The reason why we shall stamp the concrete instead of just installing the concrete paver is because of its undoubted advantages since it can be moulded to the existing concrete floor either by recasting an additional layer or just rework the whole concrete. Of course, the concrete can be cast-in-situ or precast, but the precast one will be difficult to do the layering since it has to do with the wet works since the imprint mould needs to be placed on non-dry concrete substrate. Additionally, concrete stamping does make more possibilities too when it comes to pattern availabilities, colours options, shapes and sizes. It is also able to cater for small quantities and sizes compared to clay as well as concrete pavers. Furthermore, stamping the concrete is also having a shorter lead time as compared to the custom order-to-make kind of arrangement.

A contractor is also required to be a specialist for the installation of concrete imprinting works so customers can avoid appointing the wrong one for their invaluable properties and projects. Hacking to redo the concreting job could be a challenging task since it involves more than just cost of financial, it is also due to project timeline delays and subsequent stresses derived from there. For example, the customer has to wait for the concrete to cure again even though recast with concrete imprinted on top of it. Once it is dried, the pattern of incomplete and imperfect might cause issues if no proper monitoring procedures are being conducted by a project team at the site. In this sense, laying the concrete paver is then easier and quicker to modify in case any removal for reinstatement is needed.
The reason why concrete imprint is a good substitute to concrete paver is that it takes a lower cost to conduct installation services too as compared to paving using the precast concrete floor paver. Clay paver is on the other hand also another challenge when coming to logistics as well as loading to unloading. Imprinted concrete has one dangerous disadvantage which its patterns might not be long-lasting, either fades in the textures or the colours. The concrete paver might be having lesser risks to be deteriorating in the gap line and thicker colour tones when they are being exposed to the sun's ultraviolet (UV), water, air to other substances. Anyhow, concrete paver and imprinted concrete are durable in terms of strength since concrete by its nature is having a high standard of strength.

In order to make requirements to be met, the general contractor will also complete other scopes of your landscaping or walkway path if needed. For instance, they might include gazebo fabrication as well as hydroseeding, fountain, hardscape, nursery, gabion, fencing or many more if they are garden specialists. Although garden requires more experienced contractors to conduct a site assessment, materials advice and installation processes. Concurrently, many owners are encouraged to do their comparison when all these costings come into concern because specialists might be charging higher as in their undoubtedly quality due to experience, raw material usage and manpower's price.
Printing on the concrete is a good idea when you are looking to furnish your existing dull bare concrete flooring that has nothing but only grey or most of them are already in a deteriorated condition that not even presentable when you have prestigious visitors to your office, factory or even home. Cleaning a stamped concrete floor is also easier than many other outdoor floorings, but it is definitely cannot be taken with the intention to compare with indoor floor systems since outdoor one is meant to be rougher to create the gripping force for safety purposes. There are more than this reason for outdoor flooring to have greater general surfaces than interior ones because exterior exposes more toward harsh environment such as sunlight's ultraviolet (UV), acid rain, dust, dirt, chemical, impacts from traffic to heavy load (both dynamic and static). From human's footwear to vehicle's wheels, we need more fiction regardless of wet or dry condition to make sure it would not cause accidents.

On the other side of the story for its drawback, concrete imprint requires speciality to do, and it will also have the probability of unable to achieve the ideal levelling as compared to the installation of concrete paver since the precast paver either using concrete or clay are having a high level of precision control by quality check processes as well as strict machinery operated basis. It is not possible to get a general working team to lay concrete imprint but paving using precast type is usually can be carried on by just trainee of the contractor, the entry-level executive can do a good job if he is serious in his work. Nevertheless, many paver contractors will be appointed by their principals as installers so both can be secured in quality delivery and their reputation can be taken care of too. in order to be a qualified dealer or installer of a certain brand, it works out to be similar to a chemical (specifically, waterproofing) applicator, must go through intensive product training, briefing, hands-on and other requirements in their manpower and experiences.
