Concrete Sidewalk Finishes


After we pour concrete, we can work on the concrete finish of your sidewalk. Wet concrete is best for doing all the necessary work. Otherwise, forming shapes and creating designs will be difficult. At Lakeland Concrete Contractors, we offer various concrete walkway finishes. Depending on your preference, you may opt for any of the following choices:


Stamped Concrete Sidewalk

Concrete stamping is replicating more expensive construction materials like natural stone, brick, tile, and wood. It also enables us to add a color, pattern, or texture of your choice. Installing stamped concrete sidewalk is more affordable than using costly construction materials.


Trowel Finish

Using a trowel, we get to achieve a smooth and leveled concrete surface. It's an ideal choice for homeowners who want a classic and simple design for their pathway. Trowel finish would make a great DIY project since it's not complex.


Broom Finish

Broom concrete sidewalk finish is ideal for homeowners with kids who love to play outdoors. It's a type of finish that is slip-resistant. Thus, making it a safe choice for outdoor surfaces. As the name implies, we use a broom and drag it across a smooth concrete slab to achieve a textured finish. We do this approach on a fresh concrete. Otherwise, it would be difficult to produce such a concrete finish.


Exposed Aggregate

Exposed aggregate concrete finish is also very ideal for outdoor surfaces. As the name suggests, it exposes aggregates like sand and gravel to achieve a rough, non-slip finish. Initially, we pour concrete, and using a bull float, we smoothen the surface. We then get rid of excess concrete to expose your preferred aggregate. Exposed aggregate concrete sidewalks are safe to run and walk into, especially during the rainy season.


Concrete Paver

Concrete pavers are another popular material used for sidewalks. These are blocks or tiles made using concrete. Also known as brick paving, it is a popular decorative method used in various spaces. Concrete pavers allow you to achieve a brick-like finish but using concrete. It is an affordable alternative to the latter.


Concrete Sidewalk Installation Process


At Lakeland Concrete Contractors, we can guarantee world-class concrete services. We offer various services, including concrete sidewalks. Our dedicated team of concrete experts comes up with an effective installation process. This process serves as our guide to ensure consistent results in all our concrete walkway projects. For your reference, below is our step-by-step sidewalk installation method:

 

1. Project Site Preparation

Preparation is key to ensure we start and finish the project on time. We ensure all materials are ready and are on site. As part of this step, we make proper measurements. Doing so will save us from major concerns as we go through the installation. We also clean up the area, so we get to start the project on a clean slate.


2. Installation of Form Boards

Once the site is ready, we proceed to the installation of forms. Form boards are essential in keeping the concrete mixture intact once we pour it in. For added strength and durability, we put wire mesh or reinforcing mesh. Sometimes, we use steel bars to support the concrete walkway.


3. Mixing Concrete Mix

Using a concrete mixer or concrete truck, we mix concrete on the site. In most of our projects, we use ready-mix concrete. But there are projects wherein we manually do a concrete mix. Here, you can rely on our experts to calculate ingredients based on proportions.


4. Pouring Concrete Mix

Pouring concrete is the most important part of the entire installation process. At Lakeland Concrete Contractors, we pour concrete with care. We do so to lessen air pockets. As much as possible, we avoid excess concrete. So, as we pour, we spread the concrete on the entire surface to ensure we fill all sides.


5. Leveling Concrete

Using hand tools like bull float or trowel, we level the fresh concrete. Leveling the concrete surface is vital to any concrete sidewalk project. A leveled and smooth finish is essential to ensure safety of the ones walking on the sidewalks.


6. Drying Concrete Walkway

We let the concrete surface dry for at least 24 hours before proceeding to the next step. Of course, we adjust the drying procedure based on weather conditions. If it's too sunny, 24 hours should be enough. Otherwise, we wait for a few more hours. A dry concrete is vital to the success of the next step.


7. Concrete Sealer Application

Many contractors do not use concrete sealers in most of their work. At Lakeland Concrete Contractors, we seal all our concrete projects. It provides a tremendous benefit, especially for outdoor spaces like concrete walkways. A concrete sealer helps prevent water from seeping into the concrete. Thus, making the concrete last longer, especially during winter or the wet season.


8. Curing Concrete

A proper concrete cure is key to a durable and long-lasting concrete sidewalk. Technically, concrete surfaces are ready for foot traffic in 48 hours. But, to enjoy its full performance and for concrete to last long, we recommend waiting for 28 days. After such time, you can start using concrete daily regardless of how high or low foot traffic is.


9. Quality Check

Once your concrete walkway cures, our team comes back to do a quality check. As a premiere concrete company in the area, we want nothing but the best for you. We have a structural engineer visit your place to assess our work, making sure we leave nothing on our checklist. In case of any construction defects, we immediately send a team of experts to do necessary resolution.
