At SurfaceScapes SUNDEK Memphis, we have been resurfacing concrete patios at residences and commercial properties for more than 50 years. We love helping our customers create a surface for their outdoor space that's both beautiful and functional.
Why resurface a concrete patio?
If your patio surface is uneven or has stains, cracks, or other damage, resurfacing it is often the best solution. You can also resurface your patio to upgrade its design. SUNDEK has a variety of colors, textures, and patterns to choose from.
About cracks in concrete surfaces
Cracks arise for a variety of reasons. Here are some reasons you may have cracks in your concrete patio:
- Improper installation
- Problems with the concrete mix
- Freeze/thaw damage
- Soil that was poorly compacted before the concrete installation
- Roots from a nearby tree
At SUNDEK, in addition to resurfacing concrete, we also repair it. We can resolve the cracks (or any other damage) and refinish the surface so you won't even be able to tell the damage was there. We'll also analyze the damage so you can prevent it from occurring again. Your local SUNDEK contractor can help you figure out the best way to resolve cracks, if necessary.
About uneven concrete surfaces
Even if your concrete patio isn't level, SUNDEK can resurface it. Our contractors will apply a thicker coating wherever needed to make the surface even. In the end, you'll have a patio without trip hazards or spots where water puddles, making it a safer surface that's less prone to damage.
Frequently asked questions
What is concrete resurfacing?
Concrete resurfacing begins with an existing concrete surface. After preparing the surface, a concrete overlay (also called a concrete coating) is applied to the existing concrete. See some of the colors, textures, and masonry effects that can be added.
Does concrete resurfacing last?
A concrete overlay will last for many years when its correctly applied and protected by a sealer, even if there’s heavy foot traffic. By keeping up with cleaning and maintenance and reapplying sealer, you can keep your patio looking fresh longer.
How much does it cost to resurface a patio?
Concrete resurfacing costs are less than what you'd spend to rip out and replace your patio. It’s also less messy and time consuming. SUNDEK can resurface a patio in just a few days.
Costs vary by region, and the current state of your concrete patio. When working with one of our contractors, you’ll receive a customized quote based on a price per square foot. Contact your local contractor to get an estimate.
Is it possible to resurface stamped concrete?
Yes, SUNDEK can apply a concrete coating over a stamped concrete surface. Additionally, we can create a stamped concrete overlay over any existing concrete surface.
Can you epoxy a concrete patio?
Epoxy flooring is typically used for commercial spaces and garages, but you can also apply it to patios. Contact your local SUNDEK authorized contractor to find out if epoxy is right for your patio.
