The Importance of Cleaning and Sealing Your Concrete

Concrete can develop a lot of wear and tear over years. While concrete is a strong substance, weather and constant use can cause it to deteriorate over time. If you would like to get the most efficient use out of your concrete, cleaning and sealing your concrete is a great option. 

Sealing your concrete can help with the following.

Extended Durability

With the proper care, your concrete can last for up to 10 years before needing a new sealer coat. Without using a sealant on your concrete, it will endure much more wear and tear from debris, dirt, oil, salt, and other chemicals. Sealing can also prevent discoloration, cracking, and crumbling.

Color Enhancement

If you have colored concrete installed, sealing and cleaning are even more important for durability. Not only will it protect, but sealing will help improve the overall appearance of colored concrete. If colored concrete is not protected, it could lead to discoloration and cause the color to fade. Be sure to look into this option if you have color-enhanced concrete.

ReVITILIZE The Appearance of CONCRETE

If you are looking to revitalize concrete that has accumulated dirt and grime, power washing is a great option for outdoor projects. Having dirty concrete can also lead to mold and shorten the lifespan of your concrete.

Mold Deterrent

Concrete is a very strong surface. Due to the nature of pouring concrete, dust and debris that is laying on the surface is subject to accumulating mold. Concrete gains mold with the absorbance of moisture. When mold accumulates, it will have a green discoloration. If you choose to seal your concrete, it will be much harder for mold to grow.

Extended Life

If your concrete is not cleaned and sealed, it will most likely not last. Without a sealant, discoloration, crumbling, and molding will occur faster. When concrete is sealed, it is creating a protective barrier to repel any potential damage. Each project is inspected to make sure the process is thorough.
