Serving Southeastern Michigan and the Ann Arbor area
Exposed aggregate concrete is a decorative and rugged surface finish achieved by removing the top layer of cement paste after the concrete is laid, thereby revealing the embedded aggregates—such as pebbles, gravel, natural stones, or even glass and shells. This treatment creates a textured appearance with rich visual depth, as the color, size, and variety of the aggregates contribute significantly to the overall aesthetic.
One of the standout features of this finish is its excellent durability. The embedded aggregates make the surface highly resistant to wear, heavy foot and vehicle traffic, as well as harsh weather conditions, making it well-suited for driveways, patios, sidewalks, pool decks, and commercial walkways. Additionally, the rough, textured surface offers enhanced traction, reducing slip hazards—an advantage particularly appreciated around pool areas or during wet weather.
Aggregate concrete is a smart choice for many projects because it combines strength, durability, and aesthetic appeal in one material. The mix of stone, gravel, or crushed rock with cement creates a highly resilient surface that can handle heavy traffic, weather changes, and long-term wear, making it ideal for driveways, patios, and walkways.
Beyond durability, aggregate concrete offers visual versatility, since the natural textures and colors of the stone can be exposed and finished in different ways to create a unique, attractive look that enhances curb appeal.
It’s also a practical option because it requires less maintenance than other surfaces, staying strong with minimal upkeep while resisting cracks and surface damage.
