EXPOSED CONCRETE SERVICES CALGARY
Over the course of years, exposed aggregate concrete has become a trendy choice in Calgary. It is because the normal grey-colored broom finished concrete may not appeal to homeowners. Exposed aggregate concrete is actually a decorative version of normal concrete. It is most commonly used for making concrete patios, concrete driveways, and concrete walkways. It is so different from the normal broomed type of concrete that it uses a combination of stone, sand, and pebbles. These are further than used for making different decorative patterns and designs. To bring out the beauty and finish in the designs, the exposed aggregate concrete then undergoes the process of seeding.
The reason why exposed aggregate concrete has become so common is because of its reasonable price. A Calgary contractor can help make driveways, patio, or walkway for your place. The concrete’s surface is further enhanced by using decorative rocks, crushed glass, and even quartzite. Some Calgary concrete contractors even strip the fresh concrete’s surface to expose the aggregate that comes mixed with concrete.
Different styles and patterns of exposed concrete give you the freedom to tailor your landscape the way you want it to make it appear more aesthetically appealing. There are two major differences between exposed concrete and normal concrete. Firstly, it has a top layer that is protruding from the surface. Secondly, normal concrete has only one color that is grey. While in exposed concrete, you can choose from the different decorative aggregate options.
Installation of Exposed Concrete is very much like normal concrete. The only difference comes when the surface is partially cured, Calgary concrete contractors use water along with sand blasting to remove some parts of the cement. It is an essential step, as it helps in making the protruding surface of the Exposed Concrete.
broom finish concrete calgary
Among the different concrete Calgary finishing procedures, the broom finished concrete surface is a very popular choice, especially if you are looking to beautify your concrete patios, walkways, driveway, or wall stairs. When it comes to concrete finishing, broom finished concrete is an affordable option you can choose from. It is not a new finishing procedure; in fact, Calgary concrete contractors have been opting for the broom finish concrete method for a long time.
Broom finished concrete is also known as brush finished concrete. It is a process where a broom or a brush is used to create a textured surface area on the concrete. This texture gives good resistance to slipping. It is the reason why Calgary concrete is usually broom finished. When the ice starts to melt during winters, there are many issues regarding the drainage of water.
The textured broom finished concrete helps to divert the water towards a drain, improving your drainage system on the whole. It not only makes your landscape beautiful, but it also makes it safe. You will not have to face any unwanted accidents as a result of slipping. It is the reason why many patios, pools, and spas have a broom finish concrete work.
Even if the surface area is moist or wet, the broom finished concrete ensures maximum security.
Another great thing about broom finished concrete is that it enhances the durability of the surface area. In areas that have the maximum amount of traffic. The texture of broom finished concrete surface will increase the traction in comparison to a stamped concrete finish. Also, it requires very little or no specific maintenance.
Generally, broom finished concrete is done in outdoor areas of your landscape. It is because it works to beautify and make the area of your landscape more appealing to look at. In addition, broom finished concrete gives you an excellent grip even in the moistest areas. So, if you are looking to make your area skid-resistant at a reasonable cost. In that case, we recommend you get broom finished concrete on your landscape as it offers multiple benefits compared to normal concrete finishing. Since broom finishing isn’t an easy task to do yourself, it is a better option to use the Calgary contractor’s help to install a broom finished concrete more professionally.

Moreover, getting a stamped concrete finish is a cost-friendly option. It will beautify and increase the overall value of your landscape by adding a stylish and decorative touch.
INSTALLATION
The installation of stamped concrete is a very tricky process. It may seem fairly easy at a glance. People think that the installation of stamped concrete is only about mixing, pouring and stamping. But, it is not so! Because of how easy the installation process may seem, there is enormous room for error, especially if you do the process yourself. You need to have the perfect mix of cement powder and water. Adding too much water to the solution can make it runny. While adding too little water can cause problems like cracking or bulging. So, it would be best to use concrete contractors’ services to add a professional touch to the stamped concrete surface.
LONGEVITY
A stamped concrete surface is very durable, ensures longevity and use for an extended period. Moreover, it has minimal maintenance, and it is straightforward to clean a stamped concrete surface. Plus, you don’t face any problems related to stamping in stamped concrete. That’s why you don’t need to spend additional costs to get it repaired or sealed. It is an excellent choice for the different weather conditions of Calgary. Even in high traffic areas, stamped concrete won’t buckle in or sink under pressure if installed correctly. So, if you are looking for a hassle-free and cost-friendly option for surface finishing on different areas of your landscape stamped concrete design would be the best choice.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Stamped concrete requires very little or low maintenance to keep it in its best shape. It is the main reason why people opt for stamped concrete surfaces for finishing different areas on their landscape. Compared to other finishing materials, stamped concrete is a very budget-friendly option since it saves all the additional costs relating to repair and maintenance. To clean a stamped concrete surface, all you need to do is to run a broom over to clean all the debris and dirt settled on it. Besides, if you want your stamped concrete surface to last for a lifetime, increase its functionality. You can opt to get it sealed periodically.
colored concrete in Calgary
Moving with the latest developments in the era, people have stopped using traditional grey concrete and consequently, colored concrete has taken its place. Basically, colored concrete is grey concrete that is dyed with different colors and stains. It is the most flexible construction material available in the construction industry that has endless decorative uses. It is easy to use as conventional concrete but comes with added benefit since it can be colored in your desired option.
The idea to color concrete by adding iron oxide dates back to the early 1950s and up till today, it has been widely used in manufacturing industries. The forecasted growth in concrete construction means that the usage of colored concrete will increase in near future. Usage of colored concrete is a little bit expensive than standard concrete but the final outcome will make your work stand out.
concrete coloring process
The first question that comes to your mind is that how concrete is colored? Do we spray it? Or do we use paint? So basically we do neither of these. In fact, we use iron oxide particles. These pigments can be in granular, powder, or liquid form and each one of these has its advantages and disadvantages. The grain of iron oxide particle is ten times smaller than the grain of cement so when we add a sack of colored iron oxide pigments, they just cover up the cement grains and it then gives colored concrete.
With boring, outdated grey concrete designs people have moved on to aesthetic colored concrete designs. It is a great option to create an artistic presentation of concrete. Large concrete patios and concrete walkways are usually covered with colored concrete to give them a better look than they would appear with grey concrete. Moreover, you can use an endless variety of colored concrete in sidewalks, pool deck, and garage floors.
why we use colored concrete
There are various key benefits of using colored concrete. Durability of concrete makes sure that it lasts for years to come that too with little maintenance. Therefore, colored concrete on your floor is cost-effective as it would rarely require any maintenance. Moreover, color consistency is another benefit that makes colored concrete a viable option to select. Along with the wide variety of color options to select, the colored concrete is dyed in such a manner that each batch produces the same exact colors and gives a similar tone to the whole design.
colored concrete applications in calgary
Colored concrete can be molded into any shape and can be used to produce any texture and design. Hence it gives you the freedom to create whatever you want. You should also know some essential points to keep in mind while taking care of colored concrete. Firstly, colored concrete should be cured properly to prevent surface cracking. You need to know that it can fade due to exposure. Therefore, make sure to have a professional Calgary concrete company so that they can have it protected with a clear sealer.
