How Do You Stamp A Concrete Sidewalk & Stairs?

0

Patterned concrete or imprinted concrete is commonly referred to as “stamped” concrete. This is concrete, that while still wet, is impregnated with color or designs to resemble slate, stone, flagstone, brick, or wood. Quite often creative designs, such as leaves, shells, or twigs, are impressed in the concrete. When stamped concrete is used for stairs, steps, or sidewalks, the depressed designs provide traction as well as visual interest. Following basic instructions and using stamping tools and color agents, it’s quite easy to stamp and color concrete sidewalks and steps to add curb appeal and visual interest to your home. Choose your stamping design. Steps and sidewalks lend themselves to a smaller patterns than larger areas, such as a driveways, floors, or patios. Choose designs without large imprints that will trap water or catch a heel and cause a fall. If the pattern you choose has straight lines, they should run in the same direction as the pitch or drainage of the steps or side
