I’m Jake, a technician here at Perfect Paver Co., and I’m excited to take you through the recent makeover we gave to a severely faded stamped concrete pool deck in Mason, Ohio.
Our journey began when a customer, facing the deteriorating state of their pool’s stamped concrete after 15 years, contemplated an expensive solution – complete excavation and a five-figure investment in a new pool deck.
The original vibrant color of the stamped concrete had faded due to relentless exposure to UV rays and harsh Ohio weather. The customer, referred to Perfect Paver Co., recognized the need for a more feasible fix. Upon our initial assessment, we determined that the stamped concrete’s overall structure and quality were still intact, prompting our enthusiasm to provide a practical restoration solution.
Moving on to the restoration process, we started with a thorough steam cleaning to remove surface dirt and stains. Confirming a clean canvas, we rejuvenated the existing sealer through solvent application, addressing surface damages and releasing trapped moisture. In this case, the client opted for additional coloring to even out inconsistencies caused by varying sunlight exposure.
Due to extensive fading, we applied multiple rounds of the rejuvenation process, including color staining, returning the next day to assess the concrete’s condition before proceeding with sealing. My crew and I then meticulously applied the appropriate type and amount of sealant.
After three days, the project concluded successfully. The client not only saved significant time and money but also achieved the desired outcome for their backyard, now transformed into a lively party space.
I hope you enjoyed the story of this project as much as I enjoyed being a part of it. I love bringing old patios and driveways back to life and make them look beautiful again 😊.
