Patios and Decks
Patios and decks make your backyard a destination in their own right and extend your living space outdoors for you, your family, and your friends. So whether you're entertaining guests or just chilling with your folks a concrete patio or deck makes the perfect low maintenance space to bring a bit of extra life to your home life.
Why Concrete? Concrete is the traditional choice for patios and decks and with good reason. It can look any way you want it with patterns and stains to give it the look you desire. It flows around any shape or unusual feature and can easily incorporate natural rocks or blend in with water features. Unlike wood decks concrete won't rot and warp with continued exposure to wind, sun, and rain. It's cheaper than pavers and less maintenance with a surface that is less likely to harbor mold or algae. It's also way more versatile than you think as our skilled concrete craftsmen can give that concrete any look or texture you want which means a unique surface to bring together the people you care for to enjoy the best times. Firepits and Outdoor Kitchens Firepits immediately add color, light, heat, and atmosphere to any patio or deck. The flexibility of concrete means that it can be used to create large permanent installations or lightweight movable firepits like bowls or urns. Because it's concrete it is automatically low maintenance and durable and can be supplied with a number of fire systems including traditional wood burning or a lightweight gas unit that makes lighting a fire, even after a season of disuse, no more difficult than flicking a switch. Of course long time exposure to extreme heat can cause problems with any material, including concrete, from the expansion and contraction but that's why you hire the pros who will design and pour a concrete base for your firepit that is specifically designed to withstand the heat and resist cracking. Outdoor Kitchens are a logical extension of the idea that you are living your best life outdoors and we can create sunken kitchens or weatherproof outside islands for everything from a humble barbecue area to a full on outdoor kitchen sophisticated enough for a pro chef. We'll pour the concrete, you bring the chef's hat. Poolsides Another area where concrete is a natural is the poolside which often flows naturally into your patio or deck. The key thing here is that we can design your poolside so that it has non slip surfaces where you need it and discrete drainage so that splashes don't just linger and become slip hazards and mold havens but are drained smoothly away. Poolsides can be any color you like and styled with textures and effects to incorporate natural rocks and lighting features. Stains and Sealants Ask us about our rainbow range of stains to provide patios, decks, and poolsides with a splash of color or to harmonize with your property. We also seal our concrete to ensure that even though it's exposed to the weather it will last long and look great. |
