patterned concrete for patio

Postby Citrusy » Sat Jun 23, 2018 12:51 pm

Hello all,
Has anyone come across a company who has laid concrete, then using a template proceeded to imprint a patten in the concrete?

Any help or advice please.

We had our terrace done a few years ago by a company called Creative concrete, I think they have now gone out of business, but I wouldn't recommend having it done, as every year you have to have it re-sealed as the shine goes off the concrete and it looks awful, we have since had our terrace re laid with non slip tiles, looks much better.

There was a post a few weeks back regarding this subject, they mentioned Don Aluminio, and [email protected]. Hope this helps.

If you decide to have it done be very careful, pick a professional company & have a look at examples of their work.

Unfortunately we did not and our driveway has numerous cracks, puddles when it rains and discolouration. It will need to be dug up and redone after a possible court case; digging up the driveway up will add 2,000€ to the bill. Sorry I cannot recommend a company but I could advise you on a company to avoid.

Thank you all,
The information and more importantly the warnings!
I will contact, Rob at Don Aluminio Builders and take from there. The non slip titles is also an option.
