Concrete Cover Up
We transformed this family’s uninviting concrete patio into a soft family-friendly space, fit for the spectacular Lake Wakatipu backdrop.
The concrete patio area at our client’s new home felt barren and hard, so they barely used it.
They were concerned that being concrete, it wouldn’t be a safe space for their young children to play.
They also didn’t enjoy how the concrete looked against the stunning backdrop of Lake Wakatipu and sought a more natural aesthetic.
Installing SmartGrass instantly improved the visual appearance of the space.
SmartGrass™ was cut to shape and loosely laid with the weight of SmartFill sand acting as a fastener, making for a fast transformation.
The clients opted for a 10mm rubber underlay which provided a layer of barely noticeable softness between the finished level and the concrete below. This meant that the children would be protected if they fell.
The patio was transformed into a lively place to spend time with family. Our clients found that they use the space much more often than they wanted to before.
