Concrete Floors and Snow

Flooring can get be hard to clean during the winter. Snow, mud, and leaves that are tracked indoors when the weather is cold can pose a cleanup problem with other flooring types, but concrete can be quickly and efficiently cleaned without the hassle.

Benefits of Concrete Floors In Winter

Concrete floors just need a quick mop in order to be completely cleaned. They tend not to absorb dirt and stains, so there is very little scrubbing involved when it comes to concrete floors. The industrial look may cause homeowners to be wary, but innovative sealers can be used to create a sleek, modern look in any building.

Not only are concrete floors easier to clean in the winter, but they can also help property owners lower their heating costs. This type of flooring absorbs heat when the drapes are open and the sunlight is coming in.

Avoiding Damage To Concrete Floors

One problem that property owners may run into when they opt for concrete floors is damage from salt or ice melt. Anyone who has seen crumbled sidewalks after a long, snowy winter has witnessed the damage that salt can do to concrete. Much of the damage is done when concrete is not in a heated building, so homeowners generally do not have to worry. To be safe, calcium chloride can be used. This is a safe ice melt for concrete. If salt gets on concrete anyway, it should be promptly cleaned off.
 Concrete floors are an ideal solution for residential and commercial spaces. Cleanup is a breeze in all seasons, and these floors tend to be very durable. The first step to enjoying the benefits of concrete flooring is contacting a flooring contractor for an estimate.
