What Is The Flake Effect?

Have you ever seen those concrete driveways or sidewalks that have a really rough surface? They’re often called Flake Effect concrete. This type of concrete is created by adding a particular aggregate to the mix. The aggregate is then exposed to a grinding process that creates a rough surface.

What should I know about this?

This type of concrete is often used in places where a skid-resistant surface is needed, such as pool decks and driveways. This effect can be applied in many ways, from thin layers over existing surfaces to thicker sections for walkways and patios. The result usually has a speckled, flaky appearance with varied color tones that lend visual interest.

This effect also serves practical purposes, as the rough texture helps provide traction on wet or icy surfaces. This effect is an attractive and durable choice for any outdoor space! This effect is a stylish and versatile option that can help create an inviting atmosphere. It’s also relatively easy to clean, making it an excellent choice for homeowners looking for something low-maintenance and aesthetically pleasing. With the proper maintenance and care, this type of concrete can last for years!
