What is Concrete Staining?
Concrete staining is a decorative finishing process that infuses rich, lasting color into concrete surfaces. Unlike paint, stains penetrate deep into the concrete, creating natural, variegated tones that won’t peel, chip, or fade easily. Available in acid-based and water-based options, stained concrete offers a durable, customizable look for both indoor and outdoor spaces.
