Built for El Cajon homes.
El Cajon sits in a valley ringed by hills east of San Diego, and that bowl traps heat — it is reliably one of the warmer places in the county. Combined with a lot of mid-century housing, that means older concrete that has taken decades of real sun.
The good news is that the slabs themselves are typically sound. Concrete from this era around El Cajon rarely needs replacing; it needs the accumulated surface history taken off and a properly specified finish put back on.
The valley setting is the local factor worth knowing. Ringed by hills and set well back from the coast, El Cajon holds summer heat in a way the coastal cities do not, and its concrete has aged accordingly.

Microtopping & Concrete Overlays in El Cajon, questions
Is sixty-year-old concrete worth keeping?
Usually, yes. Mid-century concrete around El Cajon is generally sound — what has aged is the surface and whatever has been applied to it over the years. That is a resurfacing job, and it costs a fraction of replacement.
What patterns can I have?
From a basic knock-down texture through to flagstone, tile, brick and cobblestone. We offer Dexite, an overlay system built for exactly this, and the design goes on directly over the existing concrete.
How long does it last?
It is a cementitious overlay bonded to a properly prepared slab, so its life comes down to the prep underneath it — which is the part of the job we have spent fifty years getting right.
