Each overlay solution from element7concrete is tailored to your space, climate, and design goals—delivering long-lasting results without the disruption of a full tear-out.

  • Hand-Troweled Exterior Concrete Overlay
    A smooth or subtly textured finish applied by hand to existing outdoor concrete. Ideal for patios, walkways, and pool decks, this overlay restores worn surfaces while improving durability, slip resistance, and overall curb appeal.

  • Hand-Troweled Interior Concrete Overlay
    A refined, modern finish for interior floors. This overlay creates a clean, seamless surface that pairs well with contemporary design, offering a durable alternative to tile or polished concrete without removing the existing slab.

  • Texture-Skin Stamped Concrete Overlays
    Designed to add realistic texture without deep patterns, texture-skin overlays mimic natural stone or subtle finishes. They’re perfect when you want visual interest and grip while maintaining a more organic, understated look.

  • Pattern Stamped Concrete Overlays
    These overlays replicate the look of stone, brick, tile, or custom patterns using stamped designs. Pattern stamping delivers high-impact aesthetics at a fraction of the cost of full replacement materials.

  • ReFresco Concrete Overlay
    ReFresco is a resurfacing solution that renews aging or damaged concrete with fresh texture and color. It’s an efficient, cost-effective way to restore strength and appearance while extending the life of your existing concrete.

Hand-Troweled Exterior Concrete Overlay

Cement, sand and polymer come together to make a coating that is skid-resistant, UV-stable, and economical.

These overlays may be integrally colored (oxide pigments in wet cement), stained, or colored with a solid color acrylic topcoat.

The look of concrete and the stain resistance of epoxy+urethane for remodeling projects. Our process has been improved over 1000s of floors in the last 15 years to be truly world class. Diamond-polished overlays have real problems, so we no longer install them. Contact us for details regarding what can be done, what we now, and why we do that.

Stamped Concrete

Overlays

These overlays are about 0.4” thick. Texture Skins are urethane mats with the texture of solid rock. We press them into the material before it hardens. Patterns can be saw-cut into the overlay creating something that is novel, familiar, and most of all honest. These overlays are not trying to look like anything other than good decorative concrete work.

Pattern Stamped Concrete Overlays

These overlays are about 0.4” thick. Pattern stamps are urethane mats with the texture of wood planks, cobblestone, etc. We press them into the material before it hardens. These overlays when the durability of concrete is needed with the look of something else. For instance, real wood planks for a lakeside living area would be a lot maintenance

ReFresco

We developed this technique in 2015 to basically paint exterior masonry surfaces with a layer that could be acid stained or otherwise expected to never fade or peel. Contact us for cool case-studies of how we used this process to solve problems.
