Concrete Floors for Gastown & Downtown Vancouver

Polished concrete and decorative finishes built for Gastown’s brick-and-beam lofts, restaurants and retail — seamless, characterful, and tough enough for downtown foot traffic.

01 — The Brief

Floors with character, for a neighbourhood with character

Gastown’s brick-and-beam buildings, heritage conversions and exposed structure deserve a floor that matches — raw, honest and seamless. Polished concrete fits the aesthetic perfectly: it reads industrial-chic, takes relentless foot traffic, and cleans up in seconds, which matters in a restaurant or a busy retail floor.

Designer Concrete polishes slabs, installs micro-overlays over old or uneven floors, and seals existing concrete for lofts, cafés, galleries and shops across Gastown, Crosstown and the downtown core. Where there’s no slab worth saving, a thin decorative overlay delivers the same look on any subfloor.

06 — Questions

Gastown concrete FAQs

My building is heritage — can you still polish the floor?

Often yes. If there’s a sound slab we polish it; if not, a thin overlay gives the same look without disturbing the structure.

Can you work around our restaurant hours?

Yes — we stage and use fast-cure systems to keep closures to a minimum, often working overnight.

Is polished concrete slippery for a busy floor?

We add a fine anti-slip additive to the sealer for restaurants and retail while keeping the polished look.

How tough is it for downtown foot traffic?

Very — densified, sealed concrete is one of the most durable commercial floors available.
