Scherger says homeowners might choose
combinations of finishes, with the border
showing one feature and the driveway
or walkway showing another — stamped
concrete alongside exposed aggregate, or
stamped concrete with a coloured border and
so on.
"We add different colour dyes to the concrete
— browns or reds or blacks, or even a grey,
but you can make it a combination of different
shades," Scherger says.
"So you can get a two-toned driveway in two
pours: They form it up, then remove the forms
and pour in around with the second colour."
Regardless of the design or purpose, outdoor
concretes need a special formula.
"There are mix specifications for concrete
that's exposed to freeze-thaw cycles and de-
icing salts, so we supply that, and if they need
colour, we just add that right into that mix,"
he says.
