Decorative Concrete Alternative to Tile
Sand Springs contractor Hawkeye Custom Concrete, gives homeowners pause when they are considering tile flooring. One look at Hawkeye’s scored and stained floors makes you look twice to realize it isn’t exquisite, expensive tile.
Hawkeye scores the substrate in a tile pattern, in any shape or configuration that is desired. They then apply an acid stain to mirror the subtle coloration nuances of hand made tiles or natural stone. A high gloss sealer wraps it all up in a shiny package that continues to glow year after year.
Decorative concrete flooring is an economical alternative to tile or natural stone. Often thousands of dollars less, it offers considerable value for the investment. Choosing decorative concrete is smart alternative to tile.

When your concrete patio gets damaged or just starts to look plain ugly, the last thing you want to do is replace it. Concrete replacement is labor-intensive, time-consuming and can get quite expensive. Want a better solution to total concrete patio replacement? Try resurfacing with SUNDEK of Washington.
Concrete technology is habitually evolving; thus, resurfacing products are more popular than ever. Patio and outdoor living space owners want to relish in the great outdoors – not wait inside while their patio gets rebuilt. Now, though, you can alter the appearance of your concrete patio with decorative concrete applications, such as stamping, coloring or stenciling – at a fraction of the time and price of a concrete patio replacement.
SUNDEK of Washington, who has been in the pool deck, patio and driveway resurfacing industry for 22 years, offer a multitude of designs and colors when it comes to concrete surfaces, big or small. How about a brick and mortar design for your patio? Or do you prefer the look of natural stone pavers in your backyard oasis? Either design option can easily be applied to the top of your existing concrete surface.
Resurfacing Products:
- SUNDEK’s Classic Texture is a textured concrete made of Portland cement, silica sand, epoxies and acrylics. It is applied on top of damaged concrete to reinstate the beauty of your old, cracked surface. This top coat is comfortable to walk on, even when the sun has been blazing down on it for hours; it’s also slip resistant for safety purposes.
- SUNDEK Sunstamp is an overlay that can give the appearance of Old World stone, but uses modern technology to create a fresh surface on top of your existing concrete. Decorative techniques can be applied, such as stamping or stenciling.
Dull cement in your patio area can be transformed into something quite breathtaking with SUNDEK of Washington’s resurfacing techniques. The finishing top coat after resurfacing is algae and mildew resistant, so maintaining your concrete patio or outdoor living space only requires a spraying down with a hose every once in a while.
