Love the look of natural stone, but hate the price and time it takes to install? Well, in the Greenville and Appleton areas, there is a general contractor who specializes in stamped concrete applications, which is an alternative to natural stone, brick or masonry work: McHugh Construction, Inc. They have been serving residents and business owners for over a decade with custom concrete repairs, removal, and now – decorative concrete techniques.

Where can stamped concrete be utilized?

Stamped concrete looks great on patios, driveways, pool decks, and courtyards. Basically, stamped – or imprinted – concrete can be used anywhere cement is utilized and visible.

What are the benefits of stamped concrete?

The main benefit of stamped concrete is that it is completely customizable. No two projects are ever alike. Color and pattern options are vast, so if you don’t know exactly what you want, McHugh Construction, Inc. can make recommendations based on their expertise and experience. Another attractive quality of stamped concrete is that it is less expensive than natural stone, such as cobblestone, slate, or flagstone. It is also quicker and less labor-intensive to install; and, once properly sealed, easier to clean because it doesn’t absorb stains like natural stone.

So what are you waiting for? Call McHugh Construction, Inc. today for a FREE quote on your stamped concrete project at 920.757.9779!

Without epoxy, even the thickest of concrete will deteriorate over time – especially in a garage setting. The only way to protect your surface is to coat it with a reliable epoxy floor system. Not only will you be adding an extra layer of security, you will also make your flooring easier to clean because stains cannot penetrate epoxy like they can with just bare, unsealed concrete. The process is simple: A thin layer of concrete will be removed from the area you want to add epoxy. It is then cleaned and cracks will be repaired. Then, a primer is applied to the concrete surface. After 24 hours of dry time, the surface gets sanded, and then cleaned again to remove debris. The top coat is then applied (color chips can also be added at this point if desired). On the third day, a clear top coat is applied to add an impermeable layer to your concrete surface. Seventy-two hours later, your surface is ready to be used and enjoyed!

There are a lot of factors that go into pricing a polished concrete floor, or any floor system for that matter. Sure, polished cement floors are easy to maintain and practically effortless to love, but they are tricky to price. Prices for polished concrete can run as low as $3/sq. ft. and run as high as $10/sq. ft.

Before you start collecting bids from concrete contractors in the D.C. area, know the answers to these questions:

1) Are you doing a floor replacement, repairing an existing concrete surface or do you want to implement a brand new polished concrete floor?

2) How many square feet to you need to cover?

3) Do you want a decorative concrete application, such as acid staining or stenciling?

4) When it comes to polishing, do you want to see your reflection in your floor, or do you like a flatter, more matte appearance?

Have the answers to these questions about your potential polished concrete flooring project ready to go, and then call Maryland Polished Concrete for a quote. After all, they are the experts in the D.C. area when it comes to polished concrete.

No one likes cracks in their concrete. Cracks are ugly, time consuming to repair, and just a plain ol’ hassle. Do you fix them yourself? You can try, but you really should leave concrete crack repair up to the experts.

What if you don’t know any concrete repair experts? Well, you would do the same thing if your car needed fixed: Research a few local concrete repair companies and pick the one that you trust (which will hopefully also be the one you can afford).  As far as we know here at Concrete Designs, there is only one nationwide concrete repair and resurfacing company that consistently delivers when it comes to quality concrete, and that company is Sundek. They don’t just fix cracks in your concrete, though. Sundek actually takes things a step further and beautifies your concrete, whether the surface be a driveway, pool deck, patio or sidewalk.

For nearly 40 years, Sundek has lead the way in terms of concrete resurfacing and revitalization. They can take any cement surface and turn it into something of beauty, something you can appreciate for years and years to come. But get this: Resurfacing with products created by Sundek are often times more affordable than concrete replacement and repairs. How is this possible? When concrete gets damaged, most people think you have to have your entire slab demolished, then repoured, which can create quite a mess for homeowners. But the truth is, you really only need to remove the first inch or two of damaged concrete to fix the problem. Once the top layer is removed, Sundek will resurface the area with a substance that is concrete based, only better. It’s stronger, slip resistant, and even heat resistant.

So when your driveway, patio, or concrete pool deck needs repaired, call Sundek, the national leader in concrete revitalization. They are affordable, efficient, and offer an array of decorative options for any cement surface. For more information, call 877.478.6335.

Did you know there is a flooring choice that can save you money, look great, is simple to maintain, and is eco-friendly? I know it’s hard to believe, especially after you have exhausted yourself doing extensive research for a flooring system that encompasses all your needs. No, it’s not hardwood. Carpet? Try again. The best flooring for virtually all flooring applications is – hands down, without a doubt – polished concrete.

It looks smooth, sleek and sophisticated, just like marble, but it costs a fraction of the price; and maintenance is a breeze – just soap and maybe a yearly polishing. That’s it! So you can forget about vacuuming (which is great for energy conservation), and as an added bonus, polished concrete won’t hold on to mold or nasty allergens, so people with allergies see dramatic improvements in their health.

Concrete sounds like the perfectly polished solution to your flooring needs. It doesn’t matter if you are looking for residential, commercial or industrial flooring systems, as polished concrete is appropriate for all applications. But here’s what you need to keep in mind: Not all polished contractors are created equally. The art of polishing concrete is complex, so if you hire someone who doesn’t know what he is doing, you might end up with uneven or unattractive floors. Make sure you hire a polished concrete company that has been in the business for a long time, has a solid reputation and can show you their previous work.
