A Full Service Concrete Contractor
Exposed aggregate concrete.
The decorative process of exposed aggregate concrete has been around since the early 1900s. Popular decorative aggregates are richly colored natural stones such as basalts, granite, quartz, or limestone and fall into the general categories of mechanically chipped stone or naturally rounded river stone. But you can also use manufactured materials such as recycled colored glass, seashells and other interesting objects. Global Village Construction has the experience to combine multiple techniques in creative ways to take exposed aggregate concrete to the next level.
Exposed aggregate finishes offer numerous advantages.
- Provides rugged and slip resistant surface.
- Many types and colors of aggregates are available.
- Hides dirt, minor stains and is easy to maintain.
- Looks nice next to plain concrete making it ideal for borders, bands, and accent designs.
- Relatively inexpensive when compared to other decorative methods such as stamping and stenciling..
