Want to change the look of your kitchen floor? Tired of the old, or outdated tiles you have? Did you know that Impressive Restorations can overlay existing tile? You bet we can!

This job in Highland Lakes neighborhood in Edmond had just this dilemma. Existing white 12″ square tiles, with dark grout, made it difficult to keep this kitchen floor looking clean. In some areas tiles were cracked as well. The homeowners asked for a larger tile look, with a Tuscan theme to update their kitchen floor. The transformation is amazing. The kitchen opens out into many other rooms and it has changed the look, and feel of the area. These tones are much warmer and more welcoming than the previous white tiles. All waterproof and easy to clean with household chemicals.. you can even wax and buff if you like. Very durable, won’t crack if your kids drop a can on it, like tile could.

Cracked and Heaving Concrete Sections

This could be your driveway!

… IF you don’t attend to cracks, and seal your concrete from the weather. Impressive Restorations offers both services, Crack Repair, and Sealing.

Damage to concrete happens because water trickles in any void, and in freezing weather water expands to become ice. The ice widens existing cracks, and the cycle repeats itself to damage your concrete. Left unchecked cracks can lead to spalling and crumbling concrete. When it reaches a certain point, replacement becomes your only option. This is easier, and of course, cheaper to fix now rather than later.

Impressive Restorations uses an epoxy treatment for cracks before freezing weather drives your concrete apart.

If you have weeds/grass growing through your cracks, damage has already been done. We can clean these out, and in some cases actually use a grinder to open them up to accept an epoxy treatment to literally join the two sides permantly. We can pressure-wash your drive, and or walks, to thoroughly clean them. Then we seal with a water proof sealer, either solvent based, or water based. Or we can use a colored sealer if you prefer, in hundreds of color options. This water-proof layer will protect your concrete drive from freezing weather.

Additionally we offer decorative cementitious overlay design options to completely conceal those cracks and prevent further damage. See our website for more ideas!

Finally got time to post the Afters on our job in Chickasha. We do get asked often if we do “flat work” That basically means new concrete pours. Yep. You bet. Jorge has been doing that since highschool. He taught his family years ago just adding to our own property. So, yes, we have plenty of experience forming and finishing “regular” concrete. It’s just that we like to do the pretty stuff. The pictures are much cooler, that’s for sure.

So here are the afters, including the solid gray colored sealer used overall, and the real brick (as opposed to our faux brick- see examples here) we added to match the home. As always thanks for looking, and be on the lookout for our new coupon starting Sept. 1st!
