FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS about overlays

What are the benefits of Concrete Resurfacing?

Cost Effectiveness
Resurfacing your concrete eliminates the cost and time to remove an existing concrete slab. We are able to achieve a  slate, flagstone, cobblestone, or brick look at a fraction of the cost of a natural stone installation.

Address Existing Problems
We already know where your problems lie with your existing slab. It is more cost effective to address the problems rather than remove and replace with a new slab the will eventually have its own repair problems.

Low Maintenance
Since our finished product is less porous than normal concrete, it can be easily cleaned. Concrete resurfacing is maintained by having it resealed every 4 to 5 years

Artistic Design
By using a concrete polymer, we are able to apply any design you can think of. You are not limited by color or pre-fabricated designs...only your imagination. Concrete Resurfacing has become a vogue trend in home improvement because you are able to interject your own personal style into the project. We encourage you to think outside the box when it comes to concrete resurfacing. We do!

How long does Concrete Resurfacing last?

Concrete Resurfacing is a permanent upgrade to your existing concrete. Concrete resurfacing is simply a process of adding a layer of polymer-modified concrete to your existing concrete. If your concrete is not going anywhere, neither is the resurfacing. Concrete Resurfacing, when applied by a professional, does not peel off or wear off from the surface.

Will Concrete Resurfacing crack?

If the concrete underneath cracks, then concrete resurfacing may crack with the movement of the slabs. We can address these problems with a couple of options; either by applying a random flagstone pattern which will hide any reappearing cracks, or apply crack filler which will minimize the cracks appearance.  Concrete resurfacing is a maintainable surface which means that repairs can be done if earth movement causes cracking or lifting of the slab.

 what is stamped concrete

Today, the leading edge of concrete is a process called pattern-stamping.This process involves "stamping" or
"impressing" three dimensional patterns into colored concrete with special stamping tools. When the stamping is
complete, the product is then sealed, highlighting the colors and providing greater stain and weather resistance. The
result is a surface that combines the beauty of masonry with the durability of concrete.

Some of the most common pattern choices include but are not limited to: slate, brick, granite, cobblestone, tile,
flagstone, seamless texture, and more. It is also a common practice to use multiple patterns and colors together with
custom bandwork, edges, and centerpieces. Like all forms of decorative concrete workmanship, the design choices
are only limited by your design tastes.
