Are you thinking of installing the much-raved option, the exposed aggregate driveways in Melbourne? Then you are moving in the right direction. These driveways are made of concrete, the texture and look are obtained by eliminating the top surface mortar of the poured concrete. It exposes the aggregate beneath the surface. The aggregates in the coarse form can either be natural or artificial. These aggregates can either be blend in the concrete or implanted on the surface.
The driveway that is achieved after this process is resistant to skid even in the rainy season. It prevents tripping and falling. It has the natural stubby texture which provides more traction than the regular concrete. Mostly contractors enhance the traction by changing the size of aggregate particles. Along with this, their shape and surface texture is also altered.
Exposed aggregate is immune to all types of weather as it is made of concrete. For increasing its longevity, homeowners should seal it every two years.
Driveways made from this exposed aggregate come in varieties of colour, shape, and sizes. It also allows for a customized creation. The cement locks the aggregate together in such a way that it gives a great aesthetic appeal. Professionals would be able to add one or two elements to add to the beauty of the already existing beauty.
