Concrete flooring

Hi,


We are about to begin building our home and I for one am very keen to ditch the tiled floor and do a polished concrete floor downstairs. However I would like some help in understanding the cost, process (at what stage is it done?) and finishing options (dont want an aggregate finish).

If anyone with a concrete floor at home who can share their personal thoughts on their experience with it would be great help.

Also if I can be lead or recommended to professionals of the trade in the Sydney metro area would be much appreciated!

One other point of help I am after is about gas fireplaces. We plan to create a division between the living area and kitchen (meeting halfway about open floor plan) by putting up a wall with a gas fireplace as the feature (refer to photo) . I would like to know if I will be able to use the kitchen side of the wall as added cabinetry or will this wall be useless due to the installation of the fireplace gping through the wall?
