Working with natural flagstone can be challenging and expensive. Concrete forms provide a cost-effective and attractive alternative to actual flagstones when building a new patio, floor, pool deck or driveway.
Flagstone concrete stamps are low-maintenance. There is no need to weed in between joints, and you don’t have to worry about mortar and joints cracking.
Concrete stamps are easy to use, and most projects are completed in a day or two. Stamps are available in a variety of shapes and patterns to create realistic flagstone patterns.
Concrete contractors benefit from the low cost of flagstone concrete stamps. Since the stamps can be reused, your initial investment will be returned in only a few jobs. Stamps are made from both rigid plastic and flexible rubber materials and hold up for years.
Floors and patios built with concrete stamps look attractive, and it is often difficult to tell the difference between concrete patterns and real stone. Concrete patios hold up to changes in weather and last for years with minimum maintenance.
Flagstone patterns look great on any outdoor project, including on patios, walkways and pool decks. Some owners even use them to decorate full driveways. Adding color or stains allows homeowners to match the concrete patterns to their natural landscape to maximize curb appeal.
All flagstone concrete stamps are high-quality tools designed to impress quality patterns that mimic natural flagstone. Our in-house artisans design patterns in our rigid plastic forms. The forms fit together to create a repeatable pattern across the entire surface of your project. Flexible forms allow you to create patterns in tight spaces and close to the edge of a house or wall. In addition, there are forms to create edge patterns to match the design on the flat surface.
There are several options for coloring and dying your flagstone concrete project. You can add color mix into the concrete before pouring, and colors can be mixed into the concrete batch on the job site.
Once the job is poured and hardened, you have several options to dye and stain the surface to provide an attractive, long-lasting finish.
Water-based dyes are applied to new concrete surfaces, and these dyes produce solid colors that safely penetrate in a few minutes. These dyes penetrate deeply and are most often used indoors on countertops and can be polished for a shiny, stone-like look.
These water-based or acid-based stains are popular for coloring and staining both new and older concrete surfaces. These stains are available as concentrates to dilute with water and apply with a spray wand applicator.
This wash is a great option if you want a two-toned antique look to your concrete surface. The mottled effect gives new surfaces a faded-over-time look.
This product gets added directly to concrete in the mixing stage. It will produce color all the way through the slab. Advantages are ease of use and color is still there if the slab chips.
