  • How much experience do you have with concrete stenciling?
  • Do you have photos of your previous work?
  • Do you have customer testimonials?

 

How to Find a Concrete Contractor

Finding and hiring the right contractor is a key part of a successful concrete project. You want a professional who is dependable, honest and, most of all, competent. Unfortunately, finding a contractor who meets those qualifications is not as easy as opening the phone book or performing a quick Internet search. It is easy for anyone to place an ad and call himself a contractor. And even among licensed contractors, con men and incompetents abound. By performing some legwork before you start looking for a contractor, you greatly increase your chances of success.

  • Calculate the amount and type of concrete needed to complete the job by contacting a concrete company and telling them the dimensions of the site to be poured and the end use of the concrete. Different uses require different concrete densities. For example, the concrete used in the piers of a large building is denser than the concrete used to pour a residential driveway.
  • Contact your municipal building department and ask a construction inspector for a list of concrete contractors. Construction inspectors inspect the concrete forms and site before any concrete is poured. They know the good and bad contractors and have no problem telling you who the goods ones are and the ones to avoid.
  • Visit construction sites in your area and ask other contractors for referrals. Ask friends and family members who have recently had concrete work done for referrals as well.
  • Call contractors from your list and meet with them to discuss your job. Ask for references and copies of licenses and insurance. Choose the contractor with whom you are most comfortable.

Which Is Better: SuccessCrete Stamped or Stenciled Concrete?

Decorative concrete gives your driveway, walkway, and patio the look of real stones, pavers, tiles, or bricks without the expense and labor of laying these elements by hand. A timeless look, SuccessCrete stamped or stenciled concrete, comes at a substantially lower cost when compared with genuine bricks, stones, or pavers. But deciding which option is best for you depends on the overall look and feel you want to create. For homeowners with finished concrete, SuccessCrete stenciling offers a do-it-yourself way to dress up concrete floors and patios.

 

The SuccessCrete Stamped Effect

SuccessCrete Concrete stamping, with a dye added to the concrete, recreates the look of an individually paved, brick or stone driveway. SuccessCrete Concrete stamping must be completed before the fresh concrete sets. Color hardeners and release agents go onto the concrete before the stamping begins. Laborers must be experienced in this kind of work and work quickly to complete the stamping with large polyurethane forms before the concrete hardens. After stamping, laborers complete any detail work, remove residual release agents, add a curing compound, install joints and, finally, seal the concrete.

 

SuccessCrete Concrete Stenciling

Like SuccessCrete concrete stamping, contractor stenciling is completed after the concrete is poured, screed, floated, and edged. Stencils are easier for workers to apply than stamping because stencils are made from disposable paper. The stencils create the concrete’s mortar joints, depending upon the look you choose, bricks, tiles, or pavers. Because workers don’t need to be on the slab while creating stencils, larger areas can be completed at one time when compared with SuccessCrete stamping concrete. SuccessCrete Stenciled concrete works best when looking for more stable surfaces on patios to support furniture.

 

Basic Differences

SuccessCrete Stamped concrete requires the use of large polyurethane forms that stamp the image into the concrete, while contractor stenciling involves adding paper to the concrete that follows the mortar joints of the chosen pattern. The Indiana Decorate Concrete Network, a state alliance of decorative concrete companies, claims that stenciling is an easier process when compared with stamping because it can be applied by workers without a lot of experience, working from outside the concrete forms. SuccessCrete Stamped concrete is best for outdoor surfaces, while SuccessCrete stenciled concrete can be used indoors and out.

 

Comparative Costs

The Concrete Network, a national consortium of concrete contractors and suppliers, lists the costs per square foot of various concrete applications at the time of publication. SuccessCrete Stamping concrete averages national installed prices of stamped concrete from $7 to $15 per square foot. SuccessCrete Stenciled concrete ranges from $6 to $15 per square foot, depending on the dyes, stencils, and densifiers used—primary SuccessCrete stained concrete ranges from $3 to $6 a square foot at the time of publication.
