Located in Comal and Guadalupe Counties, New Braunfels covers an area of 44.9 square miles and is known for its German heritage. It has a population of over 90,000 people and is a suburb in the northern part of San Antonio. New Braunfels was established in 1845 by Prince Carl of Solms-Braunfels, who was the Commissioner General of the Mainzer Adelsverein (which was also known as the Nobelman’s Society). He named the settlement after his home in Germany and organized hundreds of people in the country to settle in Texas.
The Gruene Historical District is located in New Braunfels and was founded by the sons of Ernst and Antoinette Gruene, who were settlers within the community. The area had a bank, post office, school, general store, lumberyard, gristmill, dance hall, and cotton gin. It also had access to two railways that were used for shipping cotton bales, but it’s most famous for its dance hall (which was a family activity in those days). Because of bad cotton crops caused by boll weevils and bank failures during the Crash of 1929, commercial activity in the area slowed down. But it’s now recognized as a Nationally Registered Historic District, where people can dine within the ruins of the original gristmill or listen to live music at Gruene Hall.

Examples Of Our Concrete Coating Work
Garages
Your garage is one of the most important parts of your home. But if you have an outdated, cracked, or sub-standard floor, it can reduce its value and functionality by a significant amount. You can improve the look of your garage floor with a concrete coating — all while adding an exceptional amount of durability.
Patios
There are a number of options for concrete patio coatings, but the choice you make will depend on the type of work you want done. Patio paint will be the least expensive option, but it doesn’t handle wear and tear as well as some of the other options on the market.
DRIVEWAYS & WALKWAYS
Resurfacing is a good option if you want to make your existing concrete look brand new. You can apply it directly to the concrete without having to rip anything out. This can save you time, hassle, and money. You can even customize the coating to meet your specific design needs.
POOL DECKS
While installing and maintaining a pool can be expensive, pool decks and patios are often overlooked. This can create a huge problem for property owners. If you want to make sure that mold, mildew, water, and UV rays don’t cause damage or deterioration, it’s important to seal the concrete surface around your pool.
UTILITY ROOMS
Laundry rooms can be hard to do right. They’re not the largest rooms in a house, but they need to be sturdy. This is especially true for the floor. It needs to handle moisture, heat, spills, and regular activity
Stains & Dyes
Colored concrete has been a popular choice for residential properties, so you’re most likely going to see a few colorful driveways or patios on any neighborhood street. In recent years, the same has been true for commercial properties as well. But when it comes to putting color on concrete, it’s important to know about the different product options if you want to get the look you want.
