What is Exposed Aggregate Concrete?

Exposed aggregate is a type of decorative concrete that exposes the aggregates used in cement. The exposed aggregate finish is created by removing the surface fines from the concrete resulting in the internal aggregates being exposed highlighting the natural elements in the stone.

The most common decorative aggregates are richly coloured natural stones such as basalts, granite, quartz, or limestone. The colour palette of an exposed aggregate surface is largely dependent on the sort of decorative stone that is used.

Exposed aggregate is ideal for Perth’s outdoor living areas as it is perfectly suited for Perth’s concrete driveways, pathways, footpaths, alfresco, patios and courtyards, swimming pool areas and surrounds.

What Is Polished Concrete?

Polished exposed concrete has become an increasingly popular choice in Perth homes. Polished concrete is concrete that has been polished to attain a glossy finish. To achieve this high-gloss look, the concrete is treated with a chemical densifier to fill any pores and blemishes, as well as remove stains, achieve a better shine and prepare a solid foundation for smoothing.
