Concrete Sealing in Cambridge
A concrete sealer in Cambridge has to cope with shade, damp and winter salt. We match penetrating or film-forming sealers to your surface and quote in writing.
Sealed concrete for Galt, Preston and Hespeler
D&D Home Services provides concrete sealing in Cambridge, from plain driveways and steps to stamped and coloured patios. We work in Galt, West Galt, East Galt, Preston, Hespeler and Blair. A penetrating sealer protects plain concrete, a film-forming sealer suits decorative work, and every job begins with a free written quote.
Galt was called the Manchester of Canada, with mills and foundries powered by the Grand River, and Preston grew up around its own mills. The city came together in 1973, when Galt, Preston, Hespeler and Blair joined. Three old towns mean slabs of every age, all facing the same freeze-thaw winters. For other work, see home services in Cambridge, interlock sealing in Cambridge or asphalt driveway sealing in Cambridge.
Steps and walks in West Galt
West Galt's heritage district is made up of stately homes from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and older homes bring older steps and walks. A penetrating sealer soaks in without adding a shine, so plain broom-finished concrete keeps the look it has while the sealer blocks water and de-icing salt.
Green concrete in the shade
Humid summers and shade let algae settle on the north side of a house. Sealer cannot grip a dirty slab, so we clean first, pre-treat oil spots and give the concrete time to dry fully. Then a penetrating sealer limits how much water the surface takes in.
Driveways in all three old towns
Driveways and garage aprons in Galt, Preston and Hespeler face the same winter: freeze-thaw cycles, slush and road salt. Water that freezes inside concrete expands, and salt draws more in. We cover the edges and joints so nothing is left exposed.
Stamped and exposed-aggregate work
Stamped concrete sealing in Cambridge uses a film-forming sealer, which deepens the colour with a finish anywhere from satin to gloss. Because the film wears, it is recoated more often than a penetrating sealer is reapplied. If a stamped patio has clouded over, we look for moisture trapped beneath the old sealer first.
Every job is quoted on its own, with no published price. Call (519) 501-5003 for a free written quote. Work starts only after the price is confirmed in writing. See the full concrete sealing service, the same service in Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph, or request your free quote.
Four steps to sealed concrete in Cambridge
Walk the property
We look at each slab, note its age, any old sealer and any cracks or flaking, then agree the sealer type with you.
Clean off the green
Algae, grime and oil spots are dealt with, and the concrete is left to dry all the way through.
Seal the surface
Sealer goes on at the label rate, with edges and joints covered so nothing is missed.
Set the cure times
You get the label times for walking and for driving, since the weather can shift them.
Every slab is priced on its own. A clean front walk and a long, shaded driveway covered in algae are very different jobs, and the sealer type, any stamped finish, steps, edges and access all change the number too. You get a free written quote, with the price confirmed in writing before work starts.
Yes. D&D is based in Kitchener-Waterloo and seals driveways, walks, steps, aprons and patios across Cambridge, including Galt, Preston, Hespeler and Blair. The process is the same wherever you live in the city: a look at the surface, a written quote, then cleaning, drying and sealing.
Yes. Patios take a film-forming sealer, as do stamped, coloured and exposed-aggregate surfaces. The finish runs from satin to gloss. Steps and pool decks can have an anti-slip additive mixed in, and the sealer and finish are confirmed in your written quote.
Oil spots are pre-treated as part of the cleaning, before any sealer goes on. Sealer needs a clean, dry surface to hold. The apron is cleaned, left until it has dried fully, then sealed at the label rate, edges and joints included.
A penetrating sealer often lasts 5 to 10 years, depending on the product and how much exposure it gets. A film-forming sealer is recoated more often, because the film gradually wears away. We tell you what yours is likely to need.
