Stamped concrete has many residential and commercial applications and is stronger and more durable than conventional concrete.
Stamped concrete is typically done with 4000 psi strength concrete that is integrally colored and reinforced with 3/8” rebar or 6x6 10 gauge wire mesh, and fibermesh.
Before the concrete sets, a pattern is impressed into the surface. This is done with rubber mats, which come in an array of designs.
A colored release agent is broadcast evenly over the surface and serves two purposes, to release the stamp from the concrete and provide a secondary color.
When the concrete has set thoroughly, usually 24-48 hours, the excess release agent is power washed off, control joints are cut, and two coats of acrylic sealer is applied.
Stamped concrete is several times stronger than brick pavers and other paving systems. Unlike brick pavers, stamped concrete is non-porous when sealed, making it waterproof, stain, and weather resistant. With stamped concrete you avoid problems encountered with hand-laid products. You no longer have to worry about un-leveling due to frost, settlement, or vegetation growing between individual bricks.
