and accessorise with it and Icelandia will go with anything...Hope this helps...take care..Robyn

hi yes batches are different from batch to batch, but the finishers, toner, and self levellers, grout, are all different and have differing impact of the finish. Two of my Grandsons work in the concrete polishing industry (have for years)and come across this problem every other day. They are so very used to fixing up concrete pourers blues. I do know of some extreme difficulties (some over forty years old under carpet that have had the same problem) that have given my boys a hard time. However, at the end of it, using the right gear, you can literally see your face in the reflection plus the reflected image via the window.

We have done many homes that included polished concrete in bedrooms and throughout. In Melbourne people opt to have hydronic heating when doing a new build. The use of rugs Is a great way too mediate for any cold during winter months. Also any windows with direct sun light will mean that the concrete will warm up and hold that warmth. Thats one of my favourite things about concrete floors.

We will be renovating very soon and we have decided to go with polished concrete. The question is how easily does it soil? Does a well and often used path stain and soil the concrete? Does it make a difference what finish is used, for example burnished compared to sealed? Thanks Annetta
