The Revival Process
- 1 Glenn's On-Site Assessment: A personal inspection to identify root causes of wear or damage.
- 2 Repair & Levelling: We fix cracks and address low spots before any decorative work begins.
- 3 Meticulous Prep: 4000+ PSI blasting and acid-etching to open pores for a perfect bond.
- 4 Priming: Creating a molecular "weld" between the old slab and new finish.
- 5 Base Coat: Application of the primary Dulux Avista compound in your chosen colour.
- 6 Texture Coats: Spray-on texture for premium grip and modern styling.
- 7 Final Seal: Two coats of clear sealer for maximum UV and stain protection.
-
The Dulux Advantage: As Accredited Applicators, we use professional-grade products that are significantly more durable than standard concrete paint.
-
Custom Finishes: Choose from a vast range of contemporary colours and textures to match your home’s aesthetic.
-
Protection: Every revival is finished with high-quality sealers that protect against UV fading, oil spills, and salt-air corrosion
-
Enhanced Safety & Grip: We prioritize the safety of your home by integrating professional-grade anti-slip additives into our final coating and grinding down any trip hazards if required
Structural repairs & revival
We transform damaged, failing concrete into safe, stable structures that protect the long-term integrity of your property. Specialising in targeted repairs and remedial works that address underlying structural concerns, we ensure your property remains safe, functional and structuraly sound so your concrete lasts for decades to come.
protecting the Integrity of Your Home
We also specialise in complex repairs that stop the spread of damage and prepare surfaces for new installation
Concrete Cancer (Spalling) Repair: We chip back to the steel reinforcement, treat the rust, and rebuild the area with structural mortars.
Structural Crack repair: We use high-strength epoxy resin techniques to weld cracks back together, preventing further slab movement.
Magnesite & Coating Removal: We professionally strip old magnesite or failed membranes and diamond-grind the slab back to a healthy, clean base.
Leveling & Floor Grinding: Correcting uneven slabs or height differences (trip hazards) to ensure a perfectly flat and safe surface
Sectional Replacement: Where damage is extreme (such as root damage), we remove and replace existing concrete areas to restore the slab's utility.
-
Levelling & Grinding: We remove trip hazards and "high spots" through precision floor grinding, ensuring a perfectly level foundation for any finish.
-
Patching & Section Replacement: For areas that are beyond simple repair, we provide seamless patching or full-section removal and replacement.
-
Health & Maintenance: We identify early signs of salt-air wear and reinforcement corrosion. By addressing these minor issues now, we prevent them from turning into expensive structural problems later.
-
Magnesite & Coating Removal: We specialise in the difficult "prep" work, including the removal of old, failing coatings or magnesite, leaving you with a clean, structural base.
High-Pressure Blasting & Prep
Restoring concrete using high-pressure water blasting to remove deep grime and stubborn debris, combined with carefully controlled acid etching for professional-grade stain treatment and thorough surface preparation.
The Foundation of a quality Finish
Success in concrete restoration is 90% preparation. A standard garden hose or domestic pressure washer just isn't quiet enough to strip back the surface and guarantee a long-term bond for new coatings.
Industrial-Grade Power: We use 4000+ PSI commercial blasting to remove decades of grime, oil, and organic mould.
Acid Etching: This technical step uses a mild solution to "etch" the surface, creating a microscopic profile that allows sealers and resurfacing compounds to "grip" the concrete.
Deep Stain Treatment: getting into the pores removing oil, rust, and bore-water stains that standard cleaning cannot touch.
Safety Restoration: Removing the slippery "bio-film" of algae and moss to return the original safety and grip to your pathways and stairs.
-
Industrial-Grade Power: We use commercial high-pressure water blasting to strip away years of deeply embedded grime, mould, and moss.
-
Acid Etching: This is our "secret weapon." We use a professional-grade acid wash to open the "pores" of the concrete. This ensures that any new sealers or resurfacing products bond chemically to the slab, preventing peeling or bubbling later.
-
Stain Treatment: We utilize specialized treatments for oil, grease, and rust stains that have penetrated the surface, ensuring a clean "canvas" for your restoration.
-
preparation for resurface:
30+ Years Experience: A lifetime of local knowledge in Northern Beaches conditions.
Dulux Accredited: We use the full Dulux Avista system, ensuring every job follows the correct chemical and structural protocols.
End-to-End Service: From Glenn’s initial site inspection to the final protective seal, we manage the entire project.
Remedial Expertise: We don't just fix the surface; we address the "bones" of your concrete, including spalling and structural cracks.

Frequently Asked Questions
concrete resurfacing Dulux Avista:
-
We know you want to get back to normal quickly. Following Dulux Avista guidelines:
Foot Traffic: Usually ready after 24 hours.
Vehicle Traffic: We recommend waiting 5 full days to allow the sealer to reach its maximum hardness and protection.
-
Yes, we use the Dulux Avista Concrete Crack Repair Kit (a high-strength epoxy) to treat and fill cracks before the new surface is applied. While this provides a strong bond, please note that if the ground underneath continues to move, new "reflective" cracks can occasionally appear over time.
-
Absolutely. Resurfacing is typically faster, cleaner, and more cost-effective than a full "rip and replace." It creates a new surface with a compressive strength of up to 40MPa—which is actually double the strength of most standard residential concrete slabs
-
To keep your concrete looking brand new, we recommend a simple high-pressure clean every 6–12 months to remove dirt and grime. For long-term protection, we suggest a professional reseal every 2–3 years to maintain the UV protection and stain resistance.
-
Yes, as long as it has cured for at least 28 days
