2. Stamp Style
HAVEN CONCRETE offers different stamp styles. To help narrow down your choices, visit the showroom for more information like the accurate shape and texture of the material.
3. Base Color
Stamped concrete is colored using a two-fold system. Derived from the Uni-mix, the primary color is added to the redi-mix truck which results in the concrete taking on the selected color.
4. Release Color
Applied and stamped into the top of the concrete, the release color gives the material a two-toned color, which is not as simple as two-paint colors. The release gives a shade to the base color. If the customer selects a Uni-mix color, the release is added next. Finally, the actual sample is placed on site so the customer can see and compare the output in a real-life setting and lighting condition.
5. Step Design
Designing steps involves a few basic procedures. Over the years, we have received positive feedback on the use of decorative stairways on the overall appearance of a project.
