Novato Project & Seeded Concrete Finishes

We just finished pouring a concrete walkway and pad for a project in Novato. The concrete finish we used we a seeded aggregate. There are several different options for seeded aggregate, both in terms of the stone that is seeded, and the size of the stone seeded.

Example of stone on pathway we just completed- 3/4" Red River aggregate

Seeding in progress- stones are broadcast and then embedded into the surface of the concrete. The concrete is washed away to reveal the packed stones at the surface.

Seeding completed- 3/8" smaller Pami Pebble aggregate

Example of another aggregate stone- Salmon 3/4"
