Decograde Concrete Resurfacing resurfaces patios in Revesby. The patio is where the family eats, relaxes and entertains, so a worn or stained slab gets noticed fast. Call (02) 9090 4131 and tell us about yours.
Revesby patios and extensions
Revesby’s older houses began as modest fibro bungalows, according to the suburb’s Wikipedia entry, and many have since been extended or rebuilt. A patio slab on an extended house can join old concrete to newer pours, with joins and level changes that need care. We look at each join before we quote.
Patio edges, thresholds and the wall
The edge, the door threshold and the wall base all need masking. We check that water still runs away from the house after resurfacing. If it holds water against a wall, the estimate says so.

Heat, shade and furniture
Sunny patios get hot underfoot, and lighter colours stay cooler. Shaded ones stay damp and grow algae. Furniture and pots leave rings. We suggest a colour and texture to suit how you use the space.
Pictures of the whole patio and its worst crack are the best start. Send them, or call (02) 9090 4131.
What comes off first
Old paint and sealer must come off completely, because a new layer will not bond to them. Failed patches are cut back and redone. Removing old coatings is often the largest line in the estimate, and we show you what we find.
Resurface, tile over or re-pour
Resurfacing keeps the slab and changes its face. Tiling over adds height and cost and needs a flat, sound base. Re-pouring suits a failed slab. We tell you which fits yours.
A patio job from start to finish
We mask walls and thresholds, clean and etch the slab, repair cracks and apply the layer in dry weather. The sealer follows. A patio is usually out of use for a few days, and we give you the exact times for the product we choose.

Choosing a finish for the space
A fine to medium texture suits most patios. If the patio leads to a pool, we look at grip more closely. We bring samples and agree the finish before booking.
See the patio resurfacing page and the patio cost guide.
Colour and heat on a Revesby patio
In direct sun a pale patio stays cooler underfoot, while a dark one masks dirt. Most households settle on a mid-tone. Samples come with us so you can test them outdoors beside the house and the existing paving.

Questions to ask about a patio job
Three questions worth asking: can the patio be resurfaced up to the wall, how long will it be out of use, and will it be slippery when wet? The estimate answers each in writing and explains how a textured, sealed surface compares with the old one.
If the house has been extended, a patio may sit on a slab poured at a different time from the house. We look for changes in level and for cracks along the line where the two meet. Where we find movement, we say so before you spend anything, and we tell you how the join will be handled.
Answers to common questions
Can you resurface across the join between old and new concrete?
Yes, if the join is stable. We check for movement and keep a control joint where the two meet, so the surface does not crack along it.
What if my patio is under a roof?
A covered patio cures evenly, and we plan around posts and walls. We tell you how long to keep furniture off.
Will the surface be slippery when wet?
We give it a texture and seal it. If the patio is shaded or leads to a pool, we adjust the texture.
Do you work on weekends?
Ask when you ring. We agree days that suit you and the weather, and we put the schedule in writing.
Can a patio be resurfaced if the house was extended?
Usually, once we have checked how the old and new slab meet. A join that has moved needs attention first, and we explain what that involves.
