Proven Decorative Concrete Systems in Virginia

When you’re investing in decorative concrete, you don’t just want a beautiful surface—you want a solution that has been tested, proven, and trusted to perform. At Decorative Concrete of Virginia, we’ve spent more than two decades perfecting our craft and refining our systems to deliver results that last.

From stamped concrete patios to epoxy garage floors, polished concrete, and overlays, our approach is built on proven systems that combine industry-leading products, certified installation techniques, and ongoing maintenance support. The result? Decorative concrete solutions that consistently exceed expectations for both homeowners and businesses across Lynchburg, Roanoke, Charlottesville, Richmond, and Central Virginia.

What Do We Mean by “Proven Systems”?

A “system” in decorative concrete is more than just concrete—it’s the process. Success comes from using the right preparation methods, the right products, and the right techniques at every stage.

Our proven systems include:

Surface preparation – repairing cracks, grinding, and cleaning to ensure a strong bond.
Professional-grade materials – epoxies, overlays, stains, and sealers that have been tested for durability.
Certified installation methods – applying products at the right thickness, timing, and curing process.
Protective sealing & finishing – adding layers of defense against impact, stains, and weather.
Maintenance guidance – empowering customers to extend the life of their investment.

By following these steps consistently, we ensure that every project is completed to the same high standard—whether it’s a small residential patio or a 50,000-square-foot polished concrete floor for Virginia Tech.

Why Proven Systems Matter

Not all decorative concrete is installed the same way. Some contractors cut corners or use cheap products that fail prematurely. DIY kits often promise professional results but rarely deliver long-term durability.

Our proven systems protect customers from:

Peeling epoxy coatings caused by poor surface prep
Uneven stains and blotchy finishes from improper application
Cracks and lifting overlays due to low-quality bonding agents
Premature fading and wear from inadequate sealing

By relying on methods we’ve tested over 20+ years of real-world projects, we deliver decorative concrete that’s as reliable as it is beautiful.

Applications of Our Proven Systems

Our approach works across a wide range of decorative concrete solutions:

Epoxy & Polyaspartic Garage Floors

Our multi-layer epoxy flooring systems provide proven impact resistance, chemical protection, and long-lasting performance. These are the same systems trusted in industrial and commercial facilities, adapted for residential garages and basements.

Polished Concrete

Using a combination of densifiers, grinding equipment, and sealers, our polished concrete systems deliver a glossy, low-maintenance finish proven to withstand heavy foot traffic in retail stores, schools, and offices.

Stamped & Overlaid Concrete

Our stamped concrete systems have been perfected over decades to create natural-looking stone, brick, and wood patterns that resist cracking and weather damage. With overlays, our systems breathe new life into existing concrete, providing a proven method of renewal without full replacement.

Stained Concrete

Our acid stain and dye systems create vibrant, lasting color when applied with the right prep and sealing. Unlike quick DIY stains that fade quickly, our proven methods ensure rich, consistent results indoors or outdoors.

Who We Are

OUR STORY

In 2001, a family vacation changed everything. While away, our dad—then a successful home builder—spotted a crew installing a decorative concrete overlay. Intrigued, he walked over, asked questions, and even jotted down the name from the bag of materials they were using. A few weeks later, we were on a plane to Florida for hands-on training.

What began as a side project soon became a passion. Our eye for quality and craftsmanship, paired with our growing expertise, transformed decorative concrete of virginia from a part time hustle into our full-time calling.

In 2010, our good friend Landon—who had been running his own landscaping business—partnered with us. Together, we expanded into polished concrete and commercial coatings, adding even more ways to bring beauty and durability to floors across Virginia.

Today, Decorative Concrete of Virginia is still family-owned and built on the same principles that started it all: hard work, quality craftsmanship, and treating every project like it’s for our own home.

It started with a spark of curiosity… and grew into a legacy of concrete artistry.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING

Overall experience was great.
Tim went the extra mile to ensure that the coating would be compatible with my horrible concrete floor that suffered from spalling in the past. Used extra layer of vapor barrier to ensure good results. The team that came out was top notch as well, left the job site clean and were very friendly. I would definitely recommend them to do your floor project.

Jeff F.

The folks at Decorative Concrete of Virginia are the absolute best at what they do! We are a repeat customer and I would not hesitate to hire them again. Our garage floor is now gorgeous! The team that worked on our floor was prompt, polite and really knew what they were doing. From the first contact with Colton to the finished product was wonderful.

Berry Q.

Decorative Concrete showed up on time, were very professional, and highly competent! We had them apply polyaspartic coatings to both our garage floor and the unfinished area of our basement. The floors now look terrific! Our builder was so impressed with their work that he was going to contract with them for future homes he builds. We would recommend them unhesitatingly!
