When we need another way in, we take SH-71 to Bee Creek Road and come in on Highlands Boulevard. When we take a job there, the same roads get us to The Hills of Lakeway, Serene Hills, Hudson Bend, and Four Points. Most days our equipment heads home with the crew. If something needs to stay at the house, we'll talk with you about it first. There's no fixed response time for jobs out here. When we can start rides on how booked we are, the size of your slab, and how many trips out RM 620 the job takes. Send the room measurements and a few photos, and we'll give you an estimated date range from our current schedule. That range can still move with the weather, material availability, or site conditions. A few access details change the quote: room in the driveway for the trailer, power, and whether stairs are the only way in. Can the room sit empty until everything dries and cures? It needs to. When the job is done, we go over care, cure times, and upkeep with you. How the floor holds up depends on following that guidance. If questions or concerns come up later, reach out and we'll talk it through. ## What Changes How Stain Turns Out in Rough Hollow Rough Hollow has been building since the mid 2000s (and new homes still go up), so slabs vary from house to house. Older slabs often soak up more, and acid stain gives them the mottled, translucent earth tones it's known for. But newer homes often have smoother, tighter slabs finished by machine. On those, we usually point you to water based stain for more even color and more shades to pick from. Garage slabs here usually take epoxy or polyaspartic coatings well with the right prep. Depending on the slab, that can include diamond grinding and moisture testing. Outside, patios, pool decks, and driveways take a lot of afternoon sun and heat. So we lean toward lighter colors, outdoor sealers designed for sun, and textures that give more grip. No surface is fully slip proof when it's wet. Keep wet spots dry and put mats where people come in from outside. We size up every slab on its own. An address tells us nothing about the concrete under your floor. ### Why Rough Hollow fits our work Rough Hollow's lake homes bring us requests for garage coatings, stained floors, and outdoor slabs that take a beating from the sun. That work is our whole trade, and it's why Rough Hollow is on our list. We don't have an office in Lakeway. Real projects ## Concrete jobs we've finished Every project shows the finish and the work it took. Pick one close to what you have in mind, then ask how your Lakeway slab would take it. Read our editorial standards [/editorial-standards/ →](/editorial-standards/) Browse the guides [/guide/ →](/guide/) Questions ## Questions we get about Rough Hollow Do you cover Rough Hollow for decorative concrete work? Rough Hollow is on our list of possible service areas, not a confirmed one. Tell us the address, roughly how many square feet, and what shape the slab is in. We'll say whether we can take it and when. We get requests from [Lakeway](https://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/entries/lakeway-tx), Bee Cave, The Hills of Lakeway, and Hudson Bend, and we confirm coverage job by job. Do you have an office or crew based in Rough Hollow? No. We're based in Austin, and we drive out to jobs here on RM 620. There's no Lakeway office or depot, and we won't pretend otherwise. How fast can you start a project here? Our calendar and the size of the job set that. Heavy prep, old tile or carpet to pull, or several coats of sealer make a job harder to slot in. The proposal we send with your quote shows an estimated date range. Weather, what materials are in stock, and site conditions can all change it. What concrete work can you do out here? You can ask us about the same seven services here as in Austin, and we confirm coverage before we book. That means stained concrete floors, polished concrete, epoxy and metallic epoxy, overlays and microtoppings, patio resurfacing, countertop resurfacing, and floor restoration. Nearly every job runs slab check, then surface prep, then sealer. We write out the exact steps for your job in the proposal. Do garage floors near Lake Travis need different prep? The lake doesn't change it. Your garage slab does. If the slab needs it, diamond grinding opens up the surface so the coating grips. Moisture testing depends on your slab and the coating you choose. Homes around Lake Travis were built in different years, so we typically check each slab before we recommend a coating. Your proposal lays out every step in writing. What does concrete staining cost for a Lakeway home? The slab's condition, the square footage, any old flooring we pull up, and the finish you pick all move the price. A basic stain usually comes in below new tile or hardwood per square foot. Photos and measurements let us price your job instead of guessing. What are the downsides of staining concrete? Stain doesn't cover anything up. Cracks, patches, and old glue in the slab all end up in the look of the floor. Color follows how much each part of the slab takes in, and you're standing on a hard surface. Out at your house, we'll walk through these tradeoffs so you know what you're getting. How long does acid stained concrete last? Acid stain that's put down right typically soaks into the slab instead of sitting on top. So with proper care, the color is designed to resist the peeling and flaking you see with paint or a coating. How often the sealer on top needs redoing depends on the slab, how much foot traffic you get, and how you clean. Instead of going by the calendar, have us check it when the shine starts wearing thin. What's the cheapest way to finish an indoor concrete floor? Staining the slab you already have is one of the cheapest options. The concrete is already there, so there's nothing to tear out and no new material to put in. A basic one color acid stain with a clear sealer sits at the low end of what a pro charges. Polished concrete can come close in price on slabs that are already in decent shape. Both usually cost less per square foot than new tile or hardwood. Is stained concrete a good fit for homes around Lake Travis? Many homes around Lake Travis sit on a concrete slab at ground level. With proper care, stained concrete is typically tough and easy to care for on those slabs, and it suits open living areas. How it turns out depends on your slab, so we typically test a small sample area before we settle on a color. ### Still deciding? Send the room size, the current flooring, and a couple of photos. We'll let you know what the slab needs, with no commitment on your end.
