We believe in our product's numerous advantages over all other decorative surfaces. Its combined beauty and strength makes it the ideal product for today's consumer, providing significant savings over the cost of hand pavers, brick, stone, or tile. Decorative concrete adds charm and elegance, looks genuine, is long lasting and durable, and requires very little maintenance. It can be used for restoration as well as new projects.

Qualities of Stamped Concrete

The very process of creating a decorative concrete pad brings about many redeeming qualities not found with normal concrete. Designer-Crete's "no compromise" position on the quality of the products we use, along with our strict job standards produce the best product in the business. Add our design and artistic skills and your landscape will be transformed into a work of functional art.

Concrete Surface Qualities

Concrete Surface Qualities 5,000 PSI (hardened) Superior Color Retention Scale Resistant Stain Resistant Long-wearing Freeze/Thaw Resistant/De-icing Salts Slip Resistant Low Maintenance

Our process for the coloration of concrete serves two purposes: creating beautiful colors and hardening the surface strength to 5,000 PSI. The primary benefit is increased resiliancy to the elements that traditionally damage the appearance of concrete. This is especially important in harsh winter climates where the effects of freeze/thaw cycles and de-icing salts can cause scaling and shelling that exposes aggregates. Our hardended surface, with its superior wear resistance, resists this damage, especially in high traffic areas. It's slip resistant, low maintenance and, after sealing, becomes stain resistant and has enduring color retention. Designer-Crete offers even harder surfaces where necessary.

Restoration

There are many ways to restore or enhance existing flatwork. At Designer-Crete we use our discretion in each individual circumstance to determine if there are quality ways to achieve restoration. While we are not advocates of all methods available to the consumer, some restoration methods can produce quality work and satisfaction.
