Acid Stained Concrete

Acid stained concrete is one of the most affordable and popular concrete flooring options for homes and businesses. If you want to add natural beauty to your concrete surfaces, acid staining will enhance their appearance with variegated colors found in nature. Think subtle tans and grays, rich browns and terra cottas, and soft aquamarines. Pittsburgh Epoxy Flooring is your number one choice for acid stained concrete floors in Pittsburgh and the surrounding areas. We bring superior craftsmanship and customer service to every job we do.

Acid-etched staining produces deep, rich colors that can’t be obtained with paint or other finishes. Every acid stained floor is unique. When the stain permeates the concrete to infuse it with color, the finished tones and patterns will vary depending on the concrete’s characteristics. Cracks and textured areas will still be visible, but they will be saturated with the stain color of your choice. This is a solid flooring solution to make your indoor or outdoor concrete stand out from the rest.

Acid stains work by permeating the concrete’s surface and causing a chemical reaction with its lime content. The acid in the stain lightly etches the surface, creating more pathways for the colored metallic salts to soak in. The results are permanent, vibrant, and impervious to chipping, flaking, or fading.

Why Choose Acid Stained Concrete?

With the amount of effort required to keep carpet clean and the cost and hassle of maintaining wood floors, it’s no wonder more home and business owners are looking for better flooring solutions. Here are some of the qualities that make acid stained flooring such a popular choice:

You get gorgeous results

Staining concrete is a lot like staining wood. You still see the unique textures underneath the stain, but they are enhanced by the translucent color applied to them. Stained concrete floors are beautiful and interesting additions to any home or business

It’s affordable

This is one of the least expensive flooring types available. You don’t have to pay for extra flooring materials because you’re using your concrete subflooring as your floor. There are no costs associated with its upkeep beyond simple cleaning supplies.

It’s easy to maintain

Spills and dirt are easy to remove from acid stained concrete surfaces. As long as you keep it swept, it will always look clean and well-preserved.

It’s tough and resilient

Water and moisture won’t faze this type of flooring. Neither will heavy use or normal wear and tear. It’s a great choice for households with children or pets.

It matches most color palettes

Because acid staining produces natural, neutral colors, you can find a shade to match any interior or exterior.
