Winter is always a particularly treacherous time of year for concrete surfaces. Beyond the cycle of constant changes in extreme winter temperatures that cause the moisture in the concrete to freeze and thaw, which takes its toll on a concrete slab’s structural integrity, there are the countless chemicals, de-icers, and salt compounds that are used to treat snow and ice that can also wreak even more havoc on your slab’s lifespan.
If you have a plain, old, drab slab in need of beautification and winterizing, a professional can apply a new, stamped surface to your existing slab that not only
Stamped concrete, often called textured or imprinted concrete, can replicate the look of slate, flagstone, tile, brick, and even wood. In addition to offering an improved visual aesthetic to a space, stamping can also offer a level of safety by reducing slip and fall potentials. More slip resistant than conventional concrete, stamped concrete is a permanent solution that reduces the human and financial cost of slip/fall accidents while eliminating the need for costly replacement safety mats or rugs. Grooves can be cut to channel water away from an area or patterns can be added to increase traction underfoot.
Optimal Locations for Stamped Concrete
When it comes to effective ways to increase your home’s value while also dramatically increasing its curb appeal, few things are as cost-effective and impactful as renovating the concrete on your front entryway, walkways, and/or porch. Even though we’ve discussed the benefit of adding curb appeal by way of decorative concrete on the driveway, which is generally one of the first things most people notice about the front of your house, the front of the house itself certainly factors into the equation.
Walkways
Often times overlooked as something that can be renovated or refreshed, a drab walkway offers a wonderful opportunity to boost curb appeal
When it comes to stylish indoor flooring options, few things can match up to stained concrete when it comes to beauty, durability, cost, and ease of care. And while it may be easy to care for and maintain, one thing it isn’t is easy to apply. Even though the most confident DIYer might feel okay with attempting to stain a concrete surface, it really is a job best left to a professional.
Preparation
When applying a decorative color stain to a concrete surface, it’s not only important to use the proper tools and chemicals, but it’s even more important to
So you’ve decided that you’d like to expand your outdoor living space by either installing a new patio or by expanding an existing patio. You certainly wouldn’t be alone in your desire to do so. Many homeowners have followed the trend and taken to the great outdoors in an effort to expand their usable living space, whether for entertaining friends and family in a cozy outdoor living area, an outdoor kitchen, or any one of the other functional patio options available to them.
But what material should you use for your patio? With a myriad of patio materials from which
As spring has sprung and warmer temps have hit the Atlanta area, it’s time to join everybody else and get outside to enjoy all the sun and fun that Mother Nature has to offer. If you have a pool, then it’s definitely time to make all your seasonal preparations to ensure that everything is in order and ready to go when your friends and family come with towels and goggles in tow.
If you own a pool, then you know all too well the hassle of keeping your pool deck not only looking spectacular, but making sure that it’s safe
2019 has arrived, and along with it, all the new year’s resolutions, hope, and optimism for what’s yet to come. While the first thing that may come to mind when you think of resolutions might be something pertaining to health, fitness, or finances, if you’re a homeowner, there are probably a few things you want to accomplish around the house, too. No matter the size or scope of the project, this is the perfect time of year to begin making an actual list of the things you want to tackle in the new year.
