Concrete Resurfacing Products, Inc. has been resurfacing and refinishing concrete for Buford homeowners and businesses since 1998. Our shop is here in Buford, so this is home ground for us. We do not pour concrete. Everything we do is applied over the slab you already have.
Why concrete in Buford wears the way it does
Buford is home. Our shop is on Satellite Boulevard, so Buford projects get the shortest drive and the easiest scheduling of anywhere we serve.
Homes around Lake Lanier take a particular beating. Pool decks and boat-side patios see constant wet traffic all summer, and the red clay under them holds water long after the rain stops. That combination lifts and spalls a surface far faster than a slab in a dry inland yard.
North Georgia adds two more things on top of that. The red clay under most of the north Georgia metro expands when it takes on water and shrinks when it dries, which works a slab from underneath. And while our winters are mild, the metro still runs through dozens of freeze and thaw cycles a year, and every one of them widens whatever moisture has already found its way into the surface.
What we do in Buford
- Decorative concrete overlays A thin cementitious layer bonded over the existing slab, which covers surface damage and lets us build in color, pattern and texture.
- Stamped concrete overlays Imprinted to read as brick, slate, flagstone, tile or wood, applied over the concrete you already have.
- Acid staining A reactive stain that penetrates the surface for depth and variegation rather than sitting on top as a flat paint color would.
- Concrete resurfacing Restoring a worn, discolored or lightly cracked slab to a finished surface without removal and replacement.
- Concrete polishing Grinding to a hard, high-gloss finish that needs no wax, most often on garage, basement and commercial floors.
Around Buford that most often means pool decks, lakeside patios and walkways. Across the metro we finish driveways, front entries and porches, patios, pool decks and surrounds, walkways, garage floors, basement and interior floors, and commercial entries.
Serving Buford and the surrounding area
Buford sits in Gwinnett and Hall counties. We work throughout the Buford ZIP codes, including 30518, 30519. We also work in nearby Suwanee, Flowery Branch, Sugar Hill, and across the wider metro. See our before and after gallery for finished work, or the full galleries broken out by driveways, pool decks, patios, garages, walkways, interiors and commercial.
Resurfacing instead of replacing
Removing and replacing a slab means demolition, haul-off, disposal and a new pour that then has to cure before you can use it. Resurfacing keeps the existing concrete in the ground and replaces only the surface you actually see and walk on. It costs less, it is finished sooner, and it does not put a sound slab into a landfill. The one condition is that the concrete underneath has to be structurally sound, and that is the first thing we check.
Colors, patterns and materials
We are a Georgia distributor and installer of Stardek products, a professional-grade system that has been in use for over thirty-five years. There are forty stock colors, custom mixing, and a wide range of stamp patterns and textures. If you want a reactive, variegated look rather than a solid color, see acid staining. Our color chart is the place to start.
Questions we get from Buford homeowners
Do you have to tear out my Buford driveway to fix how it looks?
In most cases, no. If the slab underneath is structurally sound, we resurface the top rather than remove and replace it. That keeps the cost down, avoids the disposal of the old concrete, and takes a fraction of the time. We will tell you honestly if a slab is too far gone to be worth coating.
Will a coating hold up on a pool deck that is wet all summer?
Yes, and it is one of the more common jobs we do around the lake. We can also finish the surface with added texture so it stays slip resistant when wet, which matters more on a pool deck than the color does.
Is there a finish that stays cooler underfoot?
Lighter colors reflect more heat than dark ones, and a textured overlay holds less heat than a smooth sealed surface. For a Buford pool surround that gets full afternoon sun, that combination makes a real difference.
