Resurfacing Concrete Steps in San Antonio
For this residential pool area, SUNDEK of San Antonio resurfaced the stairs to match the deck using Classic Texture, creating a cohesive look.When most of our clients think about resurfacing concrete, they think about large, sprawling spaces such as patios or driveways. However, concrete doesn’t have to be flat or expansive to benefit from resurfacing. Even a set of steps leading up to a home or business or to a backyard patio can receive a makeover with decorative concrete resurfacing. In fact, some of our clients are surprised when we tell them that their worn, cracked, or outdated concrete steps can be beautifully transformed—just like any large slab.

Concrete resurfacing is when a thin overlay is applied on top of an existing concrete surface (after the existing surface is prepared properly so it can receive the coating and support it). Overlays cover minor imperfections, restore strength, and provide a clean surface for decorative treatments.
Steps leading up to this back patio were resurfaced to match the patio above and below, creating a unified look. The color used here complements the white adobe exterior of the home.Resurfacing is more sustainable and cost-effective than tearing out and replacing old concrete. It also saves time, money, and the hassle that comes along with demolition jobs. Once the coating is applied, the new surface can receive texture, colors, and patterns to match or enhance the style of the surrounding features. It’s the perfect way to refresh aging steps without having to fully replace them.

Once your steps are resurfaced, it’s crucial to protect your investment with a high-quality concrete sealer. Sealers will protect your steps from everything ranging from stains to freeze-thaw cycles. Some sealers also serve to enhance the color of your decorative finish. Overall, a sealer gives your finished concrete a polished look while also extending their longevity.
