I would like to get a concreter to do my driveway in exposed aggregate as our builder only offers coloured concrete but we prefer the look of exposed aggregate. Is there anything that i should make sure the builder has done or not done so that i can easily add the exposed aggregate after handover? Thanks for your help.
