Exposed-aggregate concrete can almost be compared to a piece of granite or marble transformed
by polishing: A plain, unremarkable surface has been stripped away to reveal the exceptional beauty lying beneath. In the
case of concrete, that beauty is in the form of decorative aggregate, either natural or manufactured. The decorative process of exposing aggregate has been around since the early 1900s, well
before pattern stamping and decorative overlays became trendy. But this method is far from being ready for retirement. An
exposed-aggregate finish offers numerous advantages.
