Decorative Concrete
Concrete can be turned into
works of art. There are multiple ways to turn traditional gray concrete into awe
inspiring creations. Stamping is a rubber
or polypropylene "stamp" made to look like brick, flagstone, and other building
materials. A inexpensive way to stamp concrete is a technique called the
overlay.
Restrictions apply from the condition of the existing surface. Acid Staining is applied to existing
concrete and changes the color by a chemical reaction with the minerals in
the concrete. Stenciling is a paper
or cardboard stencil that is laid and pressed into freshly poured concrete. It
gives the appearance of cobblestone, brick and other patterns. Click on the

form.
