Types of Overlays

Grout-less overlay
These decorative overlays are applied by a trowel or squeegee in
very thin layers. They can go on silky smooth and taken down to
a feather edge. Or you can apply several coats to create a textured
broomed or troweled finish.

 

Masked overlays

Although stamps or stencils are available for standard patterns, another way of creating a pattern is
with nylon fiber tape. Stamps and stencils use a set pattern that is repeated over and over. Using
Nylon fiber tape to hand mask off the pattern assures that every shape and each design is unique and
custom. Any pattern or design such as natural stone, brick, slate, flagstone or wood planking is
possible. Once the pattern has been laid out, a concrete overlay is applied and left to dry. Once the
overlay has dried, the tape is then pulled off of the surface revealing the grout pattern.


Lace

The base coat is smooth, but the topcoat of the lace pattern is a textured surface, which is initially
sprayed on from a hand-held hopper. But, they can also be applied as a splatter coat to create a
textured, slip-resistant surface or "knocked down" with a trowel to create a smoother finish. These
overlays are usually used for resurfacing swimming pool decking. It is cooler than most natural
surfaces and also offers the added bonus of providing safe skid resistance.

 

Epoxy

Epoxy floor coatings can be used for
the garage, showroom, office, hangar,
laundry room, basement, shop, and kennel

 

Concrete Resurfacing and Decorative Concrete Overlays
 

Why Use Concrete Resurfacing?
If your existing concrete is worn and aged, it can be
resurfaced with a concrete overlay or coating. Concrete
overlays have improved strength, adhesion and flexibility
over conventional concrete. Decorative concrete can be
used both indoors and outdoors and is ideal for
commercial and residential applications.

Decorative Concrete Overlay is . . .

Stronger than regular concrete

Cooler than normal pool decking

Stain resistant

UV fade resistant
