Serrato Builders is your C-8 licensed colored concrete contractor in Los Angeles County. We specialize in integral color concrete, acid staining, and decorative overlay finishes that turn ordinary concrete into a design feature. Unlike surface coatings that peel and fade, our colored concrete has pigment mixed throughout the entire slab — so the color lasts the life of the concrete. From warm earth tones to bold contemporary hues, we create custom colored driveways, patios, walkways, pool decks, and interior concrete floors throughout LA and the San Fernando Valley. Whether you're searching "colored concrete near me," "stained concrete patio Los Angeles," or "decorative concrete contractor," we deliver color that won't fade, peel, or wash away.
Color transforms concrete from a gray utility surface into a design statement. We offer three coloring methods — integral color mixed throughout the slab, acid staining for marbled variegated effects, and decorative overlays for existing concrete — so you get exactly the look you want, indoors or out.
Pigment is mixed into the entire concrete batch — not just sprayed or brushed on top. This means the color runs all the way through the slab. If it chips or wears, the same color is underneath. Available in warm earth tones, grays, terracotta, charcoal, and custom color matches. Ideal for driveways, patios, walkways, and pool decks where lasting color matters.
Acid stains chemically react with the minerals in concrete to create unique, variegated color patterns that can't be replicated — each floor is one of a kind. Popular for interior concrete floors, retail spaces, restaurant floors, and outdoor patios. We apply professional-grade acid stains in rich amber, mahogany, coffee, and blue-green patina tones, sealed for durability.
Don't want to tear out your existing concrete? A colored decorative overlay can resurface and transform old, stained, or dull concrete into a beautiful new surface. We apply polymer-modified cementitious overlays with integral color, then seal for a fresh, durable finish. Great for pool deck resurfacing, patio makeovers, and commercial walkways.
Make your driveway stand out with integral color that won't fade under the Southern California sun. Popular driveway colors include charcoal, slate gray, terracotta, warm sand, and cocoa brown. We can also add a colored border band for extra curb appeal. Every colored driveway includes proper slope, rebar reinforcement, and expansion joints.
Polished and stained concrete floors for modern homes, lofts, retail spaces, and commercial properties. We pour new colored slabs or stain existing concrete with acid or water-based stains, then grind and polish to your desired sheen — matte, satin, or high-gloss. A durable, low-maintenance alternative to tile, wood, or carpet.
Need your new patio to match your home's exterior color palette? We offer custom color matching and can create blended pigments to achieve specific shades. We'll pour a small test sample so you can see the cured color before we pour the full slab — no surprises, no guesswork.
These are just starting points — we can custom-match virtually any color. Browse more options in our Concrete Finish Catalog.
Integral Pigment — Not Surface Paint
The color is mixed into the entire concrete batch at the plant, not sprayed on top. It's the same color all the way through — chip it, wear it, grind it, the color is still there.
UV-Resistant Sealers
We seal every colored surface with high-solids acrylic sealer that blocks UV rays and prevents color fading — critical for the intense Southern California sun.
No Peeling, No Flaking
Unlike painted concrete or epoxy coatings, integral color can't peel because there's nothing to separate from. The concrete itself is the color.
