"We added a 30’x50’ concrete pad/driveway to our backyard, and a 1’x50’ section with fence posts to keep the dogs from digging under the fence. Ernesto went above and beyond. We had 3 other quotes and these guys blew them away and the work was top notch. He was recommended to us by a friend and my neighbor used him after us. We’ll definitely be using him again on an upcoming new build as well."

"Overall the job took the better part of a week and from our perspective was a success.  Ryan worked with us in selecting
the right color for the stain.  He carefully removed and replaced the numerous potted plants we had on the deck and left
the work area in a clean condition.  The patio and balcony look great and our only regret is that we didn't do it earlier."

"They quoted me a reasonable price and gave me references with pictures to check out. They were always early, both for the estimate appointment and for scheduleld work days. The driveway is beautiful and the color (San Diego Buff) is a nice accent to the house. Done in two working days and they cleaned up after themselves like they'd never been here. I would use them for any concrete work and I would recommend them to friends and family."

"Noah and his crew worked hard and fast to get our projects done. We were initially only doing our front yard but ended up asking him to do our back yard before he was even finished with the 1st project. Would highly recommend to everyone!"

"Albert is the best contractor we ever worked with. He is polite, honest, knowledgeable and is best at what he is doing. We had no idea what to do with the project and he guided us through the entire project, which turned out to be very good. He always went out of his way to help us in every step of the project
He got an excellent team of people who works for him. 
He and his crew always showed up in time and finished the job within timeline.
I highly recommend him.

"I signed up for Clean Krete's AL special-- $99 for $300 worth of work and then contacted Clean Krete.  I spoke with Brandy-- she was charming-- and arranged for a visit and estimate.  I specifically asked for two estimates-- one just to repair concrete cracks and the other to repair the cracks and stain the concrete.  They arrived on the day they were suppose to and later that week provided an estimate of $3100 for repair and staining.  I then sent them two emails and left two phone messages over the next week specifically asking for the repair estimate only.  I never received a response and it has been several weeks.  Meanwhile, the $3100 charge is way above other estimates I have obtained.  Since the provider is non responsive and other reviews tell a similar story, I would like a refund on my $99.

FAQs for concrete finishing, overlays & coloring application projects in Valley Center, CA

With proper care, a stained concrete floor easily lasts 20 years or more. Reapply sealer every two to four years to protect against moisture, scratches, and daily wear. Routine sweeping, occasional damp mopping, and prompt repairs keep the surface looking sharp and protect the slab underneath, preserving both function and resale value.

Stained concrete can crack if the slab is exposed to extreme moisture changes, heavy impacts, or settling. Small hairline cracks are mainly cosmetic, but deeper fractures can affect the finish. Inspect the floor regularly, address moisture issues quickly, and hire a pro for timely repairs. Staying on top of maintenance prevents minor flaws from developing into larger, more costly problems.

The longevity of a concrete stain depends on the product you choose. Acid-based options chemically bond with the slab and are essentially permanent. Water-based stains sit on the surface and can be lightened, darkened, or covered with a new color at a later time. Select the stain type that aligns with your long-term design plans and your willingness to reapply the stain in the future.

You can update the color by cleaning the slab, lightly etching it, and applying a new layer of stain. Re-staining bonds to the concrete and resists peeling far better than paint. For a dramatic shift—such as moving from a dark acid stain to a lighter tone—you may need to grind the surface first. A flooring pro can advise on the best approach for your specific floor.

Stained concrete combines longevity with a modern, custom look. The finish resists heavy foot traffic, moisture, and everyday wear, so upkeep is minimal—routine sweeping and an occasional damp mop are usually enough. Because the color is inside the concrete, it won’t peel or flake like paint. Homebuyers also appreciate its sleek aesthetic and low maintenance, which can add a slight boost to your property's resale value.
