Polished concrete sells on the finish. Quote it like you know that.
Grit steps, densifier, stain, and sheen level — all priced and documented the way a serious polishing crew runs the work.
Polished concrete is the most-misunderstood category in commercial flooring. Customers think it's "just concrete." The contractors who do it well know it's a 7-step grinding sequence with chemical densifiers, optional stain or dye, and a sheen level that decides the final price. VEVVO lets you quote and document the work so the customer sees the craft and you don't get beaten on price by a guy with a single-disc grinder.
Grit-step sequence priced honestly
Class A polish is a 7-step grind sequence — 30/40, 80, 150, 400, 800, 1500, 3000 grit — with densifier between steps. VEVVO lets you build that as one service or break it into per-step pricing, so the bid reflects the actual labor instead of being lumped into a single sqft number that hides the work.
Densifier, stain, and dye as discrete options
Lithium silicate densifier is standard. Acid stain, water-based stain, dye — each adds dollars and a day. Quote each as its own line item the customer can opt into. The ones who pick stain almost always upsell themselves on the higher sheen too.
Sheen-level documentation per job
Class 1, Class 2, Class 3 polish (or in plain English: matte, satin, high-gloss). Custom job fields capture the spec on every job so the install matches the quote. Three years later when the building manager asks what they bought, you have the answer on the customer record.
Frequently asked questions
Can I quote polished concrete and epoxy as alternatives on the same bid?+
Yes — they're often head-to-head options for the same garage or warehouse. Build both as services, present both on the quote, let the customer choose.
Does the software handle decorative scoring or saw-cuts?+
Quote them as per-linear-foot line items alongside the per-sqft polish. The PDF totals them cleanly without you doing the math.
What about overlay or topping systems on damaged slabs?+
Topping is its own service in your catalog with its own per-sqft rate and material spec. Stack it before the polish steps on jobs that need it.
