7/10/2023 0 Comments Stampable concrete overlay![]() ![]() Is there a specific stamped concrete sealer? A quality sealer will increase its durability and help maintain its beauty longer. Stamped concrete can last for decades without needing to be touched up. Additionally, an entire stamped concrete surface can be sealed, preserving the look of your stamped concrete for longer. Over time, pavers will also get knocked loose and need to be adjusted to avoid a tripping hazard. Weeds can pop up between pavers, while stamped concrete gives you the look of pavers without having to deal with the spaces between each paver. Is stamped concrete less maintenance than pavers? ![]() If you install lower-end pavers, it will be less expensive than installing stamped concrete initially, but in the end it will end up requiring more maintenance, and you’ll need to replace pavers as they get damaged or worn. If you install natural stone pavers, the cost of materials and labor will be around the same cost or more expensive than stamped concrete. You can contact a local SUNDEK contractor to get a quote. Stamped concrete cost depends on several factors such as the size of your space, the complexity of the project, and your location (the cost of concrete varies depending on where you live). Concrete stamping can quickly go wrong if you've never done it before. If there is not an existing concrete surface and new concrete needs to be poured, there are a lot of steps involved and a short window of time in which to get them done.Īlthough you can stamp concrete yourself, we recommend hiring an experienced professional to do the work as each step is critical and needs to be completed in a timely manner in order to get the look you want. You can customize your look with a variety of textures and colors. After the overlay is troweled or squeegeed over the surface, it can be stamped or scored to create a design or the look of flagstone, tile, custom slate, and more. If there is an existing surface to work with, a stampable overlay (such as SUNDEK’s SunStamp) can be applied over the surface, so the existing concrete slab does not need to be ripped out. The method used to stamp concrete depends on whether or not there is an existing concrete surface. ![]()
