A new front redo started with all new concrete at 2379 Parkland Terrace in San Luis Obispo. A new set of landing steps and driveway – as well as walks. Brian and Brooke opted for a sandstone base color with terra cota and saltillo
red secondary colors. The nieghbors were impressed with the smooth progress and that we kept their street and adjacent areas Clean!! Very important to keep everyone smiling.

This project is at the top of centinela dr. in the Sea Ranch area. Getting the colors right took a little experimenting. – the owner wanted to avoid red tones. We were all quite please with the final result. Check those great ‘before and after’ shots.

    So Sam’s person, Carolyn, decided it was time for him to step up to the proverbial plate and make his mark or ‘marks’  with a Stampman first.At the appointed time, Sam availed himself and left his prints – as planned- on the slate patio he, Carolyn and Lulu share. Sam was a sport and rendered some really good prints of his busy doggie paws. Sam and Carolyn are happy with the results and I’m sure he’ll continue to look on his work with pride every day.

Diagonal saw cut squares on 4 foot centers were centered off the driveway entrance.We used a dyeing process to creat a 12 inch border around the entire driveway area in a slightly darker contrasting color. Some of our commotion riled a nieghbor , but we  made it work for all and completed it on schedule.

Originally installed in 2004, this floor has undergone repeated flooding and moisture problems. We were honored in being able to fix and beautify the floors before the artwork comes in. A truly beautiful place (789 W. Main street) , in the village of Cambria.

The owners wanted a warm space in the back, so we created a patio with a fire pit in a south western flair. We did everything you see, the walls, the stone work, the landscaping, as well as the stamped concrete of course. The owners and I had a lot of fun designing and planning the whole project, as well as making changes as it evolved.

A few years back a local concrete contractor installed this stamped concrete driveway. Great stamp work , but sadly the color work was lacking. After several sample colors were applied , the colors were found that tied into the owners house colors and the new paver patio being installed. Both base colors were enhanced with gray secondary colors that gave the patio and drive new dimension. It was a struggle at times, but we prevailed and the results are striking. El Viento is up in the Ventana development off James way , by the 4th street exit. This drive went from the ugliest in the neighborhood to a showplace. The owners and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
