Summary of Services
Concrete Sealing: This process involves applying a protective coating to your concrete surfaces. This process not only enhances the appearance of the concrete by enriching its color but also provides protection against moisture, stains, and the blistering Arizona sun. Sealing stamped concrete is recommended for both newly stamped and existing concrete to extend its lifespan and maintain beauty and its structural integrity.
Concrete Staining: This is a transformative process that adds depth and character to your concrete surfaces. Whether you prefer a subtle, natural look or a bold, vibrant color, using stained concrete patterns will allow you to customize your concrete to complement your architectural style and landscaping. Staining is ideal for both indoor and outdoor concrete surfaces, offering durable and fade-resistant results.
Concrete Repair: Over time, concrete surfaces may develop cracks, spalling (this is when pieces of the concrete chip off over time), or other forms of damage due to factors such as harsh weather, settling, or heavy use. Our expert contractors can restore the functionality if there is severe damage as well as the overall appearance of your concrete. From minor crack repairs to more extensive surface restoration, we’ve got you covered!
Concrete Patio repair process
Sealing Process:
- Surface Preparation: Our team will do a thorough cleaning to remove dirt, stains, and debris. Not the most exciting, and definitely not fun, but super important to the success of the project.
- Repair Imperfections: If there are areas of your concrete that would not be able to be stained properly due to damage, we’ll get those fixed up.
- Sealer Application: Next, we’ll apply high-quality sealant using rollers.
- Curing: In order for the sealant to cure and bond properly with the concrete, we suggest waiting a full 48 hours and sometimes up to 7 days before using the area. We’ll let you know what to expect so you can plan around this curing time.
- Final Inspection: Of course we’ll ensure even coverage and a smooth finish, but we’ll also make sure there’s nothing that will cause problems to the curing process or the integrity of the concrete down the road.
Staining Process:
- Very similar to the Sealing process above, the finishing is different though…
- Finishing: Our team will buff or polish the stamped concrete to achieve desired sheen level.
Repair Process:

- Preparation: Cleaning and removal of damaged concrete.
- Repair: Application of the appropriate repair materials such as epoxy injections, patching compounds, or overlays.
