Service FAQs

Is resin-bound a paint or coating?

No. It is a bound natural-stone aggregate system, not a thin paint-like coating or decorative flake broadcast.

Can you resurface around steps and doors?

Often, but thresholds, door clearances, and steps need site review before a final proposal.

What surfaces can be resurfaced as a patio?

Stable concrete patios are the most common base. Condition, slope, drainage, and edge details are reviewed before install.
