Concrete care overview.

At Storaci Cement, we understand that every home improvement project is an investment, which is why we always recommend applying a high-quality concrete sealer to your newly poured surface. Using the right commercial-grade sealant ensures longevity, protects against stains, and shields your concrete from Chicago’s harsh weather conditions, including the damaging effects of road salt during winter. Proper sealing also helps the concrete cure to its full strength, preserving its appearance and durability for years to come. Given the rising cost of concrete, sealing is a cost-effective way to extend the life of your project.
Our team works with the industry’s best sealers and is happy to provide expert recommendations to help you protect your investment. When applying a sealant, it’s crucial that the concrete is completely dry before application and given ample time to set before exposure to moisture. A thin, even coat applied with a 3/8 nap roller works best, and following your saw-cut patterns ensures full coverage while preventing over-application.
At Storaci Cement, we take pride in delivering high-quality concrete work that lasts, and we’re always here to guide you through the best practices to maintain your surfaces for the long run.

Stamped Concrete Care.

Stamped concrete needs a fresh coat of sealer every 2-3 years to maintain its vibrant color and protect the finish from wear and tear. At Storaci Cement, we use industry-leading sealers to ensure your concrete surfaces stay beautiful and durable for decades. Your concrete is a major investment, and keeping it well-maintained enhances your home’s curb appeal and value. One of the most common mistakes homeowners make is over-applying sealer, which causes buildup, resulting in a cloudy or milky appearance that eventually turns white. The key is to apply thin coats and allow the previous layer to wear away naturally before re-sealing. With the right maintenance, your stamped concrete will continue to look fresh and polished for years to come. 

Proper application of concrete sealant is crucial to ensuring durability and long-lasting protection. Before applying the sealer, the concrete must be completely dry—any moisture can prevent proper adhesion. After installation, allow ample drying time before exposing the surface to water. When applying the sealant, use a thin, even coat rather than overloading the surface. A 3/8” or ½” nap roller works best for smooth coverage. Working in small sections ensures precision and prevents pooling or streaking. At Storaci Cement, we recommend using saw-cut patterns as a guide to cover every inch of the project without over-application. This method guarantees a professional finish, enhancing both the look and longevity of your concrete.
