"I shopped numerous contractors for an estimate, not only for price but references, I physically looked at projects completed by SMRT that were simular to my project and found SMRT Construction most reasonably priced, and the quality of workmanship was what I was looking for. I received an estimate with a complete itemized break down of work to be completed on the project, (it was very detailed). Upon agreeing on price and terms of contract, it was explained that the roofing materials had to be ordered and would take about 4 weeks to be delivered, and work could not start untill materials were on site. Once materials were on site, work begain that following Monday as promised, and the entire project was completed before scheduled finish date. The project went very smooth, He makes everything look so easy, this was a very difficult job, based on height and how steep the pitch of roof, Michael made sure safety measures were always taken into consideration at all times. "Kudos" Great job. See attached before and after pictures. "

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.
When you don’t seal concrete, the colors and designs fade, water marks appear, and stains penetrate from the top layer to the lower layers, making them difficult to remove. Applying a sealant is strongly recommended for not only stamped concrete but any poured concrete. Speak with your concrete contractor about sealant options depending on the slab's intended use.
Yes, concrete changes color while curing, moving from a dark shade when wet to a lighter shade once dry and fully cured. Wait at least 10 days after pouring the concrete to gauge the color of the final concrete. If the concrete remains dark or discolored after that period, reach out to your concrete contractor with questions.
Sealing resurfaced concrete is not an absolute necessity. However, it is recommended, and in most cases, a high-quality concrete sealer can protect the surface from stains as well as water penetration, extending the life of the resurfacing material. Some sealers are formulated to protect pigments from fading due to UV exposure. Sealer tends to enhance the colors in decorative resurfacing applications, making them more vibrant and richer compared to the duller, more faded appearance of concrete colors without sealer.
Options include stamped, stained, polished, and textured finishes. Choose based on aesthetic preference and functionality.
