This two-tier concrete patio was first poured and finished by Marc Todd Concrete. After the concrete had cured sufficiently, we prepared the surface and applied two different concrete stain colors to create a decorative finished appearance.
Control joints were installed before the staining process, and the entire patio was properly prepared prior to application. The homeowner also requested a high-gloss finish, which was applied after the stain had adequate time to cure.
Concrete staining requires compatible products and proper preparation to produce a durable, long-lasting finish. This is especially important in Northern Indiana, where exterior concrete is exposed to significant seasonal temperature changes.
This decorative colored concrete project demonstrates one way an existing or newly poured concrete patio can be customized with stain and protective finishing.
