Microtopping & Concrete Overlays in San Diego, done right.
Thin cementitious overlays that give old concrete a completely new surface, indoors or out. We work San Diego from the older coastal neighborhoods inland to the canyon-edge developments, with our own crew on every job — no subcontractors, no surprise charges, and one number to call from the first estimate to the finished concrete coating.
We apply microtopping & concrete overlays across San Diego and the surrounding area, including Chula Vista, El Cajon, Mira Mesa, Escondido.
What's included
- Applied directly over existing concrete — no demolition, no new slab
- Knock-down texture, flagstone, tile, brick, cobblestone and more
- Existing cracks worked into the pattern rather than left as a flaw
- Dexite overlay system
- Patios, pool decks, driveways, walkways and entries
- Costs less than removing and repouring the slab
Built for San Diego homes.
San Diego brings something none of our inland cities do: salt air. Coastal and near-coastal concrete lives with marine moisture and airborne salt, and both change what a coating has to cope with. Inland San Diego neighborhoods behave more like the valley cities we know well.
Further inland — Scripps Ranch, the eastern neighborhoods — the conditions ease back toward what we deal with every day, and the specification follows.
Marine air is the variable inland work does not have. Salt carried in on the air is corrosive, and persistent morning moisture from the marine layer means coastal slabs spend far more hours damp than an inland slab ever does. Coatings that would be perfectly happy in Wildomar can be under real pressure a mile from the water.

Microtopping & Concrete Overlays in San Diego, questions
Is moisture testing really necessary?
On a coastal slab, yes. Concrete that holds moisture will push a coating off from underneath no matter how well the surface was prepared, and there is no way to see that by looking. Testing first is far cheaper than recoating a failed floor.
Do you have to tear out my old concrete first?
Almost never. Outside concrete rarely goes bad — it just gets ugly. An overlay goes straight over what is there, which avoids all the damage and cost that comes with removing a slab.
What about the cracks in my patio?
We can work them into the design. Laid into a stone-like pattern, a crack stops reading as a flaw and becomes part of the joint line.
