How Stamped Concrete Works: Our Process

Creating a beautiful stamped surface is a multi-stage process that requires skill and an eye for detail.

1. Pouring & Base Color: We start by pouring a high-strength concrete slab with your primary base color mixed in. This ensures that even if the surface is ever scratched, the color remains consistent.
2. Applying Release Agent: A secondary, contrasting color, known as a release agent, is applied to the surface. This adds depth and realistic texture, mimicking the grout lines or variations found in natural stone.
3. Stamping the Pattern: While the concrete is at the perfect consistency, we press high-quality stamps into the surface to create the texture and pattern of your choice, be it slate, cobblestone, or wood plank.
4. Detailing, Curing & Sealing: After an initial curing period, we pressure wash the surface, detail any joints, and apply multiple coats of a high-gloss or matte sealant. This crucial final step protects the surface from weather and stains while dramatically enhancing the colors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is stamped concrete slippery? The texture from the stamping process naturally provides more grip than smooth concrete. Additionally, we can mix a special non-slip additive into the final sealant coat, which is standard practice for our pool decks and highly recommended for walkways.

Will the color of my stamped concrete fade over time? Our use of integral base colors and high-quality, UV-resistant sealers ensures your color remains vibrant for many years. To keep it looking brand new, the protective sealant should be reapplied every 3-5 years, a simple maintenance task we can also perform.

How does stamped concrete compare to pavers? Stamped concrete offers a continuous, solid surface, meaning no weeds can grow through joints and no individual pavers can shift or settle. It's often faster to install and provides a wider range of seamless patterns than pavers.
