Decorative concrete is a great way to enhance the look of your home, including walkways and flooring. TBC Ready Mix offers several finishing options to compliment your aesthetic. Traditional concrete is utilitarian, decorative concrete incorporates additional techniques and materials for more unique surfaces.
Stamped Concrete
Stamped Concrete is patterned or textured to mimic stone, brick, slate, cobblestone and other materials. The concrete mix is poured and allowed to partially set before stamping. While the concrete is still pliable molds are pressed into concrete to create the desired look.
Suitable for both residential and commercial applications; it is a popular finishing choice for patios, driveways, walkways and more. It enhances the appeal of concrete surfaces, making them look more expensive, while maintaining the durability of concrete.
Coloured Concrete
High-quality pigments are added during the mixing process to ensure uniform colour throughout the mix. The application is better than surface coloring. Surface coloring can suffer damage and reveal the natural concrete color underneath.
The colouring is permanent and non-fading, so you will be able to enjoy it for years to come. Concrete is low maintenance, requiring minimal upkeep to keep it looking good as new. It’s perfect for flooring, wall surfaces, patios, and kitchen counters.
Cost effective
Decorative concrete, whether it’s stamped and/or coloured, is a cost-effective alternative to natural materials. By nature, concrete is long-lasting and can withstand heavy traffic and harsh weather conditions. Regular sealing and cleaning helps protect the surface from stains and wear and keeps it looking fresh.
