A tough, slip-resistant, natural-stone finish for driveways, patios and walkways that hides wear and lasts for decades.
Exposed aggregate is one of the most durable and best-looking finishes in concrete. By washing away the top layer of cement paste, we reveal the natural stone in the mix — giving you a textured, pebbled surface that's slip-resistant, hides dirt and tire marks, and ages beautifully. Concrete Impressions has poured exposed aggregate driveways, patios and walkways across Metro Detroit for over 35 years.
It's a favorite for Michigan driveways because the texture grips in wet and icy weather and the busy surface disguises the wear a plain grey slab would show. Pair it with a smooth stamped or colored border for a finished, high-end look, and seal it to deepen the color and protect the surface through freeze-thaw.
Durable, grippy driveways that handle Michigan winters and hide wear far better than a plain broom finish.
Textured, slip-resistant surfaces that stay cooler underfoot and resist the everyday traffic of an outdoor space.
Front walks and paths, often paired with a contrasting smooth or stamped border for definition.
Sealing to lock in the stone color and protect the surface, with simple periodic upkeep to keep it looking sharp.
Yes, slightly — it's a decorative finish that takes extra steps to place, wash and seal. It still costs less than most stamped work while giving you a premium, natural-stone look. Get a ballpark from our estimator and we'll confirm on site.
The opposite — the pebbled texture gives excellent grip, which is exactly why it's popular for driveways, pool decks and walkways in a freeze-thaw climate.
Yes. Sealing brings out the color of the stone and protects the surface. We seal it on installation and recommend resealing every few years.
Poured on a proper base and kept sealed, it lasts decades — and the busy surface hides the everyday wear that would show on plain concrete.
