Stamped concrete has become the most popular decorative surface treatment for concrete walkways. And for good reason: Your pattern options are nearly unlimited, ranging from traditional materials such as brick, slate or flagstone, to specialized patterns such as wood planking and nature-inspired botanical or wildlife motifs. Colors and patterns for stamped concrete can be chosen to blend with other hardscaping elements around your home. You can also intermingle stamped concrete with other decorative concrete treatments, such as exposed aggregate finishes and chemical staining.
