Exposed aggregate is a premium decorative finish that reveals the natural stone within the concrete mix, combining a distinctive textured look with the same durability as any other concrete surface. SMM Concreting Landscaping installs it across Melbourne, with every job completed by our own crew.
Exposed aggregate concreting is a decorative finish where the top layer of cement paste is washed or ground away after pouring to reveal the natural stone aggregate mixed through the concrete.
The structural properties underneath are the same as any other concrete surface. The difference is entirely in the surface treatment, so exposed aggregate carries the same base preparation, reinforcement and mix requirements as plain or colour concrete.
What makes it distinctive is the texture it leaves behind. The exposed stone creates a naturally slip-resistant surface, and the stone type, size and colour used in the mix all affect the final look. We help you choose an aggregate suited to the property.
