Can you paint concrete with a roller?

• <div><p>You can paint concrete with paint rollers. In fact, using paint rollers is considered one of the easiest ways to evenly apply paint on concrete. A paint roller with a 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick nap—which is basically a fabric paint roller cover—is best for painting concrete. The thicker the nap, the more paint it can hold to fill those pesky concrete cracks and crevices.</p></div>

Q: What does it cost to stain a concrete patio?

• <div><p>It costs between <b>$600 and $8,400</b> to stain an average-size concrete patio of around 300 square feet. The wide price range accounts for intricate stains that incorporate multiple colors and stenciling, high-end sealers, and special touches, such as stamping or concrete polishing. Prices can also vary if you need to make multiple repairs to your patio before adding the stain and seal.</p></div>

Q: Can you pour concrete over old concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, you can pour new concrete over old concrete, but you need to apply a concrete bonding agent to the existing concrete to ensure the new concrete sticks. Keep in mind that even with a bonding agent, large cracks and other flaws will still come through. If the concrete has heaved, settled, or cracked, pouring new concrete on top won&rsquo;t address any root structural problems. Removing the existing concrete and rebuilding will be your best solution in that case.</p></div>

Q: Does concrete stain need to be sealed?

• <div><p>Always seal concrete stain to protect against wear and preserve the color. This applies to acid- and water-based stains but not always to concrete paint. Many paints designed for outdoor use contain ingredients designed to protect and waterproof without the need for additional sealant. Fortunately, learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-seal-concrete.htm">how to seal concrete</a> is something most DIY-savvy homeowners can tackle.</p></div>

Q: Do services include decorative finishes?

• <div><p>Yes, professionals offer stamped, stained, or polished concrete for enhanced aesthetics.</p></div>

Justin was great. He arrived on time and was respectful of my home. He explained the work he would perform and completed the repair within a reasonable time. I will definitely use Best Finish Services for any other electrical repair needs I may have in the future.

My concrete is now peeling up all over and it is absolutely horrible. They had a reasonable price and seemed to work very hard but this work just wasn’t worth the money. It also isn’t flat so water pools in it. I saw that it wasn’t very good right at the beginning and told them not to...
