Exposed Aggregate Sealing in Stratford
Exposed aggregate driveways and patios are popular in Stratford, and unsealed ones lose stones every spring. TriCity seals Stratford aggregate with a solvent-based product that locks the stones in and deepens the natural colour, in matte or semi-gloss.
What's included
How aggregate is different
Exposed aggregate concrete has a beautiful textured look — but without sealing, those embedded stones lose their colour and the concrete becomes vulnerable to spalling and staining. Our exposed aggregate sealing service uses a high-solids, penetrating sealer that saturates the stone and concrete matrix, bringing out the natural colours and providing durable protection from the elements.
Cleaning between the stones
Pressure washing lifts the dirt that collects around every pebble and dulls the colour.
Loose stone check
We identify loose aggregate before sealing and tell you what can be locked in.
Heavier coverage
Aggregate drinks more sealer than a flat surface. We apply accordingly so the finish is even.
Sprayed and back-rolled
Rolling works the sealer down around each stone instead of leaving it on the tops.
Matte or semi-gloss
Both deepen stone colour. Semi-gloss gives the wet-river-rock look; matte keeps it natural.
Recommended finish
Matte
Matte keeps exposed aggregate looking natural while deepening the stone colour. Semi-gloss gives the wet look some clients prefer.

FAQ
Exposed Aggregate Sealing in Stratford
Still wondering about something? Email us, or use the form and we will get back to you within 4 business hours.
[email protected]How much does exposed aggregate sealing cost in Stratford?
Every quote is per property, based on square footage, the type of concrete and whether it was sealed before. The site assessment in Stratford is free and the written quote includes the 5-year warranty terms.
Can sealing stop stones from coming loose?
It locks in stones that are still bonded and stops the freeze-thaw cycle that loosens more. Stones already missing can't be replaced by sealing alone.
Which finish is best for exposed aggregate?
Matte for a natural look, semi-gloss for a wet-stone look. Both use the same solvent-based product.
Does aggregate need more sealer?
Yes, because of the extra surface area. We quote for the right coverage rather than stretching a coat too thin.
Do you charge extra to come to Stratford?
No. Stratford is inside our regular service area and there is never a travel charge.
