Brush Up Your Property with Broom Finished Concrete
Creating a Slip-Resistant Surface
Muenster contractors are experts at broom finished concrete. Our family-owned company is well-known in the Bartlett community and have been expanding our service area across Illinois.
So why choose broomed cement? Broom or brushed concrete is a surface finish achieved by running a stiff-bristled broom over freshly poured concrete to create a textured pattern on the surface.
Broom-finished concrete is commonly used for outdoor areas such as driveways, walkways, porches, stairs, and patios because it offers a slip-resistant surface that enhances safety, durability, and visual interest.
Unlike stamped concrete, you can drive on broomed concrete without degrading the surface. For the same reason, brushed cement is ideal for areas near a swimming pool and other wet areas where added traction reduces the possibility of slips and falls.
The Broom Finish Process
Once the concrete is poured and hand-troweled, a broom, typically with nylon brushes, is used to create decorative effects by sweeping it about without stopping.
Unlike stamped concrete, which uses forms to engrave designs, broom-finished concrete is an art form beyond the mechanics of installing concrete.
You can choose between horizontal strokes, vertical strokes, diagonal patterns, or even the popular California brushed finish which is a broomed center with a smooth border. You can even pick square sections or rectangles. And lots of people love to do brushed centers with colored stamped borders. So yeah, it is way more customizable than most people think.
Benefits of Broomed Concrete
5 reasons Muenster recommends brushed cement to Bartlett and nearby Illinois homeowners
Texture
Brushing concrete creates a textured surface with subtle ridges and indentations, offering improved traction and grip, particularly in wet or icy conditions. Such a textured finish not only enhances safety by reducing the risk of slips and falls but also adds visual interest and dimension to the concrete surface.
Durability
Customization
The unique appearance of brushed concrete results from the varying angle and pressure of the broom strokes. For a particularly distinctive look, you can create smooth California finish borders to contrast with broom finished interior areas. Decorative aggregates can be incorporated into the concrete mix to create further a unique and personalized look that complements the surrounding landscape and architectural style.
Low Maintenance
Broom finished concrete is easily maintained by regular routine cleaning with a broom, leaf blower, or pressure washer to remove debris, dirt, and stains. Every three years, you should re-apply a cure and seal for added protection.
Cost-Effective
Broom finished concrete is a cost-effective option for achieving a textured surface without compromising on durability or aesthetics. Its simplicity in application and minimal material requirements make it an affordable choice. Great for large patios, or long driveways.
