Carports and driveways
Outdoor concrete takes sun, salt and tyre heat. Flake gives it grip when it is wet and the topcoat keeps it from chalking.

What we coat
The porch that came in spalled and cracked.
A front porch is the first thing anyone sees of the house and it is usually the most tired concrete on the property. The one in the gallery came in stained, spalled and cracked, and left a day later in a pumice flake.

Estimates are free, and done in person on your slab.
The job behind the photograph.
Porches and patios are old concrete, most of the time, and they show it: a long crack, years of staining, the surface spalling where water got in and froze. That is not the end of the slab. Grinding takes the weak, weathered top layer off and opens sound concrete underneath, and the cracks and pits are filled on the same pass so the coating goes onto a flat, solid surface.
The porch in the gallery is exactly that job. The before photograph shows the crack and the staining; the after is a light pumice flake blend under a polyaspartic topcoat, one day later. The step edge is wrapped so there is no bare lip for water to get behind, and the finish runs clean up to the brickwork and the lawn edge.
Being outside, it gets the same topcoat as the carports: UV stable so the colour holds, sealed so the slab stops soaking up water, textured so it is not slick when it rains. A patio round the back is the same work with more square footage, and both are floors that sweep and hose clean rather than needing to be scrubbed.
Old concrete
Usually saveable
The weathered top layer comes off in the grind. Structural damage gets flagged at the estimate, not after.
Edges
Steps wrapped
No bare lip on the step for water to get behind and lift the coating.
Finish
Flake, for grip and for looks
The porch in the gallery is a light pumice blend. Bring a look you like.
Care
Sweep and hose
A sealed floor does not hold dirt or take a stain the way bare concrete does.

The space, roughly how big it is and what the concrete is doing now is enough to start with. Someone comes out, stands on the slab and gives you a number.
