Concrete Staining

Concrete staining is one of the most effective ways to transform plain concrete into a finished, custom surface. Whether you’re refreshing an existing slab or upgrading a new space, the right stain can add depth, color, and character that lasts.

At MDRN Concrete Specialties, we provide professional concrete staining services across Northern Utah, including interior and exterior applications tailored to your space and conditions.

Acid Stains

Acid stains use a chemical reaction to create rich, natural color variations within the concrete. The result is a unique, marbled look with earthy tones that develop directly from the surface. Because each slab reacts differently, no two floors will look exactly the same.

Water-based Stains

Water-based stains offer more control over color and provide a wider range of tones than acid stains. They create a more consistent, even finish while still enhancing the natural texture of the concrete. This makes them a great option for both interior and exterior projects where a specific color is desired.

Dye Stains

Concrete dyes use ultra-fine pigments to penetrate the surface and deliver bold, modern color. They produce a clean, uniform appearance that works especially well in contemporary interior spaces. Because dyes are not UV stable, they are best suited for indoor applications only.

Color Refresh & Enchancements

If your concrete is already stained but has faded over time, a color refresh can restore its original look. This process enhances existing tones and can add subtle depth without starting from scratch. It’s a cost-effective way to bring new life to worn or dull concrete surfaces.

PROCESS

SURFACE
PREPARATION

The concrete surface is mechanically ground to remove contaminants and open the pores for proper adhesion. This step ensures the coating system bonds effectively and performs long-term.

APPLICATION OF
STAIN OR DYE

The selected stain or dye is applied using controlled techniques to achieve the desired color and finish. Product selection and application method are tailored to the specific substrate and project conditions.

SEALING AND
PROTECTION

A protective sealer is applied to lock in color and enhance durability. This final layer provides resistance to moisture, wear, and environmental exposure while extending the lifespan of the surface.
