Benefits Of Choosing Broom Finish Concrete in Melbourne
Not sure if broom finish concrete Melbourne is the right choice for your property? Here are some of the benefits it provides.
Offers Slip Resistance
Increased traction is a common reason why so many property owners choose broom finish concrete for indoor and outdoor applications. Thanks to its textured surface, it’s able to provide better slip-resistance than a regular, troweled finish. The texture creates friction between the soles of your feet and the concrete, reducing the risk of slips and falls. This is especially beneficial for areas that are prone to moisture, like walkways, driveways, and pool decks.
Gives Concrete a Decorative Look
In addition to safety, a broom finish gives your concrete a decorative look, which in turn improves your property’s curb appeal. With its decorative touch, a broom finish breaks up the monotony of a troweled finish. Thus, it’s bound to make a great impression on guests, visitors, clients, and even potential buyers.
Cost-Effective Finish
If you’re weighing different options based on how much they cost, broom finished concrete in Melbourne is definitely more cost-effective. While it certainly requires a professional to accomplish a neat finish, they don’t have to bring in specialised machinery or equipment. Similarly, they don’t have to use different building materials like crushed gravel and stone, such as in the case of exposed aggregate. Since it’s plain concrete with a broom dragged across the surface, it minimises the need for other materials.
Impressive Durability
Rest assured that broom finish concrete doesn’t disappoint in the durability department, either! Just like other forms of concrete, it can withstand heavy loads and harsh weather conditions without deteriorating. And you won’t need to worry about making frequent repairs, since it’s fairly low-maintenance. All you have to do is keep it clean with regular sweeping to keep it looking good as new.

Different Variations of Broom Finish Concrete
If you don’t like the look of a simple broom finish, we’ve got you covered. When you work with a professional like Galcon Contractors, you can ask for a custom broom finish to match your needs.
Standard Finish
The first is your standard broom finish, which is the most common type. It’s simple and minimalistic, which is why many property owners prefer this style. Professionals create this finish by dragging a stiff-bristled broom across the surface of partially-set concrete, creating straight lines in the process. The end result looks like tiny parallel grooves made across the concrete’s surface.
Coarse FInish
Unlike the standard broom finish, which has thinner lines, this finish requires the use of a broom with stiff and thick bristles. This, in turn, gives a distinct pattern because the thicker bristles create deeper and wider grooves. In addition to a much more visible pattern, the texture also increases traction. This helps increase the surface’s slip-resistance, making it useful for residential and commercial applications like ramps and outdoor walkways.
Swirl Finish
If straight lines aren’t your style, you can ask our team at Galcon Contractors to create spiral or circular patterns instead. We can create decorative motifs across the surface by moving the broom in a swirling motion.
Checkerboard Finish
In this finish, our team gives the surface a chessboard-like appearance by making strokes in opposite directions, creating different squares. Our team creates this effect by measuring the area and dividing it into equal squares. Then, each square will alternate between horizontal and vertical lines. How’s that for an eye-catching effect?
