Aggregate in Potrero, CA.
Aggregate for Potrero homes, done by licensed San Diego County technicians. Exposed aggregate gives you a textured, slip-resistant, character-rich surface that ages better than smooth concrete and looks coastal-California right. The work is 80 percent in the wash window — too early and you wash out cement paste, too late and you fight to expose the stone..
Why is aggregate different in Backcountry San Diego?
