What Is Imprinted Concrete?
Imprinted concrete — also known as pattern imprinted concrete or stamped concrete — is a decorative finish where pattern stamps are pressed into freshly poured concrete before it sets. Colour hardener is applied to the surface, and a release agent creates depth and contrast, before the whole surface is sealed.
The result is a seamless, bespoke driveway with the look of natural stone, brick, cobble, or slate — at a fraction of the cost — and none of the maintenance headaches of block paving.
