### A Custom Surface Without a Full Tear-Out

 StoneCoat is a decorative concrete overlay option for stable existing concrete surfaces. It is applied, shaped, carved, colored, and sealed to create a custom stone-like finish.

- Great for patios, porches, walkways, driveways, and pool decks
- Hand-carved patterns including stone, tile, brick, and custom layouts
- Color and finish options selected around the home and outdoor space
- A strong option when existing concrete is stable but visually outdated

## What Is StoneCoat?

 StoneCoat is a decorative cementitious overlay system installed over properly prepared existing concrete. The surface is built up, hand-shaped, carved into the selected pattern, colored, and sealed for protection and appearance.

### Hand-Carved, Custom Finish

 Unlike a basic coating or paint, a StoneCoat-style overlay is worked by hand to create the shape, texture, grout lines, and final appearance of the surface.

### Designed Around Existing Concrete

 It can be a cost-effective way to transform stable concrete without replacing the entire patio, walkway, driveway, porch, or pool deck.

### Finished and Sealed

 The finished surface is stained or colored and sealed to help protect the decorative finish from normal outdoor exposure.

 StoneCoat is best suited for existing concrete that is stable and structurally sound. Major movement, settlement, drainage problems, or failing concrete may need to be addressed before overlay work begins.

## Where StoneCoat Works Well

 A decorative overlay is often a strong fit when the concrete is functional but the surface no longer matches the outdoor living space you want.

□

### Patios & Porches

Refresh outdoor concrete surfaces with a custom stone or tile look.

≈

### Pool Decks

↔

### Walkways

▤

### Driveways

When conditions are right, decorative overlay systems can be used for vehicular areas.

## Our StoneCoat Installation Process

 Surface preparation is critical. We focus on cleaning, bonding, overlay application, carving, color, and sealing so the finished surface looks intentional and performs as designed.

1

### Evaluate Existing Concrete

We review the concrete condition, cracks, drainage, movement, surface profile, and overall suitability for an overlay.

2

### Prepare the Surface

The surface is cleaned and prepared so bonding materials can properly adhere to the existing concrete.

3

### Apply Bonding/Prep Materials

A prep coat or bonding primer is used as part of the overlay system before the decorative material is installed.

4

### Install and Carve the Overlay

The overlay is installed at the appropriate thickness, then hand-carved into the selected stone, tile, brick, or custom pattern.

5

### Color, Detail, and Seal

The surface is colored or stained, detailed, and sealed to complete the finished look.

### Pattern Options

Choose a layout that fits the home and outdoor space.

- Large-format stone
- Flagstone-style layouts
- Tile or brick patterns
- Custom borders and accent details

### Color & Finish

Colors can be selected to complement the home, patio cover, outdoor kitchen, pool, or surrounding hardscape.

- Natural stone tones
- Warm earth-tone blends
- Gray and contemporary finishes
- Sealed decorative surface

### Good Candidates

StoneCoat is a great fit when the concrete is stable but the existing surface looks worn, plain, stained, or disconnected from the rest of the backyard design.

- Stable existing concrete
- Patios and porches needing a visual upgrade
- Pool decks with outdated finishes
- Concrete that does not justify full replacement

## Investment Guide

 StoneCoat pricing depends on square footage, surface preparation, pattern complexity, color work, sealing requirements, and site conditions.

### Simple Overlay Refresh

Project-Based

Best for straightforward patios or porches with limited repair and a simple decorative layout.

### Custom Pattern & Color

Varies by Scope

Includes more detailed stone or tile patterns, borders, color blending, or custom design work.

### Larger Outdoor Surfaces

Quoted After Review

Pool decks, driveways, and large patios require a site review to confirm surface condition and prep needs.

## Frequently Asked Questions

 A few common questions homeowners ask when considering a StoneCoat overlay.

### Can StoneCoat be installed over any concrete?

No. The existing concrete needs to be stable and suitable for an overlay. Major movement, settlement, drainage issues, or failing concrete may need to be corrected first.

### Is this the same as painting concrete?

No. A decorative overlay is a cementitious surface applied over existing concrete, then shaped, carved, colored, and sealed. It is more substantial than a coating or paint.

### What patterns can you create?

Common options include stone, tile, brick, flagstone-style layouts, large-format stone, borders, and custom details.

### Can it be used on pool decks?

Yes, when the existing concrete is suitable. Pool decks are one of the common applications for decorative concrete overlays.

### Does it need to be sealed?

Yes. The finished surface is sealed as part of the system to help protect the decorative color and finish from outdoor exposure.

### How do I get started?

The first step is a consultation and surface review. We’ll look at the existing concrete, discuss pattern and color options, and recommend the right approach for the project.
