Broom finish concrete is a type of textured concrete surface that is created by sweeping a broom over the surface of freshly placed concrete before it has fully cured. The sweeping motion of the broom leaves behind ridges and furrows that create a non-slip surface. Broom finish concrete is commonly used for sidewalks, driveways, patios, and pool decks because of its durability, slip resistance, and low maintenance requirements. It provides a more subtle texture than stamped or exposed aggregate concrete, and it's also less expensive than these decorative options.
