Stained Concrete
If you have been considering adding color to your concrete floor, stained concrete is one of the excellent options available. Your floors will produce luminous translucent tones with stained concrete, rather than the solid or opaque look that paints give.
The results of stained concrete can be anything you want it to be. You can mimic stained wood, natural stone, tanned leather, or even polished marble. Concrete staining has become the popular option for people looking to enhance their residential or commercial concrete floors.
What type of
Stained Concrete do you need?
Usually, acid stains are a mixture of water, acid-soluble metallic salts, and hydrochloric acid. Acid stains penetrate and chemically react with the calcium hydroxide in the concrete to produce rich natural color variations that resemble the appearance of marble or granite (mottled appearance). Once the acid reacts with the concrete, it becomes a permanent part of the concrete and won’t fade, scratch, or chip away. Acid Stain has a limited range of colors, and the hues are usually earthy tones, such as browns, tans, soft blue-greens, and terra cotta.

Water-Based Stains
If you are looking for a more colorful and intensified look, water-based stains are your best option. They offer a variety of colors and come in the full spectrum of shades. Just like with water-based paints, you can combine colors to achieve your desired results. The beauty of water-based stain is that it provides a uniform color, unlike acid stains that produce a mottled appearance.
Both outcomes are unique and beautiful in their own way. It boils down to the look you’re trying to achieve. Whether you are going for acid stain or water-based stain, you should know that they don’t disguise your concrete surface. They are enhancers. This means that they will not hide the blemishes, cracks, or other flaws in your concrete slab. This is why at Houston Polished Concrete & Staining Company, we evaluate your concrete floors first and carry out repairs if needed before we begin the staining process.

Our
Concrete staining process
At Houston Polished Concrete & Staining Company, our team of highly experienced engineers will work with you from start to finish to ensure your concrete floors takes on the look you want.
Step 1
We clean and prepare the concrete surface
This is the most important step as the concrete must be rid of dust, dirt, adhesives, oil, mud, stains, and sealers.
Step 2
Apply the stain
Whatever type of stain you have chosen to go with, this is where the application starts.
Step 3
We neutralize the stain
After the stain must have sat for a while, neutralization begins. This step is crucial. It ensures that any extra acid buildup is removed.
Step 4
Seal the surface
We use sealants to protect the floor further. The type of sealant we use depends on if it’s an interior or exterior concrete slab. For interiors stained concrete floors, we might apply liquid concrete wax for further protection.
