Gone are the days when garages
are plain and dreary, once concrete is placed on your carport, you can add
colours and patterns which can be stamped on it. As a result, it creates a
wonderful pattern that imitates blocks, stone, pavers, or whatever you desire.
Stamped concrete is a technique
that incorporates a pattern and texture onto the concrete after it has been
poured. Stamping and colouring can also be done which is a more complex
procedure.
In this process, a design is
stamped into a coloured concrete. Through colouring, natural stones can be
imitated unnoticeably and made to appear like expensive stones without being
costly. Stamped concrete driveways are known for their depth, uniqueness, and art.
It is pattern stamping that
allows any concreter to deliver countless beautiful designs in concrete. Bricks,
clay tiles and natural stone designs are some of the widely used patterns.
Stamping can be combined with
stencilling for a more special effect. The difference between them is that
stamping adds depth and texture.
Looking from afar, you would
actually think that it is made from real natural stone pavers until you look at
it closely. Although you will be awed on how it was beautifully and intricately
made.
Having a stamped concrete
driveway is less expensive compared to natural stones and less demanding as
well to maintain.
Stamping's rate may begin from
$50 per square metre using a single colour while stencilling that incorporates
a few colours may run from $85 per square metre and up. The prices depend on
how complex the design will be.
Through this technique, the look
of marble, stone and other luxury materials can be acquired for your driveway
without even breaking a bank.
