Decograde Concrete Resurfacing offers exposed aggregate resurfacing in Revesby: a pebble-mix layer over the concrete you already have, giving the look of small stones set in cement with no demolition. Call (02) 9090 4131 to see samples.
A stone-look finish for older Revesby homes
Revesby grew from post-war fibro bungalows, according to the suburb’s Wikipedia entry, and many have been rebuilt or renovated. A stone-look drive or entry can lift a renovated front without new concrete. The finish is thicker than a spray coat and is worked while workable, then finished and sealed.
Levels at garage doors and gates
A pebble layer raises the surface slightly. At garage doors, gates and thresholds we measure first and tell you exactly where the finished level will land.
Still weighing your options? Call (02) 9090 4131 for a straight answer.
Choosing the stone
Fine neutral stone suits a modern house, and larger mixed stone suits a garden path or long drive. We use sample boards that you look at in daylight, and we suggest a mix after seeing your house.
Considering aggregate but worried about cost? Photos and a rough size let us give you both prices. Call (02) 9090 4131.
How the layer is applied
The slab is cleaned, repaired and primed. The pebble mix is applied and finished while workable, then sealed once it has cured. It is done in stages and the weather matters, so we choose the days with care and give you a schedule.
Upkeep of a stone-look surface
Wash it regularly and brush off any loose pebbles in the first weeks. Moss and dirt collect in the texture, so shaded areas need more care. A reseal when the sheen fades keeps it fresh.
Where aggregate sits on cost and look
Exposed aggregate costs more than plain spray-on and gives a textured, grippy, stone-look result. A spray-on finish with a stencil border can come close for less. We give both options in writing.

When it is the wrong choice
A small shaded courtyard that holds moss, a slab that is still moving or a surface that must stay smooth all point elsewhere. We tell you if yours is one of those.
The exposed aggregate resurfacing page explains the process, and the exposed aggregate cost guide explains the price.
Comparing aggregate quotes fairly
Set two quotes side by side and check the stone mix, the thickness and the stages, the sealer and when it needs recoating, and how cracks are handled. Gaps in a quote make a comparison unreliable, and we will gladly go through yours with you.

Edges, drains and fixtures
Ask how the surface is finished at edges and around drains, where careless work shows first. Neat edges and clean lines around fixtures are a good sign in any aggregate job, and we show you a close-up photo of each.
A renovated front often gets a new driveway or entry as the finishing touch, and an exposed aggregate surface gives a distinct, textured look. We bring photos of finished surfaces and sample boards so you can see the stone in the hand, not only on a screen. Ask us for the sample sizes before the visit and we will bring the ones that suit your house.
Answers to common questions
Will it suit a renovated front of house?
Often, yes. We look at the colours of the roof, render and fences and suggest a stone mix. The sample board lets you check it against the house.
Does it make the driveway higher?
Slightly. We check levels at the garage door and gate, and we tell you where the surface will sit before we start.
Can it go over cracks?
Only once cracks are repaired and the slab is stable. A crack that keeps moving will show through.
How do I clean it?
Sweep, then wash with water and a mild cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals, and reseal when the sheen fades.
Can I see samples before deciding?
Yes. We bring sample boards in a range of stone sizes and colours, and you look at them outside in daylight next to your house.
