Decorative Concrete Academy

Company Overview

At Decorative Concrete Academy, we specialize in revitalizing your unsightly, discolored concrete surfaces like driveways, garage floors, pool decks, and patios. Our team will resurface your current concrete. A beautiful, tailored stone pattern will be applied right over your existing concrete.

There will be no costly, messy removal of the old concrete. Your new surface will be securely bonded to the old concrete through mechanical and chemical means. Yes, it must be thoroughly cleaned and prepared, but this method has been trusted for decades to repair structural concrete, such as cracked load-bearing bridges and walls.

The new surface will only measure between 1/4 and 3/8 inch thick. Pick from a wide array of custom stone designs. Options include brick, block, random stone, and more.

The surface will be available in your choice of hundreds of color combinations. You have the option to match or highlight the colors of your home, roof, or walls.

The simulated stone surface will feature texture and slip resistance. It is resistant to stains and can be easily cleaned with soap and water. The surface stays cool and is comfortable for bare feet.

The new surface boasts three times the strength of conventional concrete typically found in driveways, garage floors, pool decks, patios, or sidewalks.

Many surfaces in Boca Raton have been thriving for over thirty years. If cared for correctly, each installation is supported by an ironclad lifetime guarantee.

I began my full-time journey in the Decorative Concrete Overlay industry in 1989. A close college friend’s father patented one of the most unique and beautiful decorative concrete overlays at that time. He called it ""URO-TILE"".

In 1979, this process was truly ahead of its time. He spent a considerable amount on independent lab strength tests, demonstrating that his method outperformed others in the market.

After five or six years of learning and working with my friend, I chose to start my own business. I remained committed to my education. For anyone interested in becoming an expert, there are plenty of resources and classes available.

The Portland Cement Association and several leading manufacturers offer excellent classes. Various retailers organize weekend seminars to remain ahead in the field.

I think the reason customers with 13-year-old overlays are usually pleased to see me is due to the quality of our installations. Having studied building construction in college, I learned decorative concrete from top experts and continue to enhance my skills.
