Stained Concrete Flooring in Seguin TX - rich color that's easy to keep clean
Plain gray concrete that looks unfinished? We stain it room by room and seal it, so you get lasting color without covering the slab.
Is stained concrete right for the floor you already have?
Stained concrete flooring in Seguin, TX, puts color right into your existing slab, and a clear sealer on top protects that color, deepens the tone and makes the floor easier to clean.
Most people call me because they've pulled up carpet or tile and want color on the bare slab without covering it with something new. The price moves with the square footage, how much cleaning and repair the slab needs before stain will take, and whether you want acid stain, water-based stain or both. The schedule depends on how much old flooring and glue has to come up, whether a new slab still has to cure, and how long the sealer needs before you walk on it. The written estimate I give you after walking the floor has your own numbers.
If you'd rather have a harder, shinier surface, polished concrete may suit you better. Seguin requires every contractor to be registered with the city before it issues a permit, and we're fully licensed and insured.
- Acid or water-based stain, chosen room by room based on how much traffic each space gets.
- A clear sealer goes on last to protect the color and make everyday cleaning easier.
- Cracks, patches and old marks stay visible, so we look at your slab together first.
What happens after you call us about staining your floors?
Here's how a stained floor goes from your first message to the final walk-through. I check the slab myself, and our own crew does the prep, staining and sealing with me running the job.
Call or send a message
Call (830) 340-0036 or use the form, and tell us which rooms you want stained and about how big they are. Photos of any cracks or repairs help, since those will show through the stain.
I walk and check the floor
I look at the slab, check it for moisture and cracks and ask how you use each room. You get a written estimate that spells out the prep, which stain goes in which room and the sealer.
We prep and stain
We set a date and start with prep, because stain shows the slab as it is and won't cover a rushed cleaning job. Then the stain goes on room by room, the way the estimate lays out.
We seal and walk it together
Depending on the sealer, foot traffic stays off for 24 to 72 hours after it goes on, and I'll tell you which product we're using. We walk the finished floor with you before we pack up, with satisfaction guaranteed on every job.

(830) 340-0036Questions about stained concrete floors in Seguin
These are the questions I hear most when someone in Seguin is weighing stain for their floors. The stain guidance comes from a national guide, and the permit answer comes from the city.
How much does stained concrete flooring cost in Seguin, TX?
Applying decorative concrete stain usually costs about $5.50 to $6 per square foot across the US, and that's the general market range for the stain work, not our price. What your floor costs depends on its size, how much prep and repair the slab needs and which stain goes in each room, and my written estimate spells that out.
How long does a stained concrete floor last?
Many installers expect an acid-stained, sealed floor to last 20 years or more with routine maintenance. That long life depends on keeping the sealer up and cleaning the floor the right way, which the next two answers cover.
How often does stained concrete need to be resealed?
In high-traffic areas, the guide calls for reapplying sealer every two to five years. Watch the busy paths like entries and hallways, because that's where the sealer wears first and where you'll see the color start to dull.
What is the best way to clean a stained concrete floor?
Use a pH-neutral cleaner, because harsh acids and alkaline strippers dull the finish. A dust mop and a damp mop with a neutral cleaner is usually all a sealed floor needs to stay bright.
How long does new concrete need to cure before it can be stained?
New concrete should cure, or harden, for at least 28 days before acid stain goes on. If you're pouring a new slab for a room or an addition, plan the staining for after that window.
Can I stain my own concrete floors in Seguin without hiring a contractor?
Yes, Seguin lets you do work on your own homestead with the proper permits, as long as you own and live in the house and it's registered as your homestead with the Guadalupe County Appraisal District. Check with the city about permits first, and if you hire out any part of the work, the contractor has to be licensed with the City of Seguin.
Stained concrete flooring in Seguin and the cities around it
In Seguin, the Building Official issues permits and the no-permit list doesn't name staining, so I ask the city's building office first and apply as your contractor if one's needed. We stain slabs in nearby cities too, like New Braunfels and Schertz.
