Exposed aggregate, integral color, polished concrete, and acid-stained finishes — decorative concrete for homeowners who want something better than gray.
Decorative concrete covers everything beyond standard gray broom finish — exposed aggregate (stones at the surface), integral color (color mixed into the concrete), polished finish (ground and polished smooth), acid stain (mottled translucent color), and combinations of all of the above.
These finishes cost more than standard concrete but dramatically less than pavers, flagstone, or natural stone. Done right, they look custom and last just as long as standard concrete.
Surface paste washed off to expose decorative stones. Premium look, great traction.
