Concrete Applications
Exposed Aggregate
A great way to have a more natural looking concrete area is to use the exposed aggregate technique. This occurs when different coloured stones and concrete are used in the concrete mix. The top surface of the concrete is washed off, exposing the coloured stones and leaving a natural and aesthetically pleasing finish that requires minimal maintenance.
Textured Spray Finish
Textured spray finishes come in multiple colour selections which is applied to the concrete by high pressure air spray or in some cases troweled onto the surface. This is a very versatile form of finish which can be used to create an attractive modern finish to your home paths, patios or driveway areas.
Colour Tinted Concrete
This is an effective way to add colour using various oxides mixed in with the plain grey concrete to compliment your landscape and achieve a unique appearance. This application is popularly used in driveways, patios, pool areas and walkways.
