This surfacing technique involves the application of integral pigment to a concrete mix, followed by a textured finish created with a specialized broom. The addition of color enhances the aesthetic appeal of... Read more »
This finishing technique imparts a smooth, dense surface to concrete. Performed while the concrete is still plastic, it involves using a flat, bladed tool to compress and refine the surface. As an... Read more »
A textured surface achieved on concrete is created by dragging a specialized tool across the freshly poured material. This process imparts a linear, grooved pattern. The depth and spacing of the grooves... Read more »
The surface treatment method for concrete involves embedding salt crystals into the freshly poured and leveled surface. As the concrete cures, these crystals create small indentations, leaving a textured and slip-resistant profile... Read more »
A textured wall coating applied to concrete surfaces, mimicking the appearance of traditional stucco, offers a durable and aesthetically pleasing exterior or interior finish. This technique involves applying layers of a cementitious... Read more »
This architectural technique involves embedding coarse sodium chloride crystals into freshly poured concrete. As the concrete cures, the salt is washed away, leaving behind a pitted, textured surface. This method creates a... Read more »
A specific level of surface treatment applied to hardened cement-based materials results in a smooth, uniform appearance free from significant imperfections. This outcome is achieved through meticulous placement, consolidation, and finishing techniques.... Read more »
A concrete surface treatment process is employed to achieve a specific aesthetic and functional outcome. It involves allowing moisture to gradually rise to the surface of freshly placed concrete, typically after initial... Read more »
A smooth, durable surface achieved by skilled cement masons using a specific finishing technique. This method involves employing a large, flat tool to refine the freshly placed material, resulting in a consistent... Read more »
Surface treatments applied to cured slabs enhance the aesthetic appeal and functional properties of outdoor living spaces constructed from this ubiquitous building material. These treatments range from simple texturing techniques to intricate... Read more »
