What Is?
Concrete
A heavy, rough building material made from a mixture of broken stone or gravel, sand, cement, and water, that can be spread or poured into molds and that forms a stone-like mass on hardening.
Plain Concrete
The plain concrete will have no reinforcement in it. The main constituents are the cement, aggregates, and water. Most commonly used mix design is 1:2:4 which is the normal mix design.
Reinforced Concrete
Concrete in which wire mesh or steel bars are embedded to increase its tensile strength. The reinforced cement concrete is defined as the concrete to which reinforcement is introduced to bear the tensile strength.
Ready Mix Concrete
Ready mixed refers to concrete that is batched for delivery from a central plant instead of being mixed on the job site. Each batch of ready-mixed concrete is tailor-made according to the specifics of the contractor and is delivered to the contractor in a plastic condition
Pumped concrete
Pumped concrete is the concrete which is transported to heights by means of pumping using concrete pumps. This method is used where large quantity of concrete work is involved at greater height, where other means of transporting is not easy to do.
Concrete Curing
The process of maintaining hydration (water) in concrete until it has reached maximum compressive strength.
What is?
Stamped Concrete
Stamped concrete is an architectural concrete where realistic patterns similar to natural stones, granites, and tiles can be obtained by placing impression of professional stamping pads. These stamping is carried out on the concrete when it is in its plastic condition.
Pool Deck
Pool deck is the area immediately surrounding a public or residential swimming pool .
Spray Deck
It is low maintenance, and resistant to staining and mildew. Spray-Deck textured surfaces, while beautiful, create a safety first non-skid surface ideal for pool decks, patios, and walkways or wherever a non-skid surface is desired. Spray-Deck is Ideal for Residential and Commercial Use
Concrete Polishing
Polished concrete is concrete that has been processed through a series of mechanically ground "polishing/grinding" steps utilizing professional equipment designed for concrete polishing
Concrete Sealer
A concrete sealer is essential for protecting surfaces from water damage caused by freeze/thaw cycles, stains from dirt, oil and other contaminants, and much more. So, if you’ve just installed the decorative concrete masterpiece of your dreams, make sure it gets sealed
Sealers for Stamped Concrete
Sealers provide several important benefits:
- They block the penetration of stains, oil, deicing chemicals and other contaminants.
- They protect stamped concrete surfaces from abrasion and wear.
- The make stamped concrete easier to clean and maintain.
- They enrich the color intensity of stamped concrete, whether the color is integral or provided by a dry-shake hardener and antiquing release.
- They add sheen to the surface, ranging from satin to high gloss
