Cameron Concrete Design, Inc.

Concrete has become the new material of choice for designers and homeowners across the United States. Stained concrete floors are popping up in retail stores, trendy restaurants, offices, and homes everywhere. A concrete floor offers numerous options for interior rooms including nearly limitless designs, colors, and even health benefits.

One of the most common places you' ll see decorative concrete these days is under your feet. Whether it's acid-stained, overlays, microtoppings, radiant floors, or a unique personal floor, concrete floors offer a range unlike any other material. Cement flooring no longer has to be gray and boring. Now coloring concrete, or applying textures, patterns, saw cuts, etc., can bring new life to this traditional substrate. Concrete can be so uniquely designed or so naturally colored that it blends seamlessly with other elements in a room--oftentimes, you don't even realize it's a concrete floor you're standing on!

Many are welcoming, embracing, and anxiously pursuing concrete floors for their own home projects. All it typically takes is one look whether its in a magazine, on a home tour, a television show, or in someone's home and you're hooked.

Why concrete is a popular material for cement floors:

• It enhances the integrity of architects designs.
• They are easy to maintain.
• Its easy to change, especially if you sell your home; the next owner can place carpet or wood on top of the concrete slab.
• They are great in regions with a lot of sand or snow.
• They are a good alternative to carpet if you have allergies.
