Exterior Concrete Staining in San Bernardino

Built for San Bernardino homes.

San Bernardino carries some of the oldest housing stock in the Inland Empire and sits directly below the mountains, which gives it a wider temperature range than the valley floor cities south of it. Older concrete and bigger seasonal swings are the two things that shape the work here.

There is also a great deal of commercial and institutional work in San Bernardino: warehouse floors, school and municipal facilities, and courts. Court coating removal is where this company started, and this county keeps us in it.

The foothill neighborhoods sit high enough to see genuinely cold nights in winter against very hot summer days. Concrete moves with that range, and older concrete that has been moving through it for sixty or seventy years shows cracking that younger slabs elsewhere do not.

San Bernardino FAQs

Exterior Concrete Staining in San Bernardino, questions

Do you do school and municipal court work here?

Yes. Court coating removal is the work this company started on in 1976, and we have stripped thousands of courts since. Schools, clubs and municipal facilities across San Bernardino County are regular clients, and we phase around seasons and school calendars.

Is staining the same as painting the concrete?

No. Paint and most coatings form a film on the surface, and a film on exterior concrete is what eventually peels. Stain colors the concrete itself, which is why it weathers rather than flaking.

Will it hide the stains and discoloration already there?

Usually, yes — a variegated stain is very good at absorbing existing blotches into the pattern. On badly damaged concrete an overlay may be the better answer, and we will say so when we look at it.
