A Perfect Match for Vintage Vinyl
For over two decades, Revilla Grooves and Gear has built a reputation for collecting and selling pristine vinyl records and vintage audio equipment. Their space in Milltown, New Jersey houses rare finds from every corner of the world – from Jazz and Blues to Punk and Afrobeat.
The challenge was clear: create a floor that would complement their carefully curated collection while handling the steady stream of record enthusiasts. Polished concrete was the natural choice, offering a classic look that fits perfectly with the store’s vintage atmosphere.
Transforming the Space
Before beginning the concrete polishing process, our team conducted a thorough assessment. We tested the concrete’s hardness and moisture levels to determine the perfect approach. The store owners temporarily relocated their inventory.
The Swayd team completed the transformation over two days, working efficiently to minimize the store’s downtime. The process included careful surface preparation, progressive grinding, and the application of a concrete densifier for added durability. The final polishing and sealing steps brought out the concrete’s natural beauty while ensuring long-lasting protection.
Results That Strike the Right Note
The finished polished concrete floor delivers exactly what this unique space needed. The natural concrete polish creates an industrial-chic look that perfectly matches the store’s authentic character. Plus, the durable surface easily handles the foot traffic of eager vinyl hunters.
The store owner shared their enthusiasm about the results with a 5-star review: “Absolutely beautiful work, completed in a very timely manner. Couldn’t be happier.”
The new polished concrete floor serves both form and function in this historic space. Record browsers now enjoy a smooth, level surface for their vinyl-hunting expeditions.
