Vertical Concrete Overlays

Vertical concrete overlays can be applied to damaged concrete walls to make them smooth again. But a more popular use is for sculpting or stamping designs and patterns for decorative concrete walls. Overlays can create a 3D appearance of brick, stone, and slate or whatever type of sculpting is desired. Concrete walls, block walls, and even drywall will hold up vertical overlays. They are typically used on:

• Basement walls
• Retaining walls
• Fireplace surrounds
• Foundations
• Chimneys
• Swimming pool amenities

Vertical concrete overlays consist of cement, various aggregates, and polymer additives and can be applied up to 3 inches thick without sagging. Overlay mixes are flexible which allows them to be sculpted and stamped without cracking. Control joints are not required due to the strength and performance that the polymer additives provide. Curing is also unnecessary.

After sculpting and stamping and the concrete hardens, concrete stains can be applied to add various colors. The final step is sealing which can be a high gloss or matte finish.
