FAQ
How much does it cost?
The price depends on a number of things. We would have to see your concrete and talk to you about the look you want before we can determine an actual price. With that said the average range is $3.00 to $8.00 a square foot.

Do you offer any discounts?
Yes! We offer quantity, home advertising, and charitable discounts.

How thick is the coating?
Unlike other alternatives, there is no additional thickness. The pattern is engraved into the existing surface and the stain soaks into the concrete. You won't have to worry about doors rubbing, landings not meeting, or new drainage problems (common around garage doors). There is no coating to flake up or peel around the edges.

Should I tear out and replace my concrete if it is cracked?
No. We can address and disguise existing cracks. Replacing concrete is very expensive and more invasive for the home owner.

What if I don't have any existing concrete?
We only pour up to 500 square feet. If you need more concrete poured then that, then you must hire out another company to pour your new concrete slab. Once it has cured for four weeks, we can begin our decorative work.

Do you remove coatings?
No. We only remove paints, sealers, and color release powder left from stamps.

Can you restore the color of stamped concrete?
Yes, as long as it is not a coating.

Do you do interior floors?
No. We specialize in exterior concrete surfaces i.e. walkways, patios, pool decks, driveways, and courtyards.

Will motor oil stain the decorative concrete after it has been sealed?
Not unless it is left for a long period of time. Wipe it with a rag or wash it with a hose.

How long before I can walk or drive on the concrete?
Your driveway can be driven on during the majority of the process. The concrete can be walked on daily.

How long does it take to complete the job?
It varies depending on the look you are striving for. A typical 600 square foot driveway will take approximately one week. Our policy is to remain on your job from start to completion. Down days are minimal and usually due to weather or to allow for client decision-making.

Do I need to let any workers in my house?
No.

Will there be any equipment or mess left on the job site?
No. There will be no dumpsters, portapotties, or trash piles left on the job.

Is this work environmentally friendly?
Yes. We utilize existing concrete. The energy used to break up, tear out, and transport materials is avoided. Waste disposal is minimal.

Do the products Capstone Concrete use have a proven track record?
We use commercial grade staining and sealing products from long-standing companies who have the best reputations in the industry: www.scofield.com and www.brickform.com.

Will the stain fade?
The fading is minimal even in extreme exterior applications. The stains we use have similar color and fading characteristics as real stone.

Will the surface be slippery after it is sealed?
No. We mix a non-skid additive with our sealer which provides excellent traction even around pools.

What about maintenance?
This surface requires little to no maintenance. Every 2 -5 years re-seal treatments may be applied in high wear areas for a minimal cost.
