Exposed aggregate is a popular decorative concrete finish that involves exposing the natural beauty of aggregates such as pebbles, stones, or shells embedded in the concrete surface.

The process involves pouring the concrete and then removing the top layer of cement paste to reveal the desired aggregate. This finish not only adds an aesthetically pleasing texture and dimension to the surface but also provides increased durability and resistance to wear and tear.

Exposed aggregate is commonly used in driveways, patios, footpaths, and steps , offering a unique and visually appealing option for enhancing outdoor spaces.
