Exposed aggregate concrete is a lot like a piece of marble before polishing: A plain, unremarkable surface has been stripped away to reveal the exceptional beauty lying beneath. In the case of exposed aggregate concrete, that beauty is in the form of decorative aggregate, either natural or manufactured.
The process of using exposed aggregate has been around since the early 1900s, and continues to be used due to its decorative qualities. An exposed aggregate finish offers numerous advantages. Bestway Concrete excels at creating beautiful exposed aggregate concrete for our Edmonton and area customers.
Stamped concrete is designed to resemble brick, slate, flagstone, cobblestone and other patterns.

Stamped concrete is a perfect solution for driveways, courtyards, and patios.
Until recently, driveways were made of either asphalt or concrete. Today, driveways can be created using a wide variety of methods and products, and a new driveway is one of the best ways of sprucing up the front of your home. A quality driveway created by Bestway Concrete will last for years to come.

Under every house is a foundation, and under most foundations are footings. Most of the time we take footings for granted, and usually we can: For typical soils, a common 16- or 20-inch-wide footing can more than handle the relatively light weight of an ordinary house.
Buildings constructed over soft soil can sometimes have issues with settlement issues. If settlement is uneven, this can lead to damage to the building. You can trust Bestway Concrete's experience to build a solid footing for your building.
Piling is the technique of driving steel pipe pilings to remedy failing building foundations and to correct foundation settlement. Steel piers are driven to rock or a suitable soil bearing layer and are connected to the foundation through a metal head assembly. Once a suitable bearing is reached, each pile is tested to ensure it will maintain its integrity. If you are experiencing a failing foundation, we encourage you to phone us as soon as possible, to prevent further damage to your building. Contact Bestway Concrete today for details.
