Architectural
concrete is concrete that is patterned to resemble brick,
slate, flagstone,
stone, tile - even wood. Architectural concrete also includes
other decorative concrete elements such as exposed aggregate
finishes and acid-etch staining. This type of work requires
highly skilled finishers -- our top-notch crew at M&M
Contracting Inc. includes architectural concrete
specialists. |

Due to the flexible array of patterns
and colors available, and the cost of architectural
concrete in relation to the materials it is a substitute
for, the choice of architectural concrete is becoming
more popular and cost-effective.

Colors |
|
Colors
and patterns for architectural concrete are often
chosen
to blend with other stone or tile elements at the location.
Complex designs incorporating steps, courtyards,
and
fountains with color schemes matching architectural
details can be achieved by the M&M
Team. |

Cleaning |
Cleaning and
sealing architectural and colored concrete should be done
on a regular basis just like any other home maintenance.
The frequency will depend on how high a traffic area to
cars, foot traffic, water, and any chemicals the concrete
is exposed to. |
Maintenance |
M&M
Contracting recommends resealing every
2 or 3 years. If you wait longer, you may notice
the color fade
slightly. But just like waxing a car, reseal your architectural
concrete and the color can be as vibrant as the
day it
was installed. |
