Slick Troweled A slick troweled design is a great way to give your concrete a smooth and gorgeous finish. It is a clean look that can make a huge difference in the end result. A slick troweled look will require that a professional gets the timing right as the application has to be done during a certain timeframe of the project. This may require multiple people to do the same job in order to accomplish it within the timeframe. This is a designation that Amarillo Concrete will be able to make for you. We are the experts in providing you with slick troweled concrete options. Broom Finishing Broom finishing is an option for decorative concrete that also requires an element of timing. The effect is achieved by using brooms with bristles in order to make a streaked or brushed look over the concrete. This is a very important reason to call a professional to perform this decorative concrete application. Having a professional available to make sure that the design is executed properly will go a long way in the outcome of your design. Broom finishing is very popular for outdoor living spaces like patios and decks. Exposed Concrete Exposed concrete options are great for driveways and walkways because they add a layer of stability. The exposed aggregate might make your surface more slip resistant so that your family can be safe during rainy or icy weather. There are lots of reasons to choose exposed concrete, including the customization options that are available to you. You can choose what colors or types of rocks will be in the aggregate and that will show through the concrete. Overlays Overlays are an inexpensive option for creating looks and designs over concrete that is used both indoors and outdoors. Overlays are designs that are basically applied to the surface of the concrete using an adhesive. These overlays will sometimes need repair and do require regular maintenance in order to keep up the look of the design. They can be very thin or very thick. |
