Stamped & Decorative Concrete

Custom Stamped Concrete Designs

Stamped concrete uses specialized tools to imprint patterns and textures into freshly poured concrete, creating the appearance of stone, brick, slate, wood, or custom designs. This technique allows you to achieve high-end looks at a fraction of the cost of natural materials, with superior durability and minimal maintenance requirements.

Popular Stamped Patterns

• •Ashlar Slate: Random rectangular patterns mimicking natural slate stone
• •Cobblestone: Old-world European cobblestone appearance for driveways and walkways
• •Wood Plank: Realistic wood grain texture without the maintenance of real wood
• •Flagstone: Irregular natural stone patterns for patios and pool decks
• •Brick Patterns: Running bond, herringbone, or basket weave brick designs
• •Seamless Textures: Smooth stone, travertine, or custom textures

Decorative Color Systems

Color transforms stamped concrete from simple imitation to stunning realism. We offer multiple coloring techniques that can be combined for depth and authenticity. Integral color is mixed throughout the concrete for consistent, fade-resistant color. Color hardeners provide rich surface color and increased durability. Acid stains create variegated, natural-looking tones that develop unique character over time.

Our color palette includes earth tones, grays, reds, browns, and custom blends to match your design vision. We can create multi-color effects that replicate the natural variation found in stone and other materials. All colored surfaces are sealed with high-quality sealers that protect against staining, UV fading, and weather damage.

Decorative Concrete Applications

Stamped and decorative concrete is versatile enough for virtually any horizontal surface. Popular applications include patios and walkways, pool decks, driveways, entryways, courtyards, and commercial spaces. Each application benefits from concrete's durability while achieving the aesthetic appeal of premium materials.

Additional Decorative Finishes

Beyond stamping, we offer exposed aggregate finishes that reveal decorative stones within the concrete matrix, creating beautiful, slip-resistant surfaces. Stained concrete uses acid or water-based stains to create rich, variegated colors perfect for interior floors and exterior surfaces. Polished concrete provides a sleek, modern appearance ideal for contemporary designs.

We can also incorporate decorative saw cuts, borders, and inlays to create custom designs that reflect your personal style. These techniques can be applied to new installations or used to transform existing concrete through resurfacing services.

Professional Installation & Care

Stamped concrete requires skilled craftsmanship and precise timing. Our experienced team coordinates the pour, color application, stamping, and finishing to achieve flawless results. We work efficiently to complete stamping while the concrete is in the optimal condition for pattern imprinting.

Maintenance is simple: regular cleaning and periodic resealing every 2-3 years keeps your decorative concrete looking beautiful for decades. We provide detailed care instructions and offer professional resealing services to protect your investment.
