These guys have a great handle on all the nick nack paddy wacks you’d ever need for your yard, garden, and home.  Not to mention cool plants and shrubs.  Big hi to all our buddies there! So, we ground and stained the floor with very subtle water based dyes and sealers.  Seriously.

Solution:

grind concrete, densify, and maintain.  Notice the sick grinding veins in the hard trowelled floor?  Yeah, looks good

We cranked out this floor early this month.  This is a very easy floor to maintain.  Notice the natural stone look and chiseled and grouted saw cuts nice

we finally raised the stairs we were working on last winter!!  2nd-3rd floor stairs are in, 1st-2nd go in on Monday.  Once the steps are in, the walls go up, and we pour the floors- and have more fun!

With the success of their first bistro at the ball diamond, the newer, larger location at the stadium looked to be too good to be true.  The new location for the Hu’s asian bistro is ellice and king edward.  Here, we ground and detailed, stained and sealed the old floors- into works of art!  Our proudest achievement is the wicked water feature that greets you as you enter the vestibule.  In this space, we were lucky enough to be asked to decorate the space as we saw fit: asian themed benches, planters, and decor.  

**the columns in the water feature were done with nothing other than our carved vertical product we discovered this past summer

it was a blast!

at their newest location, we ground and stained the floor, did up a vestibule, made some furniture, and built a kick ass water feature!!  Pics to follow when open in a week?

This here was a super fun project we worked on over the winter, and completed this spring.  Check out the cool details on the columns and walls.  The drive is sandblasted and courtyard has acid staining and ground concrete as well.  Can you see the grass in the wall?…

This bookstore floor was the perfect location to create an old school floor which looks decades old.  With just the right amount of grind coupled with the mottling effects of acid stains, this floor makes even the worst of cracks look like they belong there.

here’s how we get our wax on…. This particular floor was ground and stained with a water based dye.  It shows good mottling and colour variation.  Yes, it is a true black as well.
