Stamped Concrete




Stamped concrete is concrete that imitates other materials such as stone, brick, tile, etc. While concrete is still in its plastic state (wet), large rubber mats or stamps are pressed into the surface. When the stamps are pulled up, a texture and/or pattern is left. Color is usually added to the surface prior to stamping or it can be added to the concrete mix itself. A release powder is broadcast accross the surface to keep the stamps from sticking to the concrete. The release often helps to further enhance the appearance by adding an antique effect.

Stamped concrete is fitting for many surfaces including patios, porches, driveways, sidewalks, pool decks, etc. It can also be used for vertical applications to create the look of stone or brick walls.

The biggest attraction of stamped concrete is its versatility. There are many textures, patterns, and colors that are readily available which makes design opportunites almost endless. You can also incorporate the use of stains and dyes to further customize the appearance of concrete.

Because of the beauty, versatility, durability, and cost of stamped concrete, it's popularity has surpassed any of the traditional paving materials.
