Can't understand why the original builder sealed the floor first and tried to clean second?? Very Strange. I have never refurbed a concrete floor, but I would think that the way forward would be diamonds?? Build up to a finish that the client is happy with. Am I barking up the wrong tree with this? I would be interested to know the outcome, however, we are still using stone for floors in Yorkshire, not many of us are brave enough to change to concrete....yet!

I think I would get a specialist company in who do polished concrete for a living and get them to give you a quote to do through you.
this one looks as though builder has just had a go at it himself when he should have got a specialist in.
seen some really smart polished concrete floors and there are all sorts of finish one can achieve
look at puur or lazenby concrete flooring companies and they have some images.
if previous builder has already sealed the floor it could be tricky to get right result.
