A concrete patio can enhance a backyard and add value to your home.

THE PROCESS
Concrete patios are prepared in the same manner as other flat work. The patio site is first excavated and prepped with a Class #5 base fill. The walkway is then formed to dimension with rigid steel forms and stakes that prevent bowing.

A bendable material is used to create interesting curves when needed or requested. Reinforced rebar is then placed and tied into its self for added strength and durability. The concrete is typically poured 4-5 inches thick and is hand finished to a non-skid surface. Your new patio is ready for use in 2-3 days.

For a different and more interesting look consider exposed aggregate or colored concrete.
