Every project is one of a kind
From a simple broom finish to a fully stamped and colored driveway, the options are wider than most homeowners realize. Browse the finish types and color palette below, then request an estimate — our team will walk you through exactly what works best for your project, neighborhood, and budget.
Davis Colors palette
We use Davis Colors for all integral color work — the industry standard for concrete pigments. Color runs all the way through the slab, so it lasts as long as the concrete itself.
Colors shown are representative — screen and print settings vary. We recommend ordering a physical sample chip from Davis Colors before finalizing your selection. Order samples from Davis Colors
Standard Finishes
Most popular
Broom Finish
A stiff broom is dragged across the wet surface leaving fine parallel lines for excellent traction. The standard for driveways and walkways — durable, low-maintenance, and timeless.
Standard
Salt Finish
Rock salt is pressed into the wet surface then washed out, leaving a subtle pitted texture. A cost-effective decorative option for patios and pool surrounds.
Standard
Hard Trowel Finish
Machine- or hand-troweled to a smooth, dense surface. Standard for garage floors, interior slabs, and commercial applications.
Standard
Top Cast Finish
A fine sand-textured surface produced by broadcasting aggregate onto the wet slab. Clean, slip-resistant, and consistent.
Standard
Acid Etch Finish
A light acid wash opens the surface pores, producing a fine even texture with subtle visual depth. Often used as a prep for staining or sealing.
Decorative Finishes
