Transform your backyard into a true outdoor living space with a professionally installed concrete patio — durable, low-maintenance, and fully customizable.
A well-installed concrete patio adds immediate value to your home and creates the foundation for a genuine outdoor living space. Unlike pavers or wood decks, concrete requires minimal ongoing maintenance — no annual sealing, no boards to replace, no weeds growing through gaps.
ConcreterCo designs and installs patios for every style of home: from simple broom-finish slabs for maximizing value, to elaborate multi-level stamped concrete areas with integrated seat walls and fire pit pads. Our contractors work with you from design to completion.
Why Concrete Over Pavers or Wood?
Longevity: A properly installed concrete patio lasts 25–50 years with minimal maintenance. Wood decks typically need major work within 10–15 years.
No settling: Unlike pavers, poured concrete patios don't shift, sink, or develop uneven spots over time when properly installed with a gravel sub-base.
Design flexibility: Concrete can be shaped into curves, multi-levels, and custom configurations that would be difficult or expensive with pavers.
Cost effective: Per square foot, concrete is typically 20–40% less expensive than quality paver installations, with lower lifetime maintenance costs.
Termite and moisture resistant: Unlike wood, concrete doesn't rot, warp, or attract wood-destroying insects.
Patio Finish & Design Options
Smooth / broom finish — Clean and contemporary. Ideal for minimalist designs or when you plan to add outdoor rugs or furniture.
Exposed aggregate — Natural stone texture with excellent traction. Popular for pool surrounds and areas exposed to moisture.
Stamped concrete — Mimic flagstone, slate, brick, or wood planks with integral color and stamped patterns. See our stamped concrete page.
Stained concrete — Acid or water-based stains create rich, variegated color effects. Combined with sealer for a polished, upscale look.
Colored / integral pigment — Color is mixed throughout the concrete, so chips and scratches don't reveal gray beneath. Available in 40+ custom colors.

Common Patio Questions
For comfortable dining and seating, plan for at least 16x16 feet (256 sq ft). A 20x20 foot patio (400 sq ft) gives you plenty of room for a table, chairs, and a lounge area. We'll help you size it during your free estimate.
Most jurisdictions don't require a permit for ground-level patios, but rules vary. Our local crews handle permitting when required. Raised or elevated structures may require engineering review.
Light foot traffic is typically safe after 24–48 hours. We recommend waiting 7 days before placing heavy furniture. Full concrete strength develops over 28 days — avoid dragging heavy objects across the surface during this period.
