Nashville Concrete Makeover Ideas for Every Space Indoors & Out
Get inspiration for updating your concrete surfaces and turning them into standout features in and around your property.If you’re looking to refresh the look of an existing concrete surface, a concrete makeover is a smart solution. Instead of removing and replacing the concrete, resurfacing allows professionals to prepare the existing surface and apply a concrete overlay (sometimes called a concrete coating) right on top. This process can give your space an entirely new look while saving time and money compared to full replacement. It’s also a more sustainable option since the original concrete stays in place. Read on to learn more about decorative coatings and how they can elevate your space.
Spray Knockdown Texture
If you want a surface that stays cooler underfoot and provides added slip resistance, knockdown texture is a great option. SUNDEK’s Classic Texture is commonly used on pool decks, patios, and other outdoor living areas. It creates a comfortable, durable surface that looks great and performs well in spaces where people gather and walk barefoot.

Architectural Limestone Coating
With this coating that looks and feels like real limestone, you get an authentic appearance without having to invest in actual stone. SUNDEK’s SunStone can be applied over just about any surface type including sheet rock, stucco, and more.
Soft Coating System
If you’re looking for a surface that emphasizes comfort and safety, a soft coating system is a great option. Designed for areas where people are often barefoot or where slips and falls are a concern, these cushioned surfaces provide a more forgiving feel underfoot while still offering the durability needed for outdoor environments. Soft coating systems are commonly used for splash pads, pool decks, and play areas because they offer slip resistance, vibrant design options, and long-lasting performance in wet conditions. SUNDEK’s SunPlay system is a popular example, combining a cushioned feel with durable materials that stand up to UV exposure, chlorine, and everyday use.
Textured Acrylic Coating for Areas with Water
If you’re looking for a durable coating that improves traction around the pool while protecting the concrete beneath, a textured acrylic coating is a great option. These coatings create a skid-resistant surface designed to stand up to water, sun exposure, and pool chemicals, making them ideal for busy pool decks. They can also be enhanced with decorative features like scorelines, aggregate effects, or masonry patterns to elevate the overall look of the space. SUNDEK’s SunSplash system is a great option, offering long-lasting protection with a low-maintenance finish.
Stamped Concrete
A stamped concrete overlay allows you to achieve the appearance of stone, brick, or other masonry materials without the high cost of installing them. The thin yet durable stamped overlay can be stamped with patterns and textures, making it a popular choice for patios, walkways, and driveways.

Epoxy & Polyaspartic Coatings
When durability is the top priority, epoxy or polyaspartic coatings are hard to beat. These coatings create a tough surface that holds up well in high-use areas such as garages, workshops, basements, and commercial spaces. These coatings are also surprisingly customizable—you can choose effects such as decorative color flakes to create a unique look. SUNDEK has two epoxy floor coatings: SunEpoxy 54 and SunEpoxy 100. SUNDEK’s polyaspartic coating is SunOne.
Custom Designs
For a more personalized surface, custom elements like borders, patterns, logos, or decorative designs can be incorporated into the concrete. While these features work well in residential settings, businesses in the Nashville area often use them near entrances to reinforce their branding and make a strong first impression.
Stained Concrete Finishes
Staining is an excellent way to add color and character to concrete surfaces. Depending on the type of stain and application method, you can achieve subtle earth tones, rich color variations, or a more dramatic decorative effect. Learn more about SUNDEK’s stains and dye solutions.
