Concrete Resurfacing Products, Inc. has been resurfacing and refinishing concrete for Johns Creek homeowners and businesses since 1998. We work out of our shop in Buford, and Johns Creek is part of our regular service area. We do not pour concrete. Everything we do is applied over the slab you already have.
Why concrete in Johns Creek wears the way it does
Johns Creek homes tend to have generous rear patios and pool surrounds, which is where decorative overlay work has the most visual impact.
Most of the housing here went up through the 1990s and 2000s, which means a great many driveways and patios are now twenty to thirty years old. That is exactly the age when a broom-finished slab starts showing surface wear, hairline cracking and the grey blotching that no amount of pressure washing will lift.
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 Johns Creek
- 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 Johns Creek that most often means driveways, front entries and patios. 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.

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 Johns Creek homeowners
Do you have to tear out my Johns Creek 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.
My Johns Creek driveway is about twenty five years old and looks grey and blotchy. Is that a structural problem?
Usually not. That is surface wear and staining rather than slab failure, and it is exactly the situation resurfacing is for. Pressure washing lifts dirt but cannot restore a surface that has lost its finish.
Will this satisfy an HOA?
A decorative overlay reads as a finished, intentional surface rather than a patch, which is generally the concern. If your association has a written standard, send it to us before we specify a color and pattern.
