Do I have to tear out my old concrete?

We do offer the option to pour over existing concrete. As long as there is the ability to have enough fall away from your home and room at the threshold to get proper thickness.

How safe is decorative concrete?

As with most materials, there is a slip hazard when concrete is wet. Some of the decorative finishes we offer, however, actually improve traction. Prater Concrete uses an acrylic-based, professional-grade sealer with an anti-slip additive. Please take caution when walking on sealed wet concrete.

Is decorative concrete easy to maintain?

Its as simple as washing dishes! With a bit of mild dish soap (blue Dawn Original is the best) soft broom/mop and a hose. Using the soft broom/mop gently scrub the surface and into any grout lines and rise with hose or pressure washer. Using a leaf blower to dry the surface is best to keep any dirt or dust from sticking to the clean surface. We DO NOT recommend resealing your decorative concrete yourself! Please give us a call to get an estimate on resealing.
