Project Overview

A rich, red stamped brick-pattern border elegantly frames this new concrete driveway in Tacoma, seamlessly integrating the installation with the home's classic brick facade. The main surfaces feature a clean, light gray broomed finish, providing a durable, high-traction surface that contrasts beautifully with the textured border. This design detail is carried through to a matching stamped inlay at the garage entrance. Ascending towards the home, a series of concrete steps and custom-poured wall caps present a darker, sand-like finish, adding visual depth and complementing the brick retaining walls they sit upon. The project's longevity is ensured by precisely placed saw-cut control joints and a channel drain at the base of the drive to manage water runoff effectively.

Things to Know

01

How should I maintain a broomed finish driveway with a stamped border to handle heavy vehicle traffic?

Pressure wash on low setting to remove dirt and debris. Clean oil spills immediately to prevent staining. Reseal every 2-3 years to protect the broomed texture and stamped border from wear, UV rays, and moisture.

02

What are the traction advantages of a broomed finish for a sloped concrete driveway?

Broomed finish grooves create high traction by channeling water away and providing excellent grip for pedestrians and vehicles. This significantly improves safety on sloped or wet surfaces.
