We prep every surface properly, cleaning and repairing before we seal, so the sealer bonds evenly and looks consistent.
We choose penetrating or film forming sealers based on your surface and use, with products made for freeze thaw and UV exposure.
Most sealing and staining jobs are done in a day or two, with minimal downtime for your driveway, patio, or walkway.
Longer winters and heavy de-icer use make sealing more important here than in many other places. Sealed concrete absorbs less water, which means less damage from freezing and fewer problems with scaling.
Penetrating sealers soak into the concrete and protect from within without changing the look much. Film forming sealers sit on top and add a subtle sheen that enhances color, which is especially nice on stamped and decorative concrete.
If your concrete is already badly scaled or pitted, sealing alone won’t hide the damage. Concrete overlays and resurfacing can restore the surface first, then sealing protects it going forward.
Most exterior concrete in Monument does best with a fresh coat of sealer every two to three years. Driveways that see a lot of plowing and ice melt may need it a little sooner. A simple water test tells you when it’s time: if water soaks in instead of beading up, your sealer is wearing thin.

We inspect your concrete, discuss your goals, and recommend the right sealer, stain, or refinishing approach.
Our crew cleans the surface, repairs small defects, applies stain if desired, and seals everything with even coverage.
We let the sealer cure and give you care tips and a recommended schedule for resealing.
