Are you aware that concrete comes in a variety of colors other than the traditional matte gray? If not, let us, a concrete company in Topeka, KS introduce you to a wild world of limitless possibilities! Concrete comes in a number of finishes, varying from terra-cotta brown to rich brick-red to a subtle-yet-rustic buff. With an advanced stamping technique, concrete can be made to look like anything from stone pavers to Belgian slate. Stamped concrete is the name for this form of imprinted concrete.

You might be wondering why you should bother personalizing your concrete now that we've opened your eyes to the possibilities of custom concrete. Why not just go for a neutral color scheme?

There are many reasons to personalize your new concrete, whether you want to go totally out of the box or want to add a subtle touch of style. Here are a few examples:

1.      Gray isn't a color that goes with any home's exterior. While essential, solid gray concrete may be a good option for some homes and businesses, it doesn't work for everyone. You can create a pleasing color palette by changing the color of your concrete. We can imprint a molded picture onto the concrete's surface as it dries if you're satisfied with the natural color of the concrete but want to add a "wow" factor. Stamped concrete is one of the most common trends in residential and commercial concrete, and it comes in various types. Stamped concrete may be designed to resemble other materials such as wood or European fan pavers.

2.      Personalized concrete adds a special touch. A plain old conventional concrete driveway or patio will refresh your home or company and raise curb appeal, but personalizing the concrete makes an accurate statement. Personalized concrete, like decorating your house when you first move in, will help make your house feel more like your home.

3.      Unlimited design potential. The versatility of decorative concrete is one of its most appealing features. You can have any pattern, style, or color you like because all we do is custom. Our proprietary products and processes can reproduce any natural stone, tile, brick, or wood plank, from stained concrete to stamped and stenciled designs to individually hand-carved stones. For flagstone, cobblestone, Ashlar slate, Roman Texture Slate, limestone, sandstone, and more, our attention to detail ensures an authentic-looking finish. We can reproduce the look of every fabulous floor you've seen and fallen in love with, such as veined marble from a five-star hotel or the ancient look of terrazzo. We can replicate the look of every fabulous floor you've seen and fallen in love with, such as veined marble in a five-star hotel or ancient stones in a European castle, so you're only limited to locally available materials.

4.      It is both stylish and functional. While solid gray concrete serves its purpose admirably, why not get a little more out of your concrete project? When you choose customized concrete for your home or company, you're investing in both function and design.

5.      Some materials are half the price. Several factors will increase the cost of working with natural stone. One aspect to consider is availability; does the stone you want have to be transported by truck? The price will be influenced by weight and distance. Rare colors are more expensive, and if you're dealing with a vast region, you might not be able to get as much as you need in the color you want. Natural stone can be prohibitively costly in large areas such as pool decks and driveways. Imagine how much this driveway would cost if it were made of natural flagstone and cobblestone! You can appreciate the elegance of natural stone with infinite patterns and designs for a fraction of the cost of natural stone with a decorative concrete overlay.

6.      Installation that is both quicker and safer. A concrete overlay can help repair distressed and damaged concrete slabs, save time, hassle, and money over demolition and replacement, taking up to four weeks. Concrete Craft can revive an old slab and cover-up imperfections with a unique micro-topping concrete overlay, making it look brand new with any custom finish you desire. You won't need to split up and cart away old concrete, nor will you need cement trucks or jackhammers, and you'll appreciate the fact that resurfacing rather than repairing saves you thousands of dollars.
