Polished concrete work uses progressively finer grinding and polishing steps, often with densifier and a protective treatment, to produce the specified finish. Southern California pricing depends on slab condition, required repairs, aggregate exposure, sheen level, edge work, access, and total floor area.

Typical range: $6–$18 per square foot — Southern California (2026 pricing)

What moves the price

Slab condition — Cracks, spalling, coatings, adhesives, uneven areas, and contaminants increase preparation and repair work.
Aggregate exposure — A deeper grind to reveal more aggregate requires additional machine passes and tooling.
Gloss level — Higher-sheen finishes generally require more polishing stages and finer abrasives.
Edges and obstacles — Walls, corners, columns, cabinets, and penetrations require slower handheld detailing.
Area and access — Open floor plans support efficient equipment use, while small rooms, stairs, and restricted access increase labor.
