Before the Vuba Stone Installation in Murfreesboro, TN
A homeowner in Murfreesboro, TN wanted to refresh the appearance of their porch without the cost and disruption of completely replacing the existing surface. Over time, the concrete had become worn and discolored, diminishing the home’s overall curb appeal. If your outdoor concrete is showing similar signs of age, contact TFS – The Foundation Specialists to schedule a FREE inspection and learn whether Vuba Stone could transform your space.
After contacting TFS, the homeowner met with one of our trained specialists to discuss their goals and evaluate the condition of the existing surface. The specialist carefully inspected the area to determine whether it was suitable for resurfacing and explained the options available to achieve the homeowner’s desired look.
Based on the inspection, TFS recommended Vuba Stone, a high-performance resin-bound stone overlay made with natural aggregate and UV-stable polyurethane resin. Designed to transform suitable existing surfaces, Vuba Stone provides a durable, decorative finish that can enhance curb appeal while giving outdoor spaces a completely refreshed appearance.
The Transformation
On installation day, the TFS crew arrived at the home in Murfreesboro, TN, ready to transform this porch. Before installing Vuba Stone, the team prepared the existing surface to create the proper foundation for the new finish.
Preparing the Existing Surface
Every Vuba Stone installation begins by properly repairing and preparing the existing concrete. Before the decorative Vuba Stone surface can be installed, TFS uses PolyLevel and NexusPro to create a stable, properly prepared foundation for the new overlay.
The preparation process includes:
- Inspecting the existing concrete for settlement, cracks, joints, and other damage.
- Cleaning and preparing the concrete surface for repair.
- Using PolyLevel to lift and stabilize areas of the concrete that have settled or become uneven.
- Applying NexusPro to seal cracks and joints in the existing concrete.
- Preparing the repaired and stabilized surface for the Vuba Stone system.
Completing these steps before resurfacing is an important part of the Vuba Stone installation process. PolyLevel helps provide a stable and level base, while NexusPro addresses cracks and joints before the decorative surface is applied. Together, these solutions prepare the existing concrete for its transformation with Vuba Stone.
Once the concrete was lifted, stabilized, sealed, and properly prepared, the TFS crew was ready to begin the Vuba Stone installation.
Vuba Stone Installation
Vuba Stone combines natural aggregate with UV-stable polyurethane resin to create a durable, decorative surface designed for outdoor applications.
During this project, our crew:
- Prepared the porch for resurfacing.
- Installed the appropriate base system as required for the project.
- Mixed the selected natural stone aggregate with UV-stable polyurethane resin.
- Carefully applied the Vuba Stone mixture across the prepared surface.
- Hand-finished the material to create a smooth, consistent, textured appearance.
- Completed detailed finishing around edges and transitions for a professional result.
Unlike coatings that simply cover the surface, Vuba Stone creates a decorative resin-bound stone finish that combines durability with a natural aggregate appearance.
Why Vuba Stone?
Vuba Stone gives homeowners an alternative to tearing out and replacing an existing structurally sound surface. The system can be installed over suitable concrete, asphalt, or VubaMac permeable bases, depending on the project.
Some of the primary benefits of Vuba Stone include:
- Decorative appearance: Natural aggregate creates a premium stone finish.
- UV stability: The polyurethane resin is designed to resist yellowing and degradation from sunlight.
- Permeability: The system can allow water to drain through the surface when installed as part of a fully permeable system.
- Slip resistance: Its textured finish provides additional traction for outdoor spaces.
- Durability: Vuba Stone is designed to withstand everyday outdoor use.
- Versatility: It can be used for driveways, patios, walkways, porches, pool decks, and other outdoor areas.
- Curb appeal: Homeowners can dramatically update the appearance of an existing surface without the look of traditional gray concrete.
