The chic simplicity of concrete appeals to minimalists and practical homeowners alike. With plenty of ways to customize it, your house can only benefit from the addition of decorative concrete. Here are a few reasons why this trendy material is becoming increasingly popular in the home design world.

Why You Should Add Decorative Concrete to Your House

1. Flexible

This type of concrete can be applied in- or outdoors, as well as onto new or existing surfaces. Your contractor can apply concrete coatings through splatter texture, acid staining, stamp overlays, or slate trowel down finishes, allowing you to combine textured patterns and custom design work.

2. Easy to Maintain

Aside from a sealant application every four years, decorative concrete doesn’t require regular polishing or coating. Dust can be easily swept up, and any spills can be remedied with soap and water. This convenience will save you time and money on maintenance and repairs.

3. Durable

Adding a decorative concrete coating to a surface will add to its longevity. Since concrete is stronger than comparable materials, like cement, it won’t deteriorate as quickly and can withstand heavy loads and inclement weather.

4. Customizable

Since it’s poured and designed on-site, decorative concrete can be tailored to your exact specifications. The color can be adjusted to match the home’s interior or exterior, slabs can be laid in a specified pattern, and the surface can be stamped with any design you desire.
