Concrete Patio Services

Outdoor Living Spaces Built in Concrete

A well-designed concrete patio can turn an outdoor area into a practical and attractive extension of the home. Whether the goal is to create a new backyard entertaining space, repair an aging slab, expand an existing patio, or add a decorative finish, concrete offers a wide range of options for residential outdoor spaces.

Concrete patios can be customized in size, shape, texture, color, and finish to match the surrounding property. They can be used for outdoor dining areas, seating spaces, covered patios, pool decks, outdoor kitchens, fire pit areas, and other backyard features.

Our concrete patio services include new installation, repairs, complete replacement, stamped concrete, decorative finishes, colored concrete, backyard patios, covered patio slabs, poolside patios, and patio extensions.

Concrete Patio Installation

Concrete patio installation starts with careful planning and site preparation.

The area must be measured and evaluated for drainage, soil conditions, access, existing landscaping, and the intended use of the patio. After excavation, the base is prepared and forms are installed to establish the shape and dimensions of the new patio.

Depending on the project, reinforcement may also be added before the concrete is poured.

The concrete is then placed, leveled, finished, and allowed to cure properly.

A new patio can be built in many different layouts, including rectangular patios, curved patios, wraparound outdoor spaces, small seating areas, or larger entertainment zones.

Finishing options can range from a simple broom finish to stamped patterns, decorative borders, exposed aggregate, or colored concrete.

Cracked concrete slab that needs patio repair

Concrete Patio Repair

Concrete patios can develop cracks, chipped edges, surface wear, settlement, discoloration, and other forms of damage over time.

Patio repair may be appropriate when the majority of the slab remains in usable condition and the damage is limited to specific areas.

Repairs can include crack filling, patching, surface restoration, joint repair, edge repair, leveling, or replacing isolated sections of concrete.

The best repair method depends on the cause and severity of the damage.

For example, a small surface crack may require a different solution than a patio section that has dropped because of soil movement underneath.

Addressing patio damage early can help prevent water intrusion and additional deterioration.

Concrete Patio Replacement

When an existing patio has widespread cracking, major settlement, severe surface deterioration, or multiple failed repairs, complete replacement may be the better option.

Concrete patio replacement generally involves removing the existing slab, inspecting and preparing the underlying base, and installing a new concrete surface.

Replacing an old patio also creates an opportunity to improve the design.

The patio can be enlarged, reshaped, repositioned, or upgraded with decorative features.

Drainage problems may also be corrected during replacement by adjusting the slope of the new concrete.

Homeowners may choose to replace an older plain concrete patio with stamped concrete, colored concrete, decorative borders, or another customized finish.

Stamped Concrete Patios

Stamped concrete is a popular option for homeowners who want the appearance of natural stone, slate, brick, or pavers while maintaining a poured concrete surface.

During installation, patterns are pressed into the fresh concrete before it fully hardens.

Stamped concrete patios are available in a wide range of patterns and layouts.

Popular designs may imitate:

Natural stone
Flagstone
Slate
Brick
Cobblestone
Wood plank patterns
Large-format stone
Custom geometric patterns

Color can also be added to enhance the stamped design and create more depth in the finished surface.

Stamped concrete can be used across the entire patio or as a decorative feature around borders, seating areas, outdoor kitchens, or other sections.

Finishes & Color

Make Your Patio a Design Feature

Decorative finishes and color turn a plain slab into part of your home's outdoor design.

Decorative Concrete Patios

Decorative concrete allows a patio to be designed as an architectural feature instead of simply a plain slab.

Decorative options can include custom patterns, saw-cut designs, textured finishes, borders, multiple colors, exposed aggregate, staining, stamping, and combinations of different finishes.

A decorative concrete patio can be coordinated with the exterior of the home, surrounding landscaping, retaining walls, walkways, or pool areas.

Borders can also be used to visually separate different outdoor spaces.

For example, a large backyard patio may include one finish around the dining area and another around a fire pit or outdoor kitchen.

Decorative concrete provides flexibility for both traditional and modern outdoor designs.

Colored Concrete Patios

Colored concrete can give a patio a warmer or more customized appearance.

Instead of standard gray concrete, homeowners can choose from a variety of tones designed to complement the home and landscape.

Popular color families may include:

Color can sometimes be incorporated into the concrete itself or applied through certain surface treatment systems.

Colored concrete can also be combined with stamped patterns, decorative borders, exposed aggregate, or custom scoring.

Because concrete color may appear different depending on lighting, moisture, curing, and finishing techniques, selecting a suitable tone is an important part of the design process.

Backyard Concrete Patios

A backyard concrete patio can create a dedicated area for relaxing, entertaining, cooking, or spending time outdoors.

