FULL-DEPTH, UNIFORM COLOUR
At Italcon Concreting, we mix a powdered pigment oxide into the concrete, which gives it the rich, vibrant hue you desire. Mixing the pigment in prior to laying the concrete ensures the best quality finish. We are committed to using world-class pigments with weather-resistant properties to ensure your new concrete feature will stand the test of time.
Our pigment mixing process ensures that you get a uniform colour all the way through your concrete surface, negating the need for additional coloured coatings (even if the concrete were to become chipped or scratched).

Sealing can also help to prevent staining, which is particularly important when used on a driveway or other high-traffic areas. Concrete should be resealed every two years to ensure it continues looking its best.
You should avoid touching concrete for the first 24 hours so that it has time to set.

These aggregates naturally possess a variety of colours, textures, and sizes.From the earthy tones of brown and tan pebbles to the subtle hues of blue or green in certain stones, the aggregate's natural colours significantly contribute to the final look of the concrete surface.
