Choosing a Polished Concrete Overlay Contractor
The cover image is illustrative, not a documented Puur project.
Start by establishing what kind of concrete appearance your project needs. A polished structural slab, a cementitious overlay and microcement are different constructions and should not be confused in a quotation.
Explain the existing construction
Send plans, photographs, intended use, approximate area and available levels. The contractor should assess the base, joints, moisture condition and access before confirming a proposal.
Understand Puur PSR
PSR is a cementitious overlay poured and finished on site over a suitable prepared base. It provides a polished concrete appearance without a new slab. Approve a physical sample and discuss natural shade and patina variation.
Compare responsibilities and scope
Ask which surveys, preparation, repairs, joint details and protection are included. Request relevant examples and written terms instead of assuming specialist slab tolerances or certifications apply to every overlay project.
Check the handover plan
Agree cleaning, maintenance and repair advice for the actual finish. Confirm price inclusions and tax treatment with the supplier; this article does not prescribe VAT treatment or standard resealing intervals.
Discuss your project with Puur
Send plans, photographs of the existing base, intended use and any heating details. We can discuss the finish, samples and the information needed before agreeing a specification.
