Hawthorn
What we see around here.
Hawthorn is renovation territory. The period housing means tessellated tile verandahs, bluestone paths and original hearth and entry stone, most of which is worth restoring rather than pulling up. The rear extensions going in behind those facades are where the polished concrete goes, usually a new slab meeting an old house, which makes matching levels and finish the interesting part of the job.

Hawthorn questions
Asked around here.
Can you polish a new extension slab to match the rest of the house?
Yes, and the decision to make early is exposure level. A full aggregate exposure looks very different to a cream or salt-and-pepper finish, and it is set by how much material comes off. We will show you the options against your actual slab before starting, because concrete varies pour to pour.
Are tessellated tiles safe to clean and seal?
Yes, with the right chemistry. Original Victorian tessellated tile is unglazed and porous, so it takes a penetrating sealer rather than a coating. Aggressive acid cleaning damages the surface permanently, and undoing that is one of the more common things we get called in for.
What does it cost in Hawthorn?
Starting prices are polished concrete from $99/m² inc GST ($90 + GST) and stone cleaning and sealing from $22/m² inc GST ($20 + GST). Stone restoration is quoted from photos of the surface.
