Asphalt does not allow for customization like concrete. It is not as strong as concrete, but it is easier to maintain. The price of asphalt materials has risen over the years and installation costs have almost remained the same. If stamped concrete is properly installed, sealed, and maintained it can give driveways a longer-lasting, more attractive appearance.
Step 4 The professional installer places the stamp over the overlay, until it imprints the pattern. This is difficult as the overlay must be in a good condition to allow for and sustain an imprint. The overlay is then allowed to dry over night.
Step 1: First, professionals concrete contractors evaluate the area for resurfacing. To be eligible to apply an overlay, the slab should be in good enough condition. Although minor damage to the slab can be repaired with an overlay, deeper cracks and holes that indicate a greater problem should be addressed before the overlay is applied.
Concrete pavers can be arranged in many different patterns. Concrete pavers, which are individual pieces, require more work than stamped concrete. They can also be susceptible to shifting and allow for weed growth through the joints. Stamped concrete may give you the same look but without the problems.
