Concrete Staining
in North Georgia & Upstate SC
Transform plain, worn, or faded concrete with rich, lasting color. Driveways, patios, pool decks, and walkways -- UV-resistant finishes that add curb appeal and protect your surfaces for years.
Professional Concrete Staining That Adds Color, Character & Protection
North Georgia's outdoor living surfaces take a beating. Sun, rain, pollen, and years of foot and vehicle traffic leave driveways, patios, and walkways looking faded, gray, and worn out. Plain concrete doesn't have to stay plain -- and damaged concrete doesn't have to be replaced.
At Southern Exterior Cleaning, we use professional-grade concrete stains to transform dull, aging surfaces with rich, long-lasting color. We offer both acid-based stains that chemically react with concrete to produce natural, variegated earth tones, and water-based stains that deliver more uniform, vibrant color options. Each approach has distinct advantages, and we help you choose the right one for your surface, your style, and North Georgia's climate.
Every staining job starts with thorough surface preparation -- cleaning, degreasing, and profiling the concrete so the stain penetrates evenly. We finish with a UV-resistant sealer that protects the color and adds a satin or gloss finish that makes your concrete look like a custom installation.
Surfaces We Transform with Color
From residential driveways to commercial entryways, we bring lasting color to every concrete surface.
Driveways
The single biggest curb appeal upgrade you can make. Transform a plain gray driveway into a rich, custom-colored surface with coordinating border accents and UV-resistant finish.
Patios & Outdoor Living
Extend the look of your home's interior to your outdoor living space. Stained patios create a warm, inviting atmosphere that pairs with any landscaping or outdoor furniture style.
Pool Decks
Add color and slip-resistant texture to pool surrounds. Our pool deck staining is formulated to handle moisture, chlorine exposure, and heavy foot traffic while keeping surfaces cool and safe.
Walkways & Entryways
Make a strong first impression. Stained walkways and entryways guide visitors to your front door with rich color that complements your home's exterior and landscaping.
Garage Floors
Upgrade your garage from a plain gray slab to a showroom-quality floor. Concrete staining resists tire marks, oil drips, and hot-tire pickup better than paint or epoxy alternatives.
Porches & Steps
Add warmth and character to front porches, back porches, and concrete steps. Staining creates a natural, elegant look that paint simply can't match -- and it won't peel or chip.

How We Deliver Professional
Concrete Staining Results
Every staining job follows our proven four-step process to ensure consistent, long-lasting color on every surface.
Clean & Prep Surface
We pressure wash, degrease, and profile the concrete to remove all dirt, old sealers, and contaminants. Proper prep is the single most important factor in stain adhesion and color consistency.
Select Color & Test
We help you choose from our full range of stain colors and always apply a test patch on your specific concrete so you can see the actual result before we commit to the full surface.
Apply Stain
Using professional sprayers and techniques, we apply the stain in controlled, even coats. For acid stains, we manage the chemical reaction time for optimal color depth and variation.
Seal & Protect
We apply a UV-resistant sealer that locks in the color, protects against moisture and wear, and adds your choice of satin or gloss finish. The sealer is what makes the color last.
