Stamped Concrete Contractors Greensboro
Decorative concrete in Greensboro is a great option to enhance the outdoor spaces of homes and businesses. Many people don’t realize how beautiful cement can be as a walkway, or driveway option because what they think of is gray, bland, rough concrete. As Greensboro’s top-rated decorative concrete contractor, we would like to share some ideas about what concrete can be. Concrete is actually a great material that can be colored with pigments and dyes mixed into the cement. A very wide range of colors are available to make your concrete match the trim or decor of your home or accent instead. Concrete is very durable, does not easily fade, holds up very well to pressure washing and scrubbing, and does not bleed. It takes plain gray cement and transforms to look like bricks, stones, wood and other choices as well. Concrete also can be finished, polished, and sealed, with surface treatment to make it appear to be marble or other stone products.
Concrete Stamping Adds Beauty and Style
Truly a canvas, concrete lends itself beautifully to stamping. This process produces a pattern on the surface (which is later sealed) or embedded into the wet concrete, creating impressions that can be colored, done ombre, be antiqued or verdigris toned, or left as is. Your concrete can take on the look of flagstone, brick, wood, slate, cobble, river rock, pebble, and even plant based materials like reed or straw. Textured concrete, when done well by an experienced concrete artisan, concrete stamping and coloring can look so close to the real thing that people have to reach down and touch it to find it is concrete and not the real thing. Flowers, leaves, sea shells, feathers, pinecones, bark, and other items can be used to create impressions in wet concrete that are later left as is, or colored to create contrast. Our concrete specialists can create the look of marble, stone, mottled patterns, variegation, antiqued looks, and other special tones, patterns, and finishes. Your imagination and the skill of your concrete specialist can produce a wonderful, beautiful surface that does not use up dwindling natural resources such as local rare stone and hardwoods, and is much more cost effective. The end result is a unique, durable, beautiful surface that is easy to clean and stands up to years of use.
There are many advantages of this process including its strength and weather resistance which means you won’t have to worry about cracks in your driveway or patio concrete, when there’s frost on the ground or water pooling after rainstorms. It also looks beautiful, unlike any other paving material out there! You’ll love how easy it is to maintain as well – just sweep away dirt and debris from time-to-time and hose down if necessary!

Colored Concrete
There are three basic types of concrete stain, those being old style film-forming (very similar to paint, with the similar issues), penetrating, and acid base. At Greensboro Concrete Services, we prefer to utilize dyes and pigments that go into the concrete (best if you are certain you will not be wanting to change the color) or penetrating stain that is either acid or water based. The condition and age of your concrete determines the correct type of stain to use on already existing concrete, as well as the effect desired. We carefully inspect all concrete for cracks, oil stains, glues, sealers, wax, or any other issue or compound that could potentially affect the outcome and look you seek for your concrete patio or floor. Properly applied stain can renew the concrete floors in your home, on your pool deck or patio, or drive and walkways. It is environmentally safe, does not bleed or run off, is very durable, and cost effective. Staining and dying are especially good options for high traffic areas, such as a stamped concrete patio or on a driveway, where car tires and foot traffic quickly wear down a surface.
