Aggregate in Vista, CA.
Aggregate for Vista homes, done by an experienced San Diego County concrete crew. 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 North County Inland San Diego?
Inland heat is hard on dark aggregate driveways, they soak up summer sun and burn bare feet. We push lighter aggregate blends in Escondido and Poway for that reason.
