Common Concrete Finishing Methods

Broom Finish

The broom finish is the most basic among concrete finishes, which is achieved with the help of screeds, trowels, and brooms. Immediately after the concrete is poured, our concrete finishers use the above-mentioned tools to level the concrete surface and to make sure the concrete is spread evenly and without any air pockets. Once the surface is leveled, brooms are dragged across it to create ridges that can provide enough traction, especially when the surface gets wet.

Exposed Aggregate Finish

This kind of finish is commonly found in public pavements and sidewalks. In this finish, after the concrete leveling is done, the top layer of the surface is sufficiently washed away to expose the gravel mixed in the concrete. This makes the surface not only attractive but also slip-resistant even during extreme weather conditions. Suits best for large outdoor areas and walkways where there is a lot of pedestrian traffic.

Salt Finish

This type of finish is predominantly used in preparing pool deck surfaces to make them slip-resistant and yet look smooth and attractive. The salt finish makes use of rock salt, which is added to the top layer of concrete when it is still wet to fill in the small pits on the surface. Once the surface gets dry, the rock salt is washed away to leave the pits exposed. This provides the much-needed traction to the surface beside the pool area.

Stamped Concrete Finish

This is the most common type of concrete finish found in modern homes and businesses. The reason behind stamped concrete finish being so popular is its ease and affordability. Using this method gives property owners a wide range of designs, patterns, and textures to choose from. Also, stamped concrete allows them to add to it any number of colors they want to create the kind of look any homeowner can only think of.
