1. Decorative Stamped Concrete Stamped concrete has become one of the most popular ways to color and texture concrete,especially since it costs approximately a third less than many natural materials. There is a wide array of options available when it comes to choosing patterns and textures. Precision engineered stamps make possible a high degree of creativity. It is now possible to mimic and even enhance the look and feel of natural stone to finely tooled slate to perfectly set cobbles. Patterns from random stone to used brick to even the look of wood planking, all available in various sizes, joints, grout lines and configurations. Adding color to these textures can create an endless array of decorative effects that harmonize with the surrounding landscapes. Read More |
2. Interlocking Pavers
Concrete pavers are much stronger, denser and much more durable than concrete or asphalt. While they are initially more expensive then concrete or asphalt, over time they are actually cheaper. After a few seasons concrete and asphalt may develop unsightly cracks which may be costly to repair. Pavers on the other hand are virtually maintenance free. If any pavers do need to be replaced due to staining or settling, the offending stones can be removed and replaced.
Reno Hardscapes offers creative design solutions and superior installation for all types of pavers. Call today and let our experts help you decide the right paver and look for your home. Read More |

8. Exposed Aggregate Finishes Exposed aggregate finishes contrast beautifully with plain concrete or other decorative treatments such as stamping, staining and integral coloring. An exposed aggregate surface is obtained by placing the concrete and then removing the outer skin of cement to uncover the concrete's aggregate. The type of aggregate desired is either batched into the concrete mix or seeded into the surface of the mix after it is placed. Because of its durability and skid resistant surface, exposed aggregate finishes are ideal for almost any flatwork. Read More |
9. Concrete Crack Repair Concrete cracking is typically due to dry shrinkage in concrete, movement in the subbase, or excessive weight applied to a non-structural slab. Cracks are not only an eyesore, but they may hinder the value of the home or structure. Epoxies and polyurea products exist which are suitable for their repair. The repair of the crack alone will only minimally improve the aesthetics of the slab. To enhance the slab to nearly new condition, an overlay or micro topping application would be needed. Read More |
10. Decorative Concrete Overlays It is now easy to give any concrete surface a complete facelift at a much lower cost then their removal and replacement. There are multiple options available for achieving any look imaginable with a concrete overlay. Polymer overlays can be applied in layers as thin as a credit card or up to several inches thick. They will adhere to existing concrete and resist damage from salt, chemicals, and freeze thaw conditions. However, it is important to note that not all concrete can be resurfaced. The underlying base concrete must be sound. Concrete that is heaving, has severe cracks, apalling due to freeze thawing, or resting on unstable sub-base is not suitable for overlays. Read More |
