Service FAQs

Can resin-bound stone go over existing concrete?

Yes, when the concrete is stable and properly prepared. Active movement, heaving, or unresolved drainage may require repairs or make the surface unsuitable.

Is resin-bound better than epoxy flake for concrete resurfacing?

They serve different goals. Epoxy flake is a coating. Resin-bound stone is a bound aggregate system with real stone texture and a more architectural finish.

What surfaces can be resurfaced?

Driveways, porches, patios, pool decks, walkways, and steps are common candidates when the base is sound enough for review.

How much does concrete resurfacing cost in Cincinnati?

Cost depends on surface size, prep, drainage, edges, and stone blend. Use the fast price range estimator for planning numbers, then confirm onsite.
