Imprinted Concrete

Because of its durability, imprinted concrete is frequently selected by homeowners as the preferred surface for their driveway or patio. Dapper specialise in the cleaning and sealing of all types of imprinted concrete driveways and patios.

When it is first laid it is coated with concrete sealer to protect the surface and enhance the appearance by giving the concrete a type of 'wet look'. The sealer will protect the concrete from wear, help to minimise any colour loss, plus help to prevent algae growing on the surface. A 'top up' coat of sealer should be applied every 3-5 years to keep the concrete in optimum condition.

As an existing owner of one of these driveways or patios, you are already aware of the great benefits - attractive to look at, weed free, easy to clean. Now you think it's starting to look a bit dull, there are some small cracks appearing, an annoying stain, the edges have crumbled a little bit and you want it repaired and restored.

What do we do?
We professionally clean, repair and reseal your pattern imprinted concrete driveway, paving or patio.

How do we do it?
Using specialist chemicals, we breakdown the existing surface. As necessary, we repair any cracks, chips or crumbling using matching colours and then apply a new sealant coating to protect the surface against colour fade and frost, giving it that "as new" look.

How long does it last?
As with any new pattern imprinted concrete driveway or patio, this depends upon the amount of traffic and wear and tear. A regularly used drive may need to be resealed every 2-3 years, a patio that has infrequent use can last for 5 years before it needs a reseal.
