Concrete isn’t one-size-fits-all. Different finishes give it personality and pizzazz, making it more than just a plain, grey slab. Enter Stampede Concrete. They’re the magicians of the concrete world, transforming bland surfaces into works of art.
First, let’s rap about the classic broom finish. It’s old school but still cool. They run a broom over wet concrete, leaving texture that’s slip-resistant. Perfect for driveways, sidewalks – anywhere you don’t want to breakdance unintentionally.
Next, we slide into the exposed aggregate finish. It’s like unwrapping a toffee and finding nuts. They pour concrete, chuck a bit of water, et voilà – the aggregate is out for everyone to see. This finish is both eye-catching and rough underfoot. Think patios, pool decks, and spots where aesthetics and practicality dance beautifully together.
Stampede Concrete also loves playing with the float and trowel finish. Here, they take a float or trowel and work magic before the concrete sets. You get different choices, from the swirl to the traditional flat, even a bit of rough texture. Perfect for someone wanting a dash of elegance without shouting.
Ever heard of the polished concrete finish? It’s concrete on glam mode, like Cinderella on the dance floor. The surface gets ground down, then buffed to a high sheen. It’s sleek, shiny, and superb for interiors and commercial spaces that scream sophistication.
The salt finish might sound like something from your kitchen, but it’s concrete’s cool cousin. Before the concrete dries, they scatter salt, like confetti at a parade. After it dissolves, tiny indents are left, creating a subtle, sandy texture. Swanky yet practical, it’s a hit around pool decks.
Now, for those who crave creativity, Stampede Concrete has stamped finishes. Imagine your favorite cookie cutter, but for concrete. They press patterns into the wet mix, mimicking brick, stone, even wood. The result? A luxurious look without the hefty price tag of natural materials.
