Concrete overlay was born out of the need to repair existing concrete surfaces that experience lot of wear and tear over time. It starts looking old, worn and unsightly, but replacing the entire concrete floor can turn out to be very expensive and time consuming.

Concrete overlay comes in as a handy and economical option to not just fill, patch and cover the surface defects on the concrete slab but also to impart a visually appealing element to the regular concrete. Indeed, a thin layer of concrete overlay can be used to add a decorative resurfacing element with varied colors, textures and designs that are long lasting and easy on the eye as well.
