Homeowners across south-central Kansas are re-imagining basements, patios, garages and living rooms with a finish that is equal parts durable workhorse and eye-catching showpiece: stained concrete. Wichita’s four-season climate demands a floor system that will not warp in humidity, crack under January freezes, or fade beneath July sun. Stained concrete answers each of those challenges while delivering the natural color variation and marbling once reserved for high-end stone. CountBricks has been at the forefront of the movement, pairing on-site AI voice takeoffs with realtime material pricing to give residents precise, lightning-fast quotes for stained concrete projects.
1. Slab evaluation and moisture testing
2. Surface prep through diamond grinding and shot blasting
3. Application of acid-based or water-based stain for color
4. Neutralizing, cleaning, and sealer application
5. Optional polishing or slip-resistant additives
Each step has a cost implication. With CountBricks voice estimation, our project managers walk the slab with you, capture square footage verbally, and instantly populate tasks, labor hours and material line items. You receive a detailed digital estimate before we leave your driveway.
• Warm earth tones that echo the Flint Hills prairie
• Charcoal and slate accents for modern loft conversions in Delano
• Terra cotta overlays that match Spanish-inspired roofs in Riverside
• High-gloss walnut for luxury Lake Point basements
Because we update our stain supplier databases hourly, CountBricks clients always see the exact pigment surcharge rather than a padded allowance.
Freeze-thaw cycles. Wichita’s winter swings can stress slabs. We specify penetrating sealers with a higher solids content to mitigate micro-cracking.
Clay soils. Expansive sub-grades on the west side of town require control-joint planning. CountBricks AI flags any spacing that exceeds ACI residential guidelines before the crew arrives.
Interior air quality. Many homeowners worry about VOCs. Our estimator filters stains by VOC rating in real time so you can choose the safest product without scrolling brochures.
Local forums cite ranges from $4 to $10 per square foot, but those ranges mean little without context. CountBricks data harvested from hundreds of Wichita projects paints a clearer picture:
• Basic single-color stain and satin sealer: $5.25/sf average
• Multi-color, two-tone saw-cut pattern: $7.80/sf average
• High-gloss polish with metallic accents: $9.60/sf average
All pricing includes surface prep, stain, sealer, labor, and a 12-month workmanship warranty. Taxes and permit fees update automatically inside CountBricks.com/services based on your ZIP code and slab age.
• AI voice capture measures square footage 67% faster than manual tape
• Integrated supplier feeds show today’s stain and sealer costs, not last quarter’s
• Automated task sequencing highlights curing times so your schedule is accurate to the hour
Family-friendly basement play areas. Choose water-based stains topped with matte urethane for easier cleanup and minimal slipperiness.
Indoor-outdoor flow. Extend the same stain from your kitchen through a folding glass wall onto the patio to visually enlarge the space.
Heated garage workshops. Epoxy speckle chips can be broadcast between stain and sealer for extra chemical resistance.
Mid-century makeovers. Wichita’s College Hill bungalows shine with light grey acid-stained floors that highlight exposed beam ceilings.
• Sweep or dust-mop weekly to keep grit from dulling the sealer
• Reapply a residential-grade wax every 12 months in high-traffic zones
• Avoid harsh citrus cleaners that strip protective layers
• Schedule a CountBricks inspection every three years for re-seal timing
