Stamped concrete is a marvelous addition to any landscape. Its durability and beauty will bring real value to your property and it’s a feature that is sure to be a topic of conversation at your next gathering. By following these simple concrete cleaning tips, you can minimize the wear and tear on your concrete and ensure it remains in tip-top condition.
- Seal your concrete to help prevent stains, but remember you’ll still need to sweep and wash the surface regularly. A simple scrub with mild detergent can go a long way towards keeping the surface from diminishing in appearance.
- Avoid using de-icing salts on your stamped concrete. This is especially true in the first winter season after it is installed.
- Check for signs the sealer is no longer protecting your concrete. Foot traffic, washing, sunlight, and plenty of other causes can remove sealer. It the surface has lost its sheen, then reapply a fresh coat of sealant.
- Power wash with care. When using a power washer, follow the instructions carefully to avoid etching your concrete.
