The Basics of Coloured Concrete and How It’s Done
Coloured concrete offers an aesthetically pleasing way to elevate the look of driveways, paths, patios, and commercial spaces. But did you know there are two main ways to achieve those bold or earthy tones?
✔️ Integral Colour – The pigment is mixed directly into the concrete before it’s poured. This ensures the colour runs through the entire mix. It’s durable, consistent, and ideal for applications that may chip or wear over time.
✔️ Surface Colour – This method involves applying pigment to the top layer of fresh concrete. These colours often contain hardeners that improve surface strength.
Whether you’re after deep reds, earthy browns, or sleek charcoal finishes, coloured concrete gives you the creative freedom to design your surface your way. 🌈👷♂️
