Stamped concrete

Want the luxurious look of stone, brick, or even wood without the hefty price tag? Stamped concrete is the way to go! It's imprinted with various patterns, textures, and colours, creating a stunning effect of natural materials. Perfect for driveways, patios, and walkways, this stylish option adds elegance to your outdoor spaces.

Acid-stained concrete

If you're looking to add an artistic touch to your floors, give acid stained concrete a go. The chemical reaction creates beautiful marbling effects and earthy hues, turning your bland floors into works of art.

Coloured concrete

Concrete got colourful! Say goodbye to traditional grey concrete and hello to a world of colours! Coloured concrete gives you the freedom to match your home's theme or create eye-catching contrasts. 

Exposed aggregate concrete

Let the natural beauty shine through with exposed aggregate concrete. By removing the top layer of cement paste, you expose the aggregate, which can be pebbles, stones, glass beads – the options are many. It's perfect for pathways, outdoor kitchens, and garden walkways, adding a unique touch to your spaces.

Polished concrete

Sleek, modern, and oh-so-glamorous, polished concrete is a popular choice for indoors. By grinding and buffing the surface, you get a glossy, mirror-like finish. Use it in your living room, dining area, or even your bathroom to bring out a chic and refined vibe.

Decorative overlays

Don't want to remove your existing concrete – just freshen it up a bit? Decorative overlays come to the rescue! These thin coatings can be stamped, stained, or textured to give your current concrete a complete makeover. It's ideal for rejuvenating tired-looking floors or patios.
