This finishing technique results in a smooth, dense, and hard surface on concrete. Achieved by repeatedly passing a flat, rectangular tool made of metal over the concrete surface as it cures, it... Read more »
Concrete surfaces can be treated in various ways, resulting in different textures and functional properties. Two common finishes are a textured surface created by pulling a broom across freshly laid concrete, and... Read more »
A textured surface treatment applied to freshly poured concrete, this technique involves dragging a specialized broom across the surface before it fully hardens. The result is a subtle, slip-resistant texture often used... Read more »
A durable and aesthetically versatile surface is achieved through the application of a synthetic resin system atop a cement-based substrate. This seamless coating provides a protective layer, enhancing the underlying material’s resistance... Read more »
This textured surface treatment for hardened cement offers a non-slip quality, achieved by dragging a specialized brush across the concrete before it fully sets. The resulting striated pattern provides increased traction, especially... Read more »
Concrete surfaces require a finishing process to enhance their texture and functionality. Two common methods for achieving this involve using either a stiff-bristled broom or a brush across the freshly poured concrete... Read more »
Preparing and completing the interior surface of a below-grade foundation wall involves a series of steps designed to improve aesthetics, increase energy efficiency, and protect the living space from moisture intrusion. This... Read more »
This specific type of decorative surface results from applying rock salt crystals to freshly poured concrete before it cures. As the concrete hardens, the salt is embedded. Once fully cured, the salt... Read more »
