Stamping the Concrete








After the second color was thrown out and spread onto the damp concrete, they laid rubber mats face down with a design onto the surface and tamped them down with a special tool to put the design in the concrete which makes it look like rock. There are two types of mats. One is a large square mat and goes on the interior of the decking and the other is a smaller rectangular one that goes around the edge of the decking.

This is the final step for today. Tomorrow they will seal the finish.
