ATX Stained Concrete uses the most modern, high-quality products and techniques to ensure your stained concrete floors turn out just as you desired.

Benefits of Stained Concrete and Polished Concrete

Go Green

Utilizing your concrete slab as flooring is a "green" solution for businesses and homes alike. Repurposing old foundations minimizes waste and materials, and the materials used to polish concrete are not harmful. Using our environmental friendly products qualifies many commercial projects for LEED points.

Creative and Attractive Flooring

Out with the carpet or tile and in with the new. Concrete is not limited to rough and grey. Concrete staining and polishing has no bounds - from vibrant colors or natural stains to emulating natural hardwood or marble with long-lasting concrete. Add character to your home while leveraging the most cost-effective flooring on the market.

Lowest Cost and  Minimum Maintenance

Installing new tiles, carpet or even epoxy flooring costs about the same as concrete polishing and staining. When it comes to long-term costs, the lifespan of concrete paired with the lack of maintenance makes concrete the most cost effective flooring solution on the market. No need for deep cleans, pesky grout or dust mites. Use concrete for your home or commercial building.

Types of Stained Floors

There are various techniques for concrete staining, and our highly-experienced team offers many solutions to match your needs. Two common options are acid staining and water based stains. The two have very different effects on concrete, so we outlined a few pros and cons below to help you decide. Not sure what’s best? Call us today for a free consultation.

 

  • Acid Staining: Acid based stains use hydrochloric acid and metallic dyes to create a chemical reaction with the lime in concrete. The acids and dyes are absorbed, penetrating and permanently staining the top layer. Because acid staining extends inside the concrete, the stain lasts forever. Chips or cracks reveal layers matching the stain, and re-polishing floors will not remove the stain as years go by. However, the range of colors are more limited for acid stains.

 

  • Water-based staining: Water based stains use polymer and pigments to penetrate concrete floors with a variety of colors and effects. The stain also penetrates the upper layer of concrete and achieves a permanent result. The depth of the stain is a bit shallower than acid staining, but only uncommon, deep cracks can reveal original concrete underneath.

Results from concrete staining depend on the quality of products and skill of your technician.  Concrete with minimal damage is recommended, but minor damage can be repaired or even complemented with staining and polishing. Learn more about our polished concrete floors.

Stained concrete floors add a touch of elegance and uniqueness to any space. The process involves applying a chemical stain to the concrete, which reacts with the minerals in the concrete to create a permanent color change.  They are highly durable, low-maintenance, and resistant to moisture and wear, making them suitable for both residential and commercial spaces. Stained concrete floors are a cost-effective alternative to traditional flooring options and can significantly enhance the aesthetic appeal of any property.
