We stamped this driveway in Richmond Virginia in Henrico County. First we tore out the existing asphalt and then graded to four inches. The concrete is colored with a charcoal integral color. The release agent is a darker charcoal and of course the stamp is cobblestone. Finally we sealed it with a 30% solid solvent based sealer. We formed the far edge at a slightly higher elevation than the driveway to compensate for the homeowners flower bed.

This is a follow up to my blog from last month (Read it here) where I took a close up picture of the cobblestone patio. As you can see this is a two color stamp job. The secondary color is the color you can see in the crevices and indentations that the cobblestone stamp creates.

I like the stamps that we use, they have realistic textures and are top notch. There are a ton of stamps on the market. You could actually make them in your garage or back yard. With a little research on the internet you can get the “recipe” to make stamps. W use quality products in all of our stamp projects, from the color to the stamps and the sealers.

The old saying definitely applies here, “you get what you pay for.” Please give us a call for a free estimate.

I think this is a pretty good combination. We used the running bond brick as the border and the cobble in the field. Colors are Hayfield with a “brown” release. The brick matches the release color.

Cobble is kind of a busy pattern as is the brick, but the combination of the two breaks up the business. There are numerous patterns and colors to choose from. Sometimes it is very difficult to choose on your own. Give us a call, I would be more then happy to work with you on your design.
