To put it simply, patterned concrete (also known as stamped concrete) This is unlike traditional concreting, which typically involved using blocks to create your finish. It involves pouring concrete on a sub-base, then a colour is applied followed by a hardener, this also comes in different styles and colours.
We would excavate the area to the required depth (suds compliance) then put boards all the way around the area adding ACO drains where required , next we would pour to the required depths of concrete (the colour of your choice) then imprint it with the pattern you desire.
All specifications and processes of work are designed for footpaths/patios and residential drives.
If you require information for a heavy commercial application, please get in touch .
