DEL MAR


Del Mar is small, coastal and close to our shop in Sorrento Valley. Homes here range from beach cottages and modern rebuilds near the sand, to hillside homes with ocean views, to the townhomes and single-family neighborhoods of Del Mar Heights and nearby Carmel Valley. Creek Stone Resurfacing, Inc. is a family-owned San Diego company, licensed in California (License #971871) and insured. We have been resurfacing and coating concrete since 2014.
Living with salt air and marine layer
Del Mar’s weather is a big reason people live here, but it is hard on outdoor surfaces. Morning marine layer keeps concrete damp, salt spray reaches homes near the beach and bluffs, and sand gets tracked across every walkway. Older patios and steps show it in worn surfaces, rust stains from railings and furniture, and small spalls.
On a compact Del Mar lot, tearing out and re-pouring concrete is a big, messy job with limited access. Resurfacing avoids that. A concrete overlay bonds to your existing slab and gives you a new surface, in a solid color or a decorative variation finish (Arizona, Granite, Calico, Smoke or Natural). We repair spalls and cracks of any size during prep, and repaired cracks don’t come back as a problem. See concrete overlays and home exterior floors.
Decks and balconies over living space
Multi-level homes and condos are common in Del Mar, and that means balconies, roof decks and decks built over bedrooms or garages. These areas need a waterproofing system, not just a coating. We install Westcoat waterproofing membranes for decks and balconies, and Tidalstone, a Westcoat decorative finish, for a stone-look surface. If you are in a condo or townhome community, your HOA may need to approve the work, and in some communities the association, not the owner, is responsible for balcony work.
Pool decks, spas and outdoor showers
Wet surfaces need traction, especially around a pool, spa or outdoor shower. Granite Grip is a textured, slip-resistant coating with a speckled granite look. It takes about three days on a typical job and is no-maintenance once installed, which makes it a good fit for second homes and rentals where nobody wants a maintenance schedule. See pool deck resurfacing.
Garages in Del Mar Heights and Carmel Valley
Inland a bit, Del Mar Heights and Carmel Valley have more traditional single-family homes with attached garages. Epoxy flake and polyaspartic flake floors make those garages cleaner and more usable, and most installs take about two days. Metallic epoxy is available for a glossy, custom finish. See garage floors and epoxy garage floors.
Del Mar businesses
From the restaurants and shops along Camino Del Mar to offices and medical buildings in the surrounding area, Del Mar businesses need floors that handle sandy foot traffic and still look good. We offer commercial concrete polishing (400 or 800 grit, densified and guarded), grind and seal, commercial epoxy and overlays. Creek Stone is a Sherwin-Williams certified installer. See commercial flooring and concrete polishing.
Permits and approvals
The City of Del Mar has its own design review process for many exterior projects, and most condo and townhome communities have HOA rules. A surface resurfacing project often doesn’t change the footprint of anything, but check with the city and your HOA before you start, especially if you are changing visible colors.
Scheduling
We schedule by the week and confirm a firm start date two business days before we begin. Parking and access in Del Mar can be tight, so we will plan the logistics with you before the crew arrives.
