When these repairs start cropping up on a consistent basis, it may be time to consider repaving your driveway.

However, if you would like to add a unique aspect to your driveway, you should consider opting for exposed aggregate.

Sandblasting is being used as the method of choice in many surface texturing applications today. One such application is exposing aggregates on concrete flooring. Despite the fact that modern sandblasting is much safer than conventional sandblasting, some safety hazards still do exist, and these hazards must never be overlooked. If you intend to sandblast your concrete garage floor to give it an exposed aggregate profile, you should be aware of potential safety risks associated with the job so that you can take the right safety steps in advance.
