One of the more popular surfaces as of late is stamped
concrete, especially for those homeowners looking to put in a walkway or
exterior patio. Stamped concrete is also gaining popularity as a choice for
interior floors. There are a number of reasons why many Twin Cities-area
homeowners are choosing stamped concrete over other surfaces, like wood, brick
and stone. Here are reasons the Wohlwend Concrete team, serving
Minneapolis and St Paul, has gathered from homeowners.
Stain Resistant
When we install stamped concrete, we covered it with a
seal that can protect it from stains and add color. A stain fighter that looks
good? Sold.
Little Maintenance
Unlike brick and wood, stamped concrete doesn’t require
much in the way of maintenance to stay in good condition. While the occasional
wash might be necessary, it won’t be nearly as much as is the case with other
surfaces.
Tough to Crack
Stamped concrete can hold its own against cracks better
than regular concrete, provided its maintained as needed. You’ll also want to
have a professional handle your stamped concrete as special installation
techniques are necessary to maintain durability.
The Right Look
If you want the look of other surfaces, but don’t want to
have to deal with the problems, then you can combine the best of both worlds.
Stamped concrete mimic other materials, like wood, brick or stone. No matter
what look you want, we’re sure to have something that works for you.
