What is Concrete Colour Sealing?
Concrete colour sealing is the process of applying a coloured, penetrating sealer to your existing concrete driveway, patio or path. Unlike paint, which sits on the surface, a quality colour sealer penetrates into the concrete and bonds at a molecular level — creating a durable, long-lasting finish that looks far better and lasts much longer.
How Long Does Concrete Colour Sealing Last?
With proper maintenance, a quality concrete colour seal should last anywhere from 5 to 10 years or more. We recommend resealing every 3–5 years depending on the traffic load and sun exposure of your surface. We provide full concrete care instructions with every job so you know how to look after your sealed surface.
What Colours Are Available?
We offer a wide range of colours including charcoal, slate grey, beige, sand, mocha, terracotta, off-white, heritage red and more. We colour-match to your home's existing colours so the end result looks perfectly integrated with your property. We always show you colour samples before starting work.

How is the Concrete Prepared Before Sealing?
Good preparation is the secret to a quality finish. Our process begins with a thorough pressure clean to remove all dirt, algae, grease and previous sealers. We then degrease the surface, treat any stains, and allow it to dry completely before applying the sealer. Skipping preparation is the number one reason colour sealing fails prematurely — we never cut corners.
Can You Colour Seal Wet or Damp Concrete?
No — concrete must be completely dry before sealing. We monitor the weather and will reschedule if there is rain forecast. This is important for the longevity of the seal. We'll always advise you on the best timing for your job.
Does Colour Sealing Work on Old or Damaged Concrete?
In most cases, yes — colour sealing can dramatically improve the appearance of old, discoloured or lightly damaged concrete. However, if the concrete has significant cracking, spalling or structural issues, these should be addressed first. We assess the condition of your concrete during the free quote and advise on the best course of action.
How Soon Can I Drive on Sealed Concrete?
Most sealers allow foot traffic within 24 hours and vehicle traffic within 48–72 hours. We provide specific instructions for the product we use on your job. Following the curing instructions is important to get the best life out of your seal.
