I obtained quotes from several vendors mentioned in TOTV and selected Amy Newsom, 352.308.7410. She did a great job on our driveway, garage and lanai! Maybe she can email some pictures to you. You'll want to match colors with your house and landscaping. I'd trust her to make good selections without your being there.

The house is now cleaner - no more concrete dust. Easy to clean. She will do any design you want. We chose 12" tile look, complete with grout lines and subtle line variations/ color contrasts in the corners and on the edges. It was such a good job a guest actually thought it was tile!

Outside the irrigation water and rain puddles on the slab, where it used to soak into the concrete and dry up right away. This makes it slippery, so be careful. The water evaporates fairly quickly.

It needs to be clear coated every 2 years. You can do it or Amy will call you when it is time and she'll do it for you. The clear coat will bring back the colors, which look faded after a while. Gasoline and solvents will damage it.

Compared to brick pavers I believe this is the better option. Pavers look great, but they get oil stains and crack frequently.
