Info
Exposed aggregate concrete can almost be compared to a piece of granite for its strength and durability. Exposed aggregate has been around since the 1900s and continues to appear in designs because of its versatility. A surface is stripped away to reveal the beautiful variety and colours of the aggregates. Many architects, designers and contractors are finding creative ways to incorporate exposed aggregate in their designs. Because of its durability and skid resistance, it is a favourite in high traffic areas. An exposed aggregate finish is ideal for sidewalks, driveways, patios, pool deck and plazas. It can also be used as cladding on walls. The extensive variety in colour and size of aggregates adds to its versatility in pattern and design.
