Stamped Concrete is Versatile

Stamped concrete is available in a variety of textures, colors, and patterns; they also come in different structures and forms. These building materials can also mimic the look of natural stones, slates, bricks, wood planks, and more.
Apart from being versatile, stamped concrete can also:

Set Faster than Wood Planks or Natural Stones

Stamped concrete can be easily poured on existing surfaces, which means you’ll deal with less mess (and headaches) than if you worked with wood planks or grouted stones. With stamped concrete, preparing the surface, pouring the concrete, stamping the pattern, sealing, and stamping the ground can take only a few days. Before you know it, your floor is ready to go.

Decorative Concrete Installation Process

PREPARATION AND POURING

Excavation is the first step of the process. To create an even surface, the ground should be leveled carefully. The soil must also be compacted; if it is uncompacted, it will sink and shift, which can lead to cracks on the concrete’s surface.

Once the area has been compacted and leveled, professionals install wooden forms to corral the wet concrete.

Because of the tedious nature of the stamped concrete installation process, we don’t recommend treating it as a DIY project. If you’re considering the DIY route because you want to save money, you’ll only be saving on labor costs. You’ll still spend money on concrete and stamping tools. Also, you’ll have to spend more if you’re unhappy with your work.

So, instead of worrying about these things, leave the work to our trusted concrete contractors in Greenville, NC.

COLORING

Color hardener colors stamped concrete. The dry powder is applied to the concrete and cured long enough to avoid bleeding colors. Coloring stamped concrete involves flinging fistfuls of color hardener powder across a damp surface. Once the powder is applied, it soaks up the water for a few minutes.

APPLYING THE RELEASE AGENT

Once the desired shade has been achieved, it’s time for the stamping. But before stamping can be accomplished, it’s important to apply a release agent first. This reduces the likelihood of special plastic mats sticking during the removal process.

CONCRETE STAMPING

Stamping concrete involves applying interlocking pieces of plastic on the edge of the concrete. The concrete is then stamped down and carefully lifted before being placed into a new row.