Patios can be designed around the way the backyard will actually be used.

A smaller patio may provide enough space for a table and chairs, while a larger patio can support multiple activity zones.

A backyard patio may include space for:

Outdoor dining
Patio furniture
Barbecue grills
Outdoor kitchens
Fire pits
Pergolas
Hot tubs
Lounge areas
Planters
Outdoor fireplaces

The layout should also consider access from the home, nearby doors, walkways, lawn areas, and drainage.

A properly planned patio can help connect the home with the rest of the backyard.

Covered concrete patio with a wood ceiling, fan, and outdoor dining table

Covered Patio Concrete

Concrete is commonly used as the foundation for covered patios, pergolas, porch covers, and outdoor living areas.

A covered patio slab should be designed around the structure that will be installed above it.

This may involve planning the location of support posts, footings, drainage, electrical features, or other structural elements.

Covered patio concrete can be finished in many different ways.

A smooth or decorative finish can help create a more finished indoor-outdoor appearance, while stamped or colored concrete can make the space feel more integrated with the home.

Covered patios may be used for dining areas, outdoor kitchens, seating spaces, entertainment areas, or protected backyard gathering spaces.

Poolside concrete patio with lounge chairs and palm trees

Poolside Concrete Patios

Concrete is also widely used around swimming pools because it can create a continuous outdoor surface around the pool area.

Poolside concrete patios can provide room for lounge chairs, dining furniture, umbrellas, and outdoor entertaining.

The surface should be planned with drainage and regular exposure to water in mind.

Texture is also an important consideration around pool areas.

Certain finishes can provide more surface texture than highly polished concrete.

Poolside patio designs may include:

Broom-finished concrete
Decorative concrete
Stamped concrete
Colored concrete
Exposed aggregate
Decorative borders

The patio can also be designed to coordinate with the pool coping, nearby walkways, landscaping, and other backyard features.

More Room Outdoors

Concrete Patio Extensions

A patio that once provided enough space may eventually feel too small.

Concrete patio extensions can increase the usable outdoor area without necessarily replacing the entire existing patio.

Extensions can be added to one or more sides of the current slab to create more room for seating, dining, outdoor cooking, or entertaining.

The new concrete should be carefully planned in relation to the existing surface.

Important considerations include elevation, slope, drainage, expansion joints, landscaping, and how the old and new concrete will visually connect.

A patio extension can be finished to resemble the existing concrete as closely as possible or designed as a contrasting decorative feature.

For example, a plain concrete patio may be expanded with a stamped border or a separate decorative seating area.

Planning the Right Concrete Patio

Every property requires a slightly different approach.

The right patio design depends on available space, how the area will be used, existing structures, drainage, landscaping, and the desired appearance.

Some homeowners may want a simple backyard slab for patio furniture, while others may prefer a complete outdoor living area with decorative concrete, multiple seating zones, and custom features.

Planning these elements in advance can help create a patio that works well with the rest of the property.

Plan My Patio

Before installation, it is useful to consider:

Patio size
Shape and layout
Drainage
Access from the home
Furniture placement
Outdoor kitchens
Fire pits
Pool access
Covered structures
Landscaping
Decorative finishes
Future expansion

Patio FAQs

Concrete Patio Questions, Answered

Most residential patios take a few days to about a week from excavation to the final finish, depending on size, layout, site access, and decorative work. Stamped or colored patios usually take a little longer than a standard broom finish. After the pour, you can typically walk on the patio within a day or two and place furniture after about a week. We give you a clear schedule before work begins.

Yes. We can add new concrete to one or more sides of your current patio to create more room for seating, dining, or an outdoor kitchen. We plan the elevation, slope, and joints so the old and new concrete connect properly and water drains away from your home. The extension can be finished to closely match the existing patio or designed as a stamped or decorative accent.

Stamped concrete is a popular patio choice in Los Angeles because it gives the look of stone, slate, brick, or pavers with the strength of a poured slab. It holds up well in our dry, sunny climate when installed and sealed correctly. Resealing every few years helps protect the color and surface. We can show you pattern and color options that fit your home and backyard.

Around a pool, you want a finish with good texture so the surface is less slippery when wet. Broom finishes, exposed aggregate, and textured stamped concrete are common choices, while highly polished concrete is usually avoided outdoors. Lighter colors can also help the surface stay more comfortable underfoot in the sun. We plan the slope so water drains away from the pool and your home.

Patio pricing depends on the size, shape, site preparation, removal of old concrete, reinforcement, and the finish you choose. As a general guide, standard concrete patios often fall around $8 to $16 per square foot, while stamped, colored, or decorative patios cost more. Covered patio slabs with footings may add to the cost. We provide a free on-site estimate with a clear, detailed written quote.
