Decorative Concrete Overlay
As
the years go by, a homeowner's property starts to show wear and tear. No matter if it is the driveway, patio, or
walkway, the elements of the weather out there eventually do a job on these
areas. No matter if it is in the north
with the harsh winters or in the south with the excessive heat. So what is a homeowner to do? Either start over from scratch or use a great
product called decorative concrete overlay.
After all, the home is one of the most important purchases that people
will ever make and it is essential to make the right choice when it comes to
home remodeling.
Basically
what is happening here is that area of deterioration is getting a much needed
face-lift of the concrete nature. This
is a much cheaper procedure than the alternative of removal of the old concrete
and the replacement after that. This
great idea can be used for the following areas:
1. Driveways
2. Patios
3. Pool decks
4. Walkways
5. Entryways
6. Inside the home
So
where do you start? When using this type
of procedure, there is an endless supply of color combinations and designs that
one can go with. Thus, finding the right
combo is the first thing to do. Finding
this combo has to include your requirements for these factors: price of the job, how the final product will
look, durability of the area, and maintenance in future years.
So
exactly what is decorative overlay? It
is a cement based overlay that contains blended polymer resins with sand,
cement, and other additives that will improve the durability and appearance of
the area. When applied to the area of
interest, the diameter of the overlay applied can as little as 2mm to as high
as 5cm. What happens upon application is
that the substance will bond to the existing concrete and provide many great
benefits of protection. Things such as
preventing damage from UV exposure, a wide variety of chemicals, salt, and scuffing. Homeowners especially love to use this
product for the pool deck because it keeps it cool and make walking on it
without shoes a pleasure.
So
as you can see, using decorative overlay can work in many situations. However, if the preexisting concrete has severe
cracks in it or the area is not stable, resurfacing most like will not be the
choice to go with. That is when you will
have to rip out the old concrete and replace with new.
