Aggregate in Lakeside, CA.
Aggregate for Lakeside homes, done by an experienced San Diego County concrete crew. Exposed aggregate gives you a textured, slip-resistant, character-rich surface that ages better than smooth concrete and looks coastal-California right. The work is 80 percent in the wash window, too early and you wash out cement paste, too late and you fight to expose the stone..
Why is aggregate different in East County San Diego?
East County dust settles into exposed aggregate texture and turns it gray. Sealing every 3 years is what keeps the original look, and most homeowners forget after year one.
