Our 5-Step Approach to Exposed Aggregate Concrete in Columbus, OH
1. Site Protection and Preparation
We install protective plywood pathways and employ laser-guided grading for optimal drainage, then carefully remove existing materials and cut sod to prevent organic decomposition.
2. Foundation Establishment
We install a proper gravel base for structural support, establish precise layout specifications, and ensure all measurements align with your design vision.
3. Concrete Placement
We pour high-quality concrete and apply specialized retardant spray to the entire surface, which prevents the top layer from hardening while everything underneath cures properly.
4. Professional Exposure Process
We return the following day and power wash the treated surface, revealing the beautiful decorative aggregate stones underneath.
5. Final Finishing
We apply premium sealer to complete your stunning surface that will provide years of beautiful, durable service.
+ How long does exposed aggregate installation take?
Most projects span two to three days. Day one involves site preparation and excavation. Day two includes concrete placement and retardant application. Day three focuses on power washing, aggregate exposure, and sealer application.
+ Can you work with my specific design preferences?
Absolutely. We’ll guide you through the entire process to ensure your vision becomes reality, offering a second consultation after contract signing for complete design finalization.
+ When can I use my new exposed aggregate concrete patio in Columbus, OH?
You can walk on the surface the day after installation. For patios, we recommend waiting one week before placing furniture to allow complete surface curing and prevent potential marking.
+ Can exposed aggregate be used for driveways and walkways?
Absolutely. Exposed aggregate is incredibly durable and versatile—you can use it for everything from exposed aggregate concrete walkways in Columbus to driveway installations.

Great communication throughout the project. The owner will discuss the scope of work, the quote, handle communications, and lead the crew on-site. The workmanship is great, completed in a timely manner, and they go at length to protect the existing landscape.

Joe and his team did an excellent job! Joe spent time walking me through the whole process before I even signed a contract. He made sure I understood, had great communication leading up to the project, and left my yard just how they found it. I highly recommend his team!

Ultimately did not use the service but Joe was exceptional and outlined the entire project. We will use him for a future project. Personal challenges interfered with what we wanted to do. I would suggest Genco for your needs. Thanks Joe for your help, looking forward to your help on our next project!

I worked with Joe and his crew to replace my asphalt driveway for a concrete driveway. They far exceeded EVERY expectation in EVERY way. They were fast, efficient, professional, thorough, honest, and very clean throughout the entire process. I will proudly give them 5 out of 5 stars every day of the week.
I will highly recommend them to anyone with concrete needs.
Great job, guys! Thank you for all of your hard work!

Highly recommended. Great communication as to start date, was flexible and fair with adjustments to the original scope/project. Showed up on time, crew was courteous, and left minimal damage to yard. Even hauled materials from the road of our long driveway to avoid damaging driveway with gravel and concrete. Thanks Joe and team

I have worked with several contractors over the years some good, some meh, some downright bad. Only a few have been truly great. Genco is one of the few. They were great! From start to finish. Came out to the site, did a thorough evaluation of the situation, provided us with a VERY reasonable quote. Left us with various marketing materials, AND contract examples, liability insurance information, workers comp info. etc. Perfect
Contacted us a week before the schedule date to confirm things. Told us about potential delays (weather). Showed up on schedule day, at the scheduled time to start prep-work. Great job. No hassles.
One of the things I value most in any contracted work, communication. Genco excelled. Straight forward, honest and direct.
The quality of work, outstanding. Finish work, relief cuts etc. All done to code,
Highly recommend Genco and Joe. We will work with them again on future projects!
Thank you,
