Stamped Concrete in Peterborough & Durham – Our Proven Proce

Whether you're creating a new patio or revamping a front entry, our team is the Peterborough concrete contractor homeowners trust for lasting beauty and performance.

 

Stage 1: Superior Site Preparation, Fabric Reinforcement & Compaction

Every durable concrete project starts with a strong base.

  • High-performance equipment suited for any terrain.
     
  • 98% compaction rating with our advanced RCM process.
     
  • 4”–12” compacted gravel base, customized to the slab thickness.
     
  • Multi-lift compaction to eliminate settling or shifting.
     

Geotextile Fabric Installation:

  • Prevents soil migration into gravel, ensuring permanent stability.
     
  • Stops moisture buildup, protecting against frost heave and erosion.
     
  • Creates a barrier that eliminates contamination and weak spots.
     

Why We’re Better: Most contractors in Peterborough and Durham skip geotextile fabric, leading to settling and slab failures. Our reinforced base ensures permanent strength.


Stage 2: Precision Carpentry for Custom Designs

Our carpenters form patios, porches, steps, and walkways with millimeter accuracy.

  • Custom shapes, curves, and design features.
     
  • Structures built for both strength and aesthetics.
     

Why We’re Better: Many competitors use basic forms. We build customized layouts that enhance appearance and durability.

Stage 3: Reinforcement with Vinyl Rebar & Vapor Barriers

We use the most advanced reinforcement methods in Ontario.

  • Vinyl rebar: 2.5X stronger than steel, corrosion-proof, and longer-lasting.
     
  • Lightweight, high-strength reinforcement that ensures structural integrity for decades.
     
  • Vapor barriers installed in moisture-prone areas to prevent slab curling, mold, and deterioration.
     

Why We’re Better: Most stamped concrete contractors in Peterborough and Durham ignore moisture barriers. We protect your slab from the ground up.


Stage 4 & 5: Concrete Placement & Finishing

We pour and finish concrete with precision methods designed for strength and appearance.

  • Screeding for level surfaces.
     
  • Magnesium float and steel trowel finishing for smooth, durable results.
     
  • Custom stamping techniques for natural stone, slate, wood, or tile looks.
     

Why We’re Better: Our finishing prevents defects, reduces cracking, and ensures a professional appearance.


Stage 6: Structural Integrity & Final Touches

  • Strategic relief cuts control expansion and prevent random cracking.
     
  • Clean form removal for professional edges.
     
  • Proper backfilling for long-term stability.
     
  • Optional foundation anchors for added slab stability during freeze-thaw cycles.
     

Why We’re Better: Most companies ignore anchoring. Our slabs remain aligned and stable through Ontario’s toughest winters.


Stage 7: Protection & Sealing (Stamped Concrete Only)

We protect every stamped concrete surface in Peterborough and Durham with commercial-grade sealers.

  • Deep cleaning and washing prior to sealing.
     
  • Sealers that resist stains, salt, and weathering.
     
  • Optional anti-slip coatings for safety around pools and walkways.
     

Why We’re Better: Standard sealers fade quickly. Our sealing system provides long-lasting color retention and protection.


Advanced Concrete Mixes for Maximum Durability

  • 15+ years of testing with building science professionals.
     
  • High-strength 35MPa mix with mono-poly fiber reinforcement.
     
  • Vinyl rebar and optional embedded sensors for performance monitoring.
     

Why We’re Better: Many local contractors rely on standard mixes. Our engineered concrete delivers superior strength and longevity.
