Sidewalks
Sidewalks are one of the most important exterior elements of a home. Whether traveling from driveway to porch, patio to pool, back door to backyard, there are any number of configurations that are well-served with a customized sidewalk to make the distance easy and smooth. Beautify these pathways with customized installations from Santoro Cement, established and experienced cement and concrete contractors serving Southeast Michigan.
Upgrade the Basic Sidewalk with Stamped Concrete
When first installed during the initial house build, sidewalks are often poured as blocks of nondescript concrete. They are considered a utilitarian way to move from one point to the next. Eventually, though, daily wear and tear from foot traffic, sun, and weather begins to tire out the cement. When you notice changes, it’s time for an upgrade.
One of the sturdiest ingredients in an upgrade from a basic sidewalk include the implementation of stamped concrete. Stamps are embossed or imprinted into concrete and the result is a material that gives the illusion of depth while remaining smooth but not slippery. Stamped concrete can be tweaked to resemble unexpected materials such as:
- Wood plank: Choose a weathered reclaimed timber pattern like a boardwalk or a fresh color for clever aesthetics that boast detailed wood grain.
- Cobblestone: Create an aura of old city streets that welcome footsteps and wheels with attractive cobblestone stamps.
- Brick: Make sidewalks match the façade of your brick home without and of the drawbacks of brick underfoot.
- Flagstone: Budget-friendly when it’s made from cement, stamped concrete flagstone is available in multiple colors, shapes, and sizes.
- Slate: Seamless, subtle, and natural-looking, stamped concrete slate is a durable and cost-effective option for busy sidewalks.
Beautify Your Sidewalks
When it’s time to elevate the exterior of your home, it’s smart to start with sidewalks which deliver texture and curb appeal. The presence of a handsome sidewalk is more powerful than you might have imagined and it’s a detail that is difficult to ignore when you finally invest in an upgrade. The goal is to create any of the following:
- Long-lasting, strong walkway.
- Stunning route to the entrance of your home.
- Pathway to the backyard and patio.
- Unexpected walkways throughout the property.
- Attractive welcome from driveway to porch.
Elevate Sidewalks and Curb Appeal
Sidewalks often lose their appeal for homeowners when they begin to crumble, suffer from weather damage, or are difficult to maintain. When the look of your sidewalks is no longer cutting it, start with improved sidewalks around your home.
Unexpected colors and sophisticated designs mimic the appearance of real materials in the form of concrete or cement so you can have the look you want and quality too. With the right kind of pathway placed in the right space, you can:
- Replace deteriorating materials.
- Increase curb appeal.
- Expand outdoor living space.
- Connect new areas of the lawn.
- Add beauty.
- Customize.
