Patio - exposed aggregate or sand finish concrete?
12 years ago
Hi there - I have to decide on the kind of finish I want for my new back patio and can't make up my mind. Any advice??
Here's some pix of the house to give you a sense of the style. Just did a huge remodel on the kitchen (still haven't picked out the backsplash either!)
Thanks in advance!!!
