Regular maintenance is crucial for maintaining the durability and appearance of the concrete surfaces on your property. Here are two key aspects to focus on: Regular inspections It’s important to inspect your concrete overlay every two years—that way, you’ll be able to identify potential issues like cracks and surface wear before they get too serious to repair. After the inspection, I recommend performing a light pressure wash to remove dirt, grime and other surface contaminants. After the wash, apply a high-quality sealant to protect the overlay and enhance its appearance. Sealing your concrete overlay helps prevent staining, water infiltration and UV damage, ensuring it remains beautiful for years to come. Reinforcement for stability Concrete is inherently strong, but to increase stability and prevent movement (especially in earthquake-prone areas), incorporating rebar reinforcement is essential. Iron rebar has become the industry standard for enhancing the durability and life span of concrete installations. The rebar helps distribute loads and stresses more evenly, reducing the risk of cracking and other structural issues.

customer often ask us what is the
maintenance after the installation of
the concrete and we recommend every 2
years do inspections to see the
condition of the concrete overlay after
the 2 years we recommend to do a light
pressure wash and seal to keep the
beauty of the concrete overlay

success with decorative concrete start
with crafting an ideal sample the
samples are crucial for demonstrating
the project outcome we recommend having
at least a couple of samples with the
final colors pattern and texture to see
the final results once they approve it
and then we move forward with the
project

the industry standard to assure
durability and long life for your
