Concrete Resurfacing Breathes New Life Into Your Home’s Curb Appeal

Concrete consists of marble sized rock (aggregate), sand, cement and water. As it’s poured the rock settles to the bottom and the sand stays at the top. We call this the cream.

On driveways many times the cream becomes worn off and then the aggregate shows. Also concrete contractors cut minimum saw cuts in the concrete and this often times causes the slab to crack.

Lucas Designs removes any contaminants like oil from the driveway, uses a special machine called a shot blaster to profile the concrete to accept the new overlay, fills in all cracks with a special Epoxy and then installs the overlay.

Color can be added to the overlay mix or it can be decoratively stained soon after. Additional saw cuts are put in to prevent cracking and then a acrylic sealer applied to preserve the color and protect the overlay from future stains.

This process, minus the saw cuts, can be applied indoors as well.
