would like to have my driveway painted. Any recomendations

Don't use watercolors...

Don't. Drive through a few 10 year old villages and see how faded and dated they get. Over the years painters have come and gone so warranties aren't worth much to fix up all that goes wrong.
There are several old threads on this topic. Look them up and you will learn alot.

We did (as mentioned in previous threads) only because our driveway had an abundance of permanent mottled areas that were inherent in the concrete.
Living in a CYV, this was the only option permitted to us.

After much research, much interviewing and many visits to many homes that had it done, we elected to use Florida Deck. (352-561-0612) To my discerning eye, theirs was the product, workmanship and finish I wanted.

It has been almost two years and our driveway gets much use. We have had our house washed as well.

Our driveway looks like it was done yesterday. I am MORE than satisfied with the result.

BUT, not all products, applications or companies are equal. Price is not a reliable indicator of quality. We took 6 months to choose the company for us.
I am glad we didn't jump into it.

Amy Newsom is really great. 352-308-7410 and you will find lots of good things about her on TOTV here. She has done our garage, driveway, front walk, front lanai and back lanai. I have referred her to lots of people and always got positive feed back about her and her work.

I agree with the previous poster regarding Florida Deck. We have a CYV and had our driveway painted by them a year ago and they did a great job and the driveway looks great. I have an older truck that drips some fluids and a little spray cleaner and a paper towel and no more oil stains.

DON"T PAINT !!!!!!! Big mistake..... The best application is the liquid concrete. Florida Deck does an outstanding job.. I suggest you do a little tour and look at the liquid concrete applications.

Amy Newsome, can't say enough about her work, Great person and wonderful work, could not be more pleased. Just had all the concrete done. She recommends that it be resealed every 2 years to keep it looking new. I hired her through the recommendations on this blog.
