Concrete Patios
Create an outdoor living space that looks amazing and handles weather, furniture, and daily use.
Why a Concrete Patio Makes Sense
A concrete patio gives you a solid, level outdoor space for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying your yard. Unlike wood decks that rot or pavers that shift and settle, a well-built concrete patio stays level and strong for decades.
Here in Mount Vernon, you need a patio that can handle our rain and temperature swings. Concrete does both. It does not warp like wood or need constant maintenance. Just an occasional wash and seal every few years keeps it looking great.
We have built patios of all sizes across Skagit County. Whether you want a simple slab or an elaborate outdoor kitchen area, we can design and build a patio that fits your yard and your budget.professional concrete services
What Makes a Quality Patio
A great patio starts with proper planning and installation. Here is what we focus on:
Site Evaluation and Grading
We evaluate your yard's slope, drainage, and soil conditions. Then we grade the area so water flows away from your home. Proper drainage prevents water pooling and keeps your patio from settling unevenly.
Base Preparation
We excavate to the right depth, compact the soil, and add a gravel base. This creates a stable foundation that will not shift or settle over time. Skipping this step is where many patio projects go wrong.
Thickness and Reinforcement
For patios, we typically pour 4 inches of concrete with wire mesh or rebar reinforcement. This gives you a strong surface that resists cracking even with heavy furniture and planters.
Finishing Options
You can choose from several finishes. A broom finish is practical and slip-resistant. Stamped or colored concrete adds visual interest. We will show you samples and help you pick the best option for your style.
Patio Design Options
Your patio should match your home and how you use your outdoor space. Here are popular options:
- Basic Slab Patio: A simple, clean concrete slab with a broom or smooth finish. Affordable and timeless, perfect for grills and patio furniture.
- Stamped Concrete Patio: Mimics the look of stone, brick, or tile. You get the durability of concrete with the appearance of more expensive materials.
- Colored and Stained Patios: Add color to match your home or landscaping. Choose from integral color mixed into the concrete or stains applied after.
- Multi-Level Patios: Create different zones with steps and levels. Great for sloped yards or adding visual interest to larger spaces.
- Exposed Aggregate: A textured finish that reveals decorative stones in the concrete. Adds traction and creates a natural, high-end look.
