Hand-Textured Concrete
Classic hand-textured concrete has been used for outdoor living areas for decades. The most commonly-used textures include broom and exposed aggregate finishes. Traditional hand-textured concrete has been the preferred finish for concrete pool deck surrounds due to the traction it offers on wet surfaces.

-
Broom Finish – Broom Finish concrete is achieved by dragging a special broom across the surface of wet concrete. Because this is done by hand, it takes a special skill to have it look good so it's best to leave this technique to professionals like the pros at CONCRETE DOC or Gruttadaurio Masonry.
-
Exposed Aggregate – Exposed Aggregate (Below) is achieved by removing the top layer of cement paste from wet concrete to reveal the stones and sand embedded within. At a precision time, the top layer of paste is washed and brushed away leaving the textured aggregate exposed.
Stamped Concrete
A very popular upscale concrete technique used for outdoor living space is stamped concrete, which is also known as decorative concrete. It can mimic materials like natural slate, stone, and wood in a distinct pattern, at a more economical price than using the real thing. Not only can stamped concrete patios elevate any patio area, they are easier to maintain than wooden decks or pavers. Resurfacing your patio with stamped concrete also gives you a great deal of design customization.
