Protect your concrete NOW from pop outs, scaling, and spalding. Every spring we get slammed with calls from people who's concrete didn't fair too well over the winter. The solution is tearout and replace if you keep putting off the proper maintenance. Protect your investment. Sealing your concrete will greatly reduce these issues.
With our harsh weather conditions it is important to periodically seal your concrete surface. Concrete is a porous product. When you allow water to penetrate your surface and it freezes, it will expand by 9 to 10 percent. This will cause your concrete to pit and deteriorate rather quickly. It is suggested that this be done every three years although we have sealers that will protect your concrete for a longer period of time. This will help to protect against salt and other chemicals and allow your concrete surface to be more easily cleaned. There are generally two types of sealers that work well in our conditions, membrane sealers ("A" below), and siloxane sealers("B" below). Consult your contractor to understand which concrete sealer will properly suit the needs of your situation.
IS YOUR STAMPED CONCRETE PATIO FADED?
Stamped concrete needs to be periodically antiqued and resealed to restore the beauty it had when it was a new product. This method involves cleaning the patio, generally with a powerwasher, and following it up with antiquing (to bring back the color), and a couple coats of sealer. Contact us if an 'antique and seal' is what you need.
