Stenciling has the same amount of design flexibility, which is why it can be a great alternative to decorative stamping. Stenciling uses disposable paper stencils to impart brick or stone patterns in fresh concrete instead of rubber stamps. Because the stencils mask off the underlying surface, they leave behind realistic “mortar joints” the color of the gray concrete base. By applying a dry-shake color hardener to the exposed concrete before stencil removal, you’ll get the appearance of individual stones or bricks that have been mortared together. Stencils for concrete come in a wide array of patterns, ranging from running-bond brick to stone, slate and tile.

Concrete pools can eventually begin to age and form hollow spots, sometimes called “pop-ups”. Sometimes nothing can be done to prevent this. Also, sunken concrete and chipping can also occur. If left untreated, these problems could get worse.
We can restore your damaged and/or uneven swimming pool deck back to the solid, attractive way it once appeared.

One great alternative to decorative stamped concrete, that still allows for flexible design options, is stenciled concrete. Stenciling uses disposable paper stencils to impart brick or stone patterns in fresh concrete, instead of rubber stamps. Because the stencils mask off the underlying surface, they leave behind realistic “mortar joints” the color of the gray concrete base. By applying a dry-shake color hardener to the exposed concrete before stencil removal, you’ll get the appearance of individual stones or bricks that have been mortared together.

Spring is officially here! Thinking about getting a pool installed this year? Concrete can make a pool even more inviting than usual. The concrete laid around pool decks can be colored or stenciled and can be laid down in pavers. These pavers are long lasting and resist both salt and slips. Even chlorine won’t mar the colors. The customer can choose from a great variety of paver sizes and shapes. The other advantage of pool pavers is that they can be replaced individually if they break or crack. The spaces between them are filled with polymer sands that resists erosion.

Did you know concrete can be stamped with a variety of different patterns that resemble expensive stone or ceramic tile? This is why it is perfect for patios. You can even have a rock salt finish, which gives it a pleasing texture and also makes it skid resistant. This is ideal not only for patios but for pool surrounds. The look is of a weathered and lightly pitted rock. The floor of the patio can also have an exposed aggregate surface. This is when the concrete is poured and its skin is removed, which reveals the aggregate beneath. This is also good for pool surrounds, walkways and other places that get a lot of traffic.
