"The project was the removal of a 18 year old 1,900 square foot asphalt residential drive way, and replacement with concrete. I entertained 10+ bids from the Lake county area and over the border south eastern Wisconsin. R.S. Martinez was chosen based on experience, quality, integrity and proferesionalism. Rene and his crew were courteous, respectful and take pride in their craft. I will enthusiastically recommend them to family, friends and anyone who just drives by. Prompt communication from beginning to end was also impressive, especially during this peak season period. Supporting local is also a plus for me. Thanks again Rene!"

When properly maintained, stained concrete floors can last 20 years or more. For optimal protection, they require sealing every two to four years. Regular sealing helps reinforce the surface against moisture, scratches, and wear. Maintaining a consistent schedule preserves the floor’s appearance and structural integrity, ensuring lasting performance and adding value to your home.
While durable, stained concrete floors can crack under intense humidity or stress, which can affect their uniform appearance. If cracks occur, repairs might not blend perfectly with the original finish. Regular inspections and timely professional repairs can prevent these issues. Consistent maintenance protects the surface, maintains its aesthetic appeal, and upholds the floor’s overall durability.
The permanence of a concrete stain depends on the type of stain used. Water-based stains provide a semi-permanent appearance that allows for future modifications. In contrast, acid-based stains create an irreversible change through a chemical reaction. Your choice should reflect whether you prefer a finish that can be changed later or a consistent, long-lasting look.
Yes, changing the color of a concrete floor is best achieved by staining rather than painting. Staining establishes a strong, durable bond with the surface and resists chipping and fading. Paint doesn't adhere as firmly and deteriorates under regular use. Choosing a stain ensures a vibrant, resilient finish that maintains its appeal and protects the concrete over time.
Stained concrete floors offer exceptional aesthetic and functional benefits. They create a chic, modern look that enhances any interior and can increase your home's value. The durable finish withstands heavy traffic and requires minimal maintenance, making it a practical choice for busy households. This investment in quality flooring also boosts resale appeal and adds significant long-term value to your property.
