How to Stamp Concrete by Biondo Cement

Brick, pavers, and cobbles look great, but since they form a surface of many interlocking pieces,they are susceptible to frost-heave and other changes in the underlying surface. This can pose a problem if nottaken care of. Reinforcing rods within the stamped concrete help to tie the pavement together and strengthen it. Also, bricks, pavers, cobbles,etc. allow for weeds to grow up through the cracks and are a nuisance to maintain. Since stamped concrete is a solid, continuoussurface, nothing can grow up through the "cracks." These "cracks" in the stamped concrete are actually saw cuts that only are cut an inch and a half down from the surface. These are used to prevent the real "cracks" in your cement.
