Extend your living space with a cozy concrete patio

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.

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.

Still happy with custom floors after 13 years

Established 1973 in Calgary, Alberta, Rilpa Enterprises offers helicopter maintenance, support and equipment leasing services.

Back in 2006 we created a unique and original lobby floor by incorporating the Rilpa logo. After 13 years they needed a couple of minor touch-ups under some rolling office chairs, but they are still very happy with their stained concrete floors.

Hardscapes is a one-stop concrete flooring shop for anything from simple solid colour choices to beautiful, but more complex multi-coloured stained and metallic reflector floors.

Hardscapes’ solutions to repair & rebuild your driveway surface

Over the years water, snow and ice, and even city-fed runoff from sewer gutters, can cause erosion under your driveway surface. This leaves your concrete driveway slab vulnerable to cracking, and if not properly repaired, possible collapse.

To solve this problem can entail a dual process.

First, a process called mud jacking pumps high-pressured grout into the void under the driveway through holes cut in the surface. The process fills the space between the foundation element and the eroding soil.

Second, after the elevation discrepancy has been corrected your driveway will likely be left with cracking and the inevitable patchwork to cover the holes made to apply the process.

So that your concrete slab is pristine after the above procedures, Hardscapes has a number of solutions to repair and rebuild your driveway surface. To learn more about our products and repair systems, give us a shout at 403-547-5597.  We’ll find the solution right for your unique issue.

Did you know that radiant heated concrete flooring is even an option?

You may not be building a new home, but if you are thinking of resurfacing your existing concrete basement floors, radiant heating may be an idea you want to explore this fall.

Radiant heated concrete floors can provide both beauty and warmth under foot, resulting in a more comfortable living environment. In fact, concrete floor radiant heating consumes less energy to achieve the same level of comfort, ultimately lowering utility costs.

Radiant floor heating is available in most situations. For newer floors or complete renos, cable forms are installed in the concrete slab when it’s poured, but for but already existing concrete floors, mat form can be embedded with a quick and easy installation in thin-set cement.

Have questions or need more information?

Call Hardscapes at 403-547-5597 to discuss how radiant heated concrete can be installed anywhere in your home or garage.
