The Elegance of Exposed Aggregate
Exposed aggregate is one of the more innovative ways to use concrete to produce an aesthetically pleasing finish. Natural stones from different sources together with bits of tile, slate and even sometimes seashell, are added to the concrete mix to produce a decorative look. Many homeowners in Invermay Park, Buninyong, Mount Helen and other parts of Ballarat prefer an exposed aggregate finish because it’s pleasing to the eye and easy to maintain. The exposed aggregate Ballarat residents mainly prefer is one which blends in seamlessly with their landscaping. As with other kinds of concrete works, you can expect an exposed aggregate surface to last for many years without need for repairs.
Why Exposed Aggregate?
- Durability: When it comes to looks, you could argue that timber, tiles or pavers can give you equally good aesthetics. However, these materials have been observed to wear out, crack and suffer discolouration over time. With exposed aggregate, you won’t need to worry about this.
- Variety: With exposed aggregate concrete, you open yourself to a world of stylistic possibilities. You can have a textured aggregate or a fine finish and you can have your exposed aggregate finish in a variety of colours. Regardless of the theme of your house, you are sure to find a hue of exposed aggregate that compliments it.
- Price: Options like pavers and brick undoubtedly look good but they can be quite costly. We are the exposed aggregate concreter Ballarat residents can turn to for stunning aesthetics at a great price point.
- Maintenance: To keep your exposed aggregate surfaces clean, all you need is to use a garden hose to blast them with water from time to time. Surfaces covered in gravel or timber may present more of a challenge to clean. For some you may have to spend money to apply a fresh stain or coat of paint.
Exposed Aggregate Applications
There are many areas in both residential and commercial projects where exposed aggregate concrete can be used to provide that combination of style and functionality.
