Stained Concrete
Whether you're trying to add a splash of color to a plain room or you're interested in adding some elegance, stained cement mix floors can add instant character. These amazing floors can be done by any DIY enthusiast or our team at Vancouver Concrete.
The surface should be thoroughly cleaned during the process to remove dirt and dust. Then, it would be best if you let the cement mix dry completely. After that, you must be sure there's no moisture on the surface, as it may interfere with the coloring effect. Afterward, you must apply a stain diluted with water to a clean surface. You can try it in a remote area to check for color or texture before committing to a large area if you're unsure.
Stained concrete offers a wide variety of decorative possibilities for a reasonable price. When properly applied, stains penetrate the cement mix, resulting in a floor that has depth and dimension. However, each floor will have a slightly different appearance. The color will depend on the age and composition of the cement mix and how porosity affects the result.

While most stains can be easily cleaned by mopping or wiping them down, more intricate designs and colors require professional services. In addition, high-end staining requires skilled professionals who can blend the different colors and patterns into a seamless design. Our team of trained specialist will work with you all the way to achieve the look you are wanting.
High-end staining can incorporate complex saw-cut patterns and decorative sandblasting. You can expect to pay between $8 and $15 per square foot, depending on the complexity of the design. If you opt to have your stained cement mix floor sealed, you will want to ensure it is cool enough to encourage the staining process. A heater will also help the process along. If the room is hot, you should be careful not to turn it on during staining or applying sealant. This will increase the risk of the sealant not bonding correctly with the surface. It may also cause uneven drying and could lead to flaking and cloudiness.

There are two types of stains used for stained cement mix floors. The first type uses acid-based stains, while the other uses water-based stains. These chemicals react chemically with the cement mix to create color variations. The resulting color is subtle and can resemble marble, granite, wood, and other surfaces. Acid stains are limited to earth tones, including tans, browns, and soft blue-greens. Stained cement mix floors are an excellent alternative to hardwood and carpet, perfect for any home or commercial business.
