KK Concreting — Slate Finish Concrete
Slate Finish Concrete

The look of laid stone, with no joints to weed through.

A slate texture pressed into the surface while the concrete's still wet. Reads like laid stone, but it's one continuous slab — nothing to lift, shift or grow weeds through.

What a slate finish actually is

Textured stamps are pressed into the surface after it's poured and screeded, while the concrete is still workable, then coloured and sealed once cured. It's one continuous slab underneath the texture — not individual pieces of paving.

Why homeowners choose it

Stone look, one slabReads like laid stone or pavers, without individual joints for weeds or ants to get into.
Nothing to shiftOne continuous pour, so there's no paver to work loose or settle unevenly over time.
Works indoors and outCommon on patios as well as driveways, wherever a textured, natural look is wanted.

How a job runs

Four stages, in order. You'll know which one we're up to.

01

Site visit and quote

We measure up, check access for the truck and the fall for drainage, then quote a fixed price with the finish written on it.

02

Prep and formwork

Excavation, compacted base, formwork set to line and level, and reinforcement tied. This stage decides how the finished job looks.

03

Pour and finish

Concrete placed, screeded and worked to the finish you chose. Exposed aggregate gets washed back once the surface has gone off enough.

04

Cuts, seal and clean up

Expansion cuts in, sealer applied where it's needed, formwork and spoil taken away. We tell you when it's right to drive on.
