Things You Should Know About Decorative Concrete Sacramento, CA

July 23, 2022/in Uncategorized/by guardian

When you hire someone to put decorative concrete in your home or office, you’ll entrust them with the project’s design and construction. Decorative concrete is a durable, long-lasting material that can last for decades. In addition, it’s easy to maintain and repair if something goes wrong. Listed below are several things you should know about decorative concrete. When considering hiring a contractor to install a concrete countertop, you’ll want to be sure to talk to them about what you’re looking for.

 

Decorative concrete can be applied in many different ways. Its many finishes include textured, stamped, integral, coatings, and acid etch. Many people use it on outdoor patios and walkways, but it can also be used indoors. Many homeowners choose stains and overlays to dress up the interior concrete of their homes. Other contractors specialize in facades and custom designs, such as fireplace surrounds and backsplashes.

 

Another essential thing to consider before hiring a decorative concrete contractor is the condition of your slab. If you hire a contractor to put decorative concrete, you should schedule the installation with other trades. Otherwise, the contractor may cause damage to the surface, resulting in poor cosmetic work. For example, plumbers are known to spill liquids and hot solder on concrete slabs. Carpenters have even placed things on the slabs, leaving their tracks behind.

 

When hiring a decorative concrete contractor, select one who specializes in the type of decorative concrete you want. Some contractors specialize in certain types of decorative concrete and aren’t very creative. Find a contractor whose creative skill sets match your design needs. Some companies specialize in one aspect of decorative concrete and don’t know how to place and finish it. For instance, the company Evolve specializes in seamless walls and wall panels, and they also do place-and-finish work on doors and decor pieces.

 

While it may look beautiful, decorative concrete can be a wet tripping hazard. There are various ways to improve the traction of newly stamped concrete. If you’re concerned about traction, ask your contractor about applying a non-slip compound before applying a decorative finish. Also, remember that newly stamped concrete will require regular maintenance, which is crucial if you want it to last for years.

 

Before pouring, you can add a tint or dye to the concrete or apply a stain. Numerous concrete stain options are available on the market today, including solid and semi-transparent shades. Most stains are inexpensive but wash the surface thoroughly before applying the stain. Afterward, allow the paint to dry completely before applying the next layer of concrete. This will ensure a durable consistency that will be durable and attractive.
