Staining works well on existing concrete that is structurally sound, clean, and free of heavy sealers or coatings. Stamping requires freshly poured concrete, since the pattern is pressed into wet material. If your slab is cracked, spalling, or heaving, we'll discuss resurfacing or replacement options during the on-site assessment.
Pricing depends on square footage, site access, and whether we're pouring new concrete or working with an existing slab. Pattern complexity, the number of colors, border or inlay details, sub-base preparation, demolition of old concrete, and drainage or grading needs all influence the final figure. We provide a written estimate after measuring your space.
Most residential patios and walkways take several days of on-site work, including demolition, grading, forming, pouring, stamping, coloring, and sealing. Weather plays a large role, since Springfield rain and temperature swings can delay pouring or curing. We'll give you a schedule with milestones and let you know promptly if conditions push dates.
Light foot traffic is usually fine within a day or two after the pour, but stay off until we clear it, especially before sealing. Vehicles should stay off a driveway considerably longer while the concrete gains strength. Patio furniture, grills, and planters should also wait until the sealer has fully cured.
Rinse it periodically, sweep off debris, and clean spills like grease or fertilizer before they sit. Avoid de-icing salts and metal snow shovels, which damage the surface and sealer. Plan on resealing every few years, depending on sun exposure and traffic, to keep colors rich and protect the texture. We'll explain the recommended schedule for your surface.
Concrete moves, so hairline cracking is normal and we use control joints to guide where it happens. Stains penetrate the surface and hold color well, though UV exposure gradually softens tones, which resealing helps counter. We'll walk your site, discuss joint placement, and explain what to expect for your specific slab and sun exposure.
