Have a vision for your summer outdoor space?!

It’s that time of year again – time to think about outdoor living! Concrete is a great choice for creating an outdoor summer space – the perfect material for a beautiful, cozy patio. Concrete patios can have many different looks and finishes — a multitude of design options to suit your unique preferences.

Coloured Concrete can add beauty and design to your patio. There are now so many different colored finishes that you would need to use a colour chart to decide!

Stamped Concrete can have the look and feel of any stone or brick surface you can imagine. Everything from stone pavers to naturally worn stone pavers. A great option for any backyard concrete patio.

Stained Concrete can add a durable and beautiful colour to your patio with hundreds of colours and finishes from which to choose.

Stencilled Concrete can leave a look of an open area rug to enhance the look of your concrete surface. A great conversation starter : )

Exposed Aggregate along with smooth concrete sections is a beautiful option for your new patio and can be manipulated for any design requirement.

Be proactive! Start planning to extend your living space with a cozy concrete patio.

If you’re considering a summer patio project and don’t have a clue where to begin, give us a shout at 403-547-5597. We look forward to discussing your design ideas.

Time to spring clean the garage after the messy winter season?

Well, spring’s officially arrived and we all know what that means … almost time to pull the lawn furniture out of storage in the garage and clean up all the stones, mud, salt, and even oil stains, that your vehicle has deposited on your garage floor over the winter.

All that mess isn’t the worst part though. You notice a nice sized crack has developed in the concrete from the huge temperature swings we experience here in Alberta in the winter months. What to do?!

Definitely don’t try to patch it up with concrete sealer available in the local hardware store. Save time and money and get Hardscapes Inc. to repair, restore and protect your floor. You’ll be the envy of your neighbours : )

Looking for commercial or industrial floor coating options?

Here at Hardscapes we have many years of commercial/industrial concrete flooring experience — solutions for restaurants, retail/commercial flooring, and even warehouse/industrial flooring are all within the scope of our work.

Specializing in many finishes, our products are ideal for high-traffic areas and areas requiring slip-resistant textures and finishes.

In addition, we offer resurfacing processes (over existing concrete) and have the equipment necessary to remove the epoxy, paint, glue, thin-set, and mastic. All of these coatings can be removed without the use of harmful chemicals. We utilize dust collection for all of our grinding/removal processes and leave nice smooth concrete ready for staining, engraving, or coating with any of our beautiful finishes.

Our concrete diamond polishing & densifying processes will bring your concrete up to a sparkling shine.

We offer a high level of customer service and attention to detail, and we take pride in every project we undertake! Get in touch today at 403-547-5597 for a no-obligation quote that will address your specific needs and budget.

Long lasting, incredibly durable & easy-to-clean flooring system

Hardscapes has poured and restored many garage floors. Polyaspartic coatings with metallic pigments give a long lasting, incredibly durable and easy-to-clean flooring system are used in many of our projects.

Introduced in the 1990s polyaspartic became a new class of coating. Because polyaspartics can be formulated with slower reaction rates, they can be roller-applied or spray-applied with conventional paint sprayers without the use of solvent. Polyaspartic coatings are 100% UV resistant and will not age or yellow, have a non-skid texture which ensures safety and provides years of easy maintenance.

Oh, and it looks amazing too!

Give Hardscapes a shout at 403-547-5597 for more information or to discuss your concrete project ideas. We’re here and happy to be of service.

Hardscapes knows concrete

Weather DamageThis weekend’s temps are definitely frigid -29 brrrr. Extended periods of below -20 can wreak havoc on your mental attitude as well as outside structures and concrete.

The freezing temperature of concrete is approximately 28ºF (-2º C). Concrete does not maintain its strength when poured at low temperatures. Almost 50% of strength loss can occur if the concrete freezes within the first few hours after placement. Temperature affects the rate at which hydration of the cement occurs. Low concrete temperatures will stall the set and weaken the strength.

Hardscapes Inc. knows about concrete and the ramifications of big dips in temperature. We know how to keep it from cracking and heaving and we know how to make it look amazing at the same time.

Call 403-547-5597 to learn more about our products and services or if you have questions you need answers to. If you have a concrete project you’d like to get underway, your can rest assured that Hardscapes will ensure your it runs smoothly from start to finish.

Looking to get your concrete project under way this spring?

The experts at Hardscapes offer a complete line of concrete treatments and create perfect concrete structure every time.

Not too long ago we completed the parkade for the Residences of King Edward in Calgary. Concrete surfaces involve a multi-level process, especially when working with any area as large as a parkade.

The Residences of King Edward parkade had joints filled with polyurea, the slab was densified to prevent salt damage, and finally, line painting to finish it off. Check out the images below to see the finished project.

If you have a concrete project you’d like to get under way this spring, give us a call at 403-547-5597. We have many years of experience installing concrete surfaces and can recommend solutions for restaurants, hospitals, clinics, retail commercial flooring, and warehouse/industrial flooring. Most concrete projects – large and small – are within the scope of our expertise.