Do More With Your Floor
Because
While the calendar and the thermometer still tell us that we’re clearly in winter’s frozen grip, it won’t be long at all before we’re hosing off our concrete surfaces and firing up the grill for some good ol’ Southern backyard living. Whether it’s just you, unwinding on the back porch after a long day at work or a patio full of people, there’s no denying that your outdoor space is a treasured spot where you can enjoy a lifetime’s worth of memories with family and friends. That’s why it’s important to pay special attention to the look and feel of
While the cold air of fall and winter have arrived to push the stifling heat of summer away, it’s that same cold air that can ravage cracked concrete, causing further damage, and making a bad situation even worse. That’s because cold air causes concrete to contract, causing the gaps to gape even wider, leaving the surface even more dangerous, too. Cracked concrete allows rainwater to seep into the soil underneath the slab, causing erosion, which only causes more cracking and further damage. If it happens to be a driveway, you can only imagine what harm the extreme weight of a
Occasionally, we here at Concrete Resurfacing Productsreceive online inquiries from our blogreaders, asking us random questions about decorative concreteand different aspects of its installation. Since it never seems to fail that we get a few like it around this time every year, we found the following question to be a timely one worth sharing and addressing:
Dear Concrete Resurfacing Products,
My wife and I have been thinking about getting the concrete on our back patio fixed and resurfaced and were wondering if there was any time of the year when it might be best to get the work done. We’d
If there’s one element of a multi-million-dollar showcase home that helps the most to set it apart from other homes, most would probably say it’s the attention to detail in every aspect. Whether it’s the interior or the exterior, paying attention to the details goes a long, long way. One area of the exterior of the home that is often horribly underrated and often neglected is the driveway. Yes, the driveway.
Usually gray in color, driveways (even brand new ones) weren’t necessarily designed to stand out and make any kind of statement. But when you invest in a resurfaced decorative
With Labor Day just a few weeks away, it’s almost that time of year for us to start gearing up for the cooler temps of those fall Georgia evenings on the back porch that we all seem to love so much. Whether you’re just popping out for a few to watch the sunset from your back porch after a hard day’s work or entertaining friends and family with a full-blown weekend cookout, there’s no doubt that a proper outdoor space makes a huge difference in not only increasing our living space, but enhancing the lives that we live. Here are
Summer is officially is in full swing and the if your household is anything like most people’s homes, the garage is getting its fair share of use this time of year. Whether it’s the summertime gear being stored in the garage, to the family vehicles going in and out for all the activities a busy family tends to engage in during this season, the garage tends to be one of the most heavily used areas of the home. Add to that the fact that it’s probably the primary point of access for most people’s homes and it’s plain to see
Summer’s right around the corner, which means the time is just right for any pre-summer sprucing up that you have planned for the exterior of your home and your other outdoor areas. Often times a second thought for most homeowners, the outdoor spaces around your house (pool decks, garages, patios, etc.) tend to get a lot more use during the warmer months of the year, which makes this the perfect time to assess the health of your concrete surfaces in order to have them resurfaced.
Pool Decks & Patios
Of course, it makes good sense to do the pool deck
If you’re like any other business owner, chances are you’re always looking to save a buck whenever and wherever you can. Because you’re a business owner, it’s also probably safe to say that you’re responsible for the upkeep and maintenance your space requires. One area that gets overlooked quite often is the floor.
Like, seriously… It’s the floor. Who looks at it, anyway? We just walk on it, right? Not so fast. Consumers have indicated that a dirty or unkempt floor makes a terrible impression and can affect how they view your business, regardless of how good your service or
Alright, so with winter finally in the rear view mirror, you’ve finally stepped out of the house and taken an honest assessment of your home’s exterior. Maybe some repainting here, some planting there… But, how about your concrete surfaces? Are they still intact, or are they crumbling? Still looking as good as new, or could they use some resurfacing? While it’s easy to take your concrete surfaces for granted (after all, it’s concrete, right?), it’s definitely worth looking into. Because concrete tends to get overlooked, maybe this is the year you decide that you’d like to look into renovating your
As we look ahead and prepare to emerge from winter’s cold grasp, we find ourselves right around the corner from daylight-saving time, which means longer days, milder evenings, and the perfect time of year to spend extended time outside. Add to that the subsequent cookouts, parties, and additional memories made in the backyard, and it’s easy to see how the exterior of your home is just as important a living space as any other area of your home. Because of that, you want it looking its best, especially after a cold, hard winter.
The Look of Stamped Concrete
Stamped or
It’s been said that you never get a second chance to make a first impression. While most people tend to apply it to job interviews and meeting people for the first time, it certainly holds true when it comes to the first impression that people get from the front of your home’s exterior, especially prospective buyers. But whether you’re trying to sell your home or not, curb appeal goes a long way in making a great first impression on the people who are seeing your house for the first time.
When it comes to curb appeal, it’s natural to look
