Why Concrete?
​Concrete is one of the best choices for foundations, driveways, patios, and walkways due to its strength, durability, and low maintenance. It can withstand heavy loads, harsh weather, and last for decades with minimal upkeep. Plus, concrete offers versatile finishing options to suit different styles and needs. A broom finish provides a slip-resistant texture, ideal for driveways and walkways. A stamped finish mimics the look of stone, brick, or tile, adding a decorative touch to patios. Exposed aggregate showcases natural stones for a unique and textured appearance, while a smooth troweled finish gives a clean, polished look, perfect for modern spaces. Whether you need functionality or aesthetics, concrete delivers both!
Different Concrete Finishes
​One of the most common outdoor finishes, achieved by pulling a broom over freshly poured concrete to create a textured, slip-resistant surface. It’s ideal for driveways, walkways, and patios, especially in areas prone to rain or snow.
​
This finish is achieved by washing away the top layer of cement paste to reveal decorative stones and aggregates within the concrete. It provides a natural, textured look that enhances traction, making it a popular choice for driveways, sidewalks, and patios.
​
A decorative finish where patterns and textures are stamped into the concrete before it sets. This technique can replicate the appearance of brick, stone, slate, or tile, making it perfect for patios, pool decks, and decorative walkways while maintaining concrete’s durability.
A sleek, polished surface created using a trowel, commonly used for indoor spaces like garages, warehouses, basements, and commercial buildings. It gives a modern, clean look and is easy to clean, but it can be slippery when wet, so it’s not typically used for outdoor areas.
