Add Curb Appeal With Concrete Resurfacing

henry gerstel • September 29, 2023

We are drawn to aesthetically beautiful surfaces and repelled by dirty, worn-out, and damaged surfaces as humans. As a homeowner, you understand the value of curb appeal, not just in terms of real estate, but also in terms of maintaining the home’s condition. Repairing cracked concrete can be expensive and time-consuming. You don’t have to break up the old concrete and have it re-poured if you have a little damaged or worn-out driveway, patio, or sidewalk. This is where concrete resurfacing can help you out.

What Is Concrete Resurfacing?

Concrete resurfacing is the application of a thin cement-based veneer with particular bonding agents. It’s poured over old concrete and adheres to form a lovely, smooth new surface. Your new surface will become stronger and more durable as it dries. Concrete resurfacing also comes in a variety of ornamental finishes, allowing you to personalize the appearance of your floors and concrete surfaces.

Concrete Resurfacing Options

To improve the appearance, accepted thinking maintains that old concrete must be ripped out and replaced. However, there are a variety of repair options that will save you money, resources, and eliminate disposal issues.  If your concrete is in decent shape but needs a makeover, you can dye, stencil, or engrave it to give it a new look.

Glitter Epoxy

Stunning spectacular effects can be achieved with an exotic variety of glitter particles to captivate your guests and clients. An industrial-grade polyester glitter enhances any 3D flooring design and provides a stunning sparkle to epoxy coating treatments. This glitter is impervious to the majority of commercial solvents and may be used with virtually any resin, acrylic, vinyl, solvent, or gel system. Metallic, holographic, and iridescent color bits of glitter are available.

Metallic Epoxy

Metallic epoxy is a type of solid epoxy that contains metallic, glittery particles. When properly blended and placed, the appearance is incredibly unusual and eye-catching, with three-dimensional scintillating swirls appearing throughout the flooring. Whereas the benefits of metallic epoxy flooring greatly exceed the drawbacks, it’s crucial to examine the pros and cons while making a decision.

Polyaspartic Quartz Flake Floors

Bayer Material Science, one of the world’s major chemical corporations, first introduced polyaspartic coatings in the early 1990s. This novel technology was initially used as a corrosion-resistant steel coating for bridges and other harsh-environment applications. The term “polyaspartic” refers to an “aliphatic polyurea” from a technical standpoint. The final conclusion is that polyaspartic floor coatings are extremely durable due to their chemistry. They have a high elasticity combined with a high surface hardness, giving them excellent abrasion resistance.

Concrete Resurfacing Costs

Concrete resurfacing costs typically range from $3 per square foot to $25 per square foot. The cost of your project, however, will be determined by a number of factors. How much does it cost to resurface concrete? The average cost of a finished job depends on a range of elements, not simply the concrete overlay cost, therefore the answer to that question isn’t the same for every client. Here are some of the factors that will influence the cost of your project:

  • The size of your current surface.
  • Design features that are desired.
  • The state of your current concrete.
