What Is Concrete Staining?
Concrete staining is a decorative technique that transforms plain gray concrete into beautiful, colorful surfaces with unique patterns and designs. Unlike paint, stains penetrate deep into the concrete, creating permanent, fade-resistant color that enhances the natural beauty of the material.
Stained concrete offers a cost-effective way to achieve the look of expensive materials like natural stone, marble, or tile without the high cost or maintenance. Whether you're working with new concrete or existing surfaces, staining can completely transform the appearance of your floors, driveways, patios, and more.
Types of Concrete Staining
ATX Concrete Contractor offers two main types of concrete staining, each with its own unique characteristics and benefits.
We use both acid staining and water-based staining techniques to achieve the perfect look for your project:
Acid Staining
Acid stains create rich, variegated colors with unique, one-of-a-kind patterns that can't be duplicated. The acid reacts with minerals in the concrete to produce natural-looking earth tones like browns, tans, greens, and blues. Each application is unique, creating a truly custom appearance that mimics natural stone or marble.
Water-Based Staining
Water-based stains offer a wider range of colors, including vibrant hues and pastels that aren't possible with acid stains. These stains are easier to apply, have less odor, and provide more consistent color coverage. Perfect for achieving specific color schemes or matching your home's exterior palette.

Benefits of Stained Concrete
Stained concrete offers numerous advantages that make it an excellent choice for Central Texas homes and businesses:
Permanent Color
Unlike paint, stains penetrate deep into the concrete, creating permanent color that won't peel, chip, or fade over time. The color becomes part of the concrete itself, ensuring long-lasting beauty.
Unique Patterns
Each stained concrete surface is unique. Acid stains especially create natural, variegated patterns that can't be duplicated, giving your concrete a one-of-a-kind appearance that mimics natural stone or marble.
Cost-Effective
Stained concrete provides the look of expensive materials at a fraction of the cost. You get the aesthetic benefits of natural stone, marble, or tile without the premium price tag or ongoing maintenance.
Low Maintenance
Stained concrete is easy to maintain with regular cleaning and periodic resealing. The color won't fade or wear away, and sealed surfaces resist stains, spills, and weather damage.
Versatile Applications
Stained concrete works beautifully indoors and outdoors, on floors, driveways, patios, pool decks, and more. It's perfect for both residential and commercial applications.

Our Concrete Staining Process
Creating beautiful stained concrete requires proper preparation, expert application, and quality sealing. We follow a proven process that ensures stunning, lasting results.
Here's how ATX Concrete Contractor transforms your concrete with staining:
1. Surface Preparation
We thoroughly clean and prepare the concrete surface, removing any existing coatings, sealers, or contaminants. For new concrete, we ensure proper curing. For existing concrete, we may need to grind or etch the surface to ensure proper stain penetration.
2. Color Selection & Design
We work with you to select the perfect stain colors and design. We'll show you samples and discuss how different colors will look on your specific concrete. For custom patterns or multi-color designs, we'll create a plan that matches your vision.
3. Stain Application
We apply the stain using professional techniques, ensuring even coverage and proper penetration. For acid stains, we control the reaction time to achieve the desired color intensity. For water-based stains, we apply multiple coats as needed to achieve the perfect color.
4. Neutralizing & Cleaning
For acid stains, we neutralize the acid reaction and clean the surface thoroughly. This step is crucial for ensuring the stain is properly set and the surface is ready for sealing.
5. Sealing & Protection
We apply high-quality sealers to protect your stained concrete, enhance the color, and resist stains, spills, and weather damage. Proper sealing is essential for maintaining the beauty and longevity of stained concrete.
Why Our Process Matters
Proper preparation and expert application are critical for achieving beautiful, lasting stained concrete. We take the time to prepare surfaces correctly, apply stains with precision, and seal properly to ensure your stained concrete looks great for years to come.
