Understanding Exposed Aggregate

Exposed aggregate is a decorative concrete technique that involves revealing the natural beauty of aggregates within the concrete mix. Aggregates are materials such as stones, pebbles, and crushed glass that are mixed into the concrete to provide strength and stability. During the finishing process, the top layer of the concrete is removed to expose these aggregates, resulting in a visually appealing textured surface.

The Benefits of Exposed Aggregate

• Aesthetic Appeal: Exposed aggregate creates a distinctive and visually striking appearance that adds character and charm to any outdoor space. The exposed stones come in various colors, shapes, and sizes, allowing for customization that complements the surrounding environment.
• Slip Resistance: The exposed aggregate surface offers a natural texture that enhances slip resistance, making it an excellent choice for areas prone to moisture, such as pool decks, patios, and walkways.
• Durability: The exposed aggregate surface is highly durable and resistant to heavy foot traffic, making it ideal for high-traffic outdoor areas.
• Low Maintenance: The textured surface of exposed aggregate requires minimal maintenance. Regular cleaning and occasional resealing are usually sufficient to keep the surface looking its best.
