| - I had sharp contracting out to restore my stamped concrete patio deck around the pool and under the awning in the backyard. They go by Sharp contracting and also HardscapeRestore or RestoreYourHardscaping.com which redirects you to sharp contracting. They had a nice advertisement in the Home Concepts home improvement remodeling guide that is mailed to homeowners. When the individual came out, he recommended resurfacing the stamped concrete, which i found out after the fact, they just painted the stamped concrete and put a sealer on top. The individual who came out said it would make it look like granite and showed me some before and after photos, which looked great. After they coated the surface within a month, i noticed the coating started to look chalky and dry, losing color. After several months, I had areas that were peeling and it was completely faded and looked awful. For the price and the coating only lasting a couple of months at best, I would NOT recommend this painting/coating process. I had to have another company come out, Allied Outdoor Solutions and they had to grind off all of the coating, put on their carvestone product, color it and seal it, which looks great. I will definitely do my homework and read reviews next time I consider any new projects for home improvement.
