Custom Designs

We create patios and walkways tailored to your property's unique layout and your personal style. Choose shapes, sizes, finishes, and decorative elements that perfectly match your vision.

Decorative Options

Enhance your patio or walkway with stamped patterns, colored concrete, exposed aggregate, or decorative borders. We offer finishing options that range from simple and elegant to elaborate and eye-catching.

Proper Drainage

We slope and grade every patio and walkway to ensure water drains away from your home's foundation. Proper drainage prevents standing water, ice buildup, and premature deterioration.

Long-Lasting Beauty

Quality concrete patios and walkways maintain their appearance for decades with minimal maintenance. Sealed surfaces resist stains, weather damage, and fading from UV exposure.

Why Choose Our Patio & Walkway Services?

Creating beautiful, functional outdoor spaces requires both artistic vision and technical expertise. We listen to how you want to use your outdoor area and design solutions that work with your property's natural flow, existing landscaping, and architectural style.

Our installation process goes beyond just pouring concrete—we carefully plan drainage, consider sun and shade patterns, and integrate features like steps, borders, and transition zones that make your outdoor space truly special. The result is a patio or walkway that enhances your home's value and your quality of life.

Our Patio & Walkway Installation Process

1. Design Consultation

We walk your property to understand your vision, discuss how you'll use the space, and identify any site challenges. We'll suggest sizes, shapes, and decorative options that complement your home and landscape.

2. Site Preparation

We excavate the area, remove grass and unsuitable soil, and establish proper grade for drainage. A compacted gravel base provides stable support and helps prevent settling.

3. Forms and Reinforcement

We set forms to define the patio or walkway shape and ensure proper slopes. Steel reinforcement is placed throughout to add strength and minimize cracking.

4. Concrete Pour and Finishing

We pour quality concrete and finish to your chosen texture—broom finish, smooth trowel, stamped patterns, or exposed aggregate. Control joints are cut at proper intervals.

5. Sealing and Final Details

After curing, we can apply sealer for added protection and color enhancement. We clean up thoroughly and ensure smooth transitions to existing surfaces and landscaping.

Patio & Walkway FAQs

How thick should a concrete patio be?
Standard residential patios are 4 inches thick, which is suitable for foot traffic and patio furniture. We may recommend 5-6 inches for areas that will support heavy items like outdoor kitchens or hot tubs.
Can I add a patio to a sloped yard?
Yes. We can create terraced levels, integrate retaining walls, or build raised patios to accommodate slopes. These solutions create usable flat space while managing drainage and preventing erosion.
What's better: concrete or pavers?
Concrete offers a seamless surface with lower installation cost and less maintenance. Pavers can shift, allow weed growth, and require periodic releveling. With decorative options like stamping, concrete provides similar aesthetics at better value.
How long does a concrete patio last?
A properly installed concrete patio can last 30-50 years or more with minimal maintenance. Periodic sealing every 2-4 years helps protect against stains, moisture, and surface wear, extending the life even further.
