Built for Santa Barbara Conditions

Stamping presses texture mats into fresh concrete during the finishing window, usually 2 to 4 hours after placement depending on temperature. We use patterns that mimic stone, slate, brick, or wood, plus running bond, ashlar slate, and Spanish tile layouts common throughout the area.

Sealed with a UV-stable finish suited to coastal sun exposure, stamped surfaces hold their color and texture for years with resealing every 2 to 3 years.
