The kitchen has an important place in the family. More and more house and flat owners are  looking for modern, timeless materials and want to move away from traditional solutions such  as granite that are offered by many kitchen manufacturers. Waxed concrete offers a varied  palette of colours and is ideal for open-plan kitchens.

One of the advantages of waxed concrete is that it is easy to maintain in the kitchen. It can be cleaned with a damp cloth, or a neutral detergent can be used for stubborn stains. This material blends in easily with the decor and can be used over existing materials for low-cost renovation.
The seamless coating provides a smooth, uninterrupted surface. For maximum effect, you can also add a central island and a waxed concrete sink. The main precaution is to use a chopping board to prevent scratches and a mat to prevent sharp impacts and heat damage. But the same applies for any other kitchen flooring.

Waxed concrete is an effective solution for bringing kitchen walls up to date with the latest trends without the need for major works.

With waxed concrete, your furniture and interior space will stand out from the rest. Waxed concrete adapts to any environment, covering floors and walls both in contemporary interiors and in more traditional homes.

The position of the staircase in a house is very important when choosing colour and texture. A staircase in a dark corner of the house will need a lighter colour to stand out and regain its place as a decorative and architectural element. A highly visible staircase or one at the heart of the house will benefit from a darker, even bolder, waxed concrete finish.

Waxed concrete coatings lend themselves to being combined with other materials. For example, you can have a waxed concrete staircase and banisters in wood, aluminium or perspex. You can also choose not to fit banisters but rather a handrail.

Whether the staircase is in white waxed concrete or in a darker colour, daily maintenance is easy, whether you use a broom or a vacuum cleaner. We strongly advise against using unsuitable detergents. Do not hesitate to ask your Paviart professional for advice on the right maintenance products for waxed concrete staircases.

As with floors, walls, worktops or bathrooms, the coating needs to be applied by a professional to avoid mistakes that are difficult to rectify. For example, the steps must be clean and straight and the surface must be prepared so that the coating adheres perfectly to the structure. If you want to modernise a wooden staircase, you will need to fill in any cracks and insulate the treads and risers with a special adhesive. The procedure is the same for a tiled staircase as for a staircase in unfinished concrete.
