Concrete Finisher
Concrete finishers plan, prepare, place and finish concrete on many different types of residential, industrial and commercial projects including floors, walls, driveways, sidewalks, streets, highways and airport runways. They understand the properties and types of concrete and apply the proper techniques for the desired finish, using both traditional and contemporary tools. Other projects include restoration and resurfacing of damaged concrete.
Construction companies are the major employers of concrete finishers.
