Finishes and Textures.

Concrete is a versatile material and the exterior can be modified in a number of ways to achieve a specific appearance. Below are just some of the options offered by Southern Concrete.

Broom Finish

Broom Finish is the most common and widely used finish and very popular for residential flat work. This type of finish leaves the concrete slip resistant and best for traction.

Exposed Aggregate

Exposed Aggregate the act of revealing the stone underneath poured concrete. Only the surface of the concrete is removed to expose the aggregate below. Water and sometimes broom work is used to expose the desired level of aggregate.

Stamping

Stamping is the act of adding a texture or pattern to your concrete to make it resemble stone, brick, flagstone, tile, wood, or something similar. This is an excellent way to add character to your concrete.

Overlays

Want to spruce up the surface of old concrete? Overlays are used to permanently cover over surface imperfections. There are many types of overlays available but not all existing concrete can be resurfaced. If you are interested, contact us as we will have to survey the existing concrete area.
