Stamped Concrete is the process of adding texture and color to concrete to make it resemble stone, brick, slate, cobblestone and many other products found in nature including wood,
fossils, shells and many more. Due to its versatility, durability,
and price, decorative concrete has become a leading design element among flat work finishers.
It can be used in
numerous applications, such as: custom designed concrete driveways, walkways, outdoor living areas, pool decks, patios, porch's and much more. By combining stamped, acid stain, stencil, or overlay techniques, we
can add rich textures and colors to create the hard scape of your dreams.

The installation
consists of pressing molds into the concrete while the concrete is still in its plastic state. Color is achieved by using
Dry Shakes or Color Hardeners, Powder or Liquid Releases, Integral Colors or Acid Stains. All these products may be combined
to create even more intricate designs.
History: Stamped Concrete has been around for about 50 of years, what it started in the late 50's as a novelty
product grew steadily until the mid 70' when stamped concrete experienced a huge growth spurt as more architects, contractors
and designers became aware of its benefits, lower costs and natural beauty. Stamped Concrete caused a major stir when it was
introduced at the World of Concrete in the mid '70s and since 1978 Decorative Concrete has been one of the show's
major attractions.
