Concrete Patios
Transform your backyard into an outdoor living space that lasts for decades.
Why Choose a Concrete Patio?
Your backyard should be a place where you can relax, entertain, and enjoy time outdoors. A well-built concrete patio gives you exactly that without the constant upkeep that wood decks demand. Unlike wood that needs staining, sealing, and replacing boards every few years, concrete stands strong through Highland's hot summers and occasional storms with minimal maintenance.
We've installed concrete patios throughout Highland and the surrounding areas for homeowners who want outdoor spaces that handle everyday life. Whether you're setting up patio furniture, hosting barbecues, or letting the kids play outside, your concrete patio will stay level, stable, and looking good year after year.
Patio Design Options
Here's what makes concrete patios so versatile. You get to choose exactly how your patio looks and functions:
- Standard smooth finish: Clean, modern look that's easy to keep clean
- Broom finish: Adds texture and slip resistance for wet conditions
- Stamped patterns: Mimics the look of stone, brick, or tile at a fraction of the cost
- Colored concrete: Integral colors or stains to match your home's style
- Exposed aggregate: Decorative stones create a textured, natural appearance
- Custom borders: Define your space with decorative edging
We'll walk you through all the options and help you pick what works best for how you'll use the space. Want a simple, budget-friendly patio? We can do that. Looking for something with more visual interest? We've got you covered there too.
Our Patio Installation Process
A patio that lasts starts with proper preparation. We don't cut corners on the foundation work because that's what prevents settling, cracking, and drainage problems down the road. Here's how we build every patio: First, we excavate to the right depth and grade the area for proper water runoff. Then we compact a solid base of gravel that won't shift or settle. We install proper forms to define clean edges and ensure the right thickness. After pouring, we work the concrete carefully to eliminate air pockets and achieve a smooth finish. Finally, we apply the finish you've chosen and seal the surface to protect against stains and weather.
The whole process typically takes a few days from start to finish, and you'll be able to walk on your new patio within about a week. We make sure to protect your existing landscaping and leave your yard cleaner than we found it. Need help with your concrete projects in Highland? We handle everything from design to final cleanup.

Low Maintenance, Long-Lasting Results
One of the best things about concrete patios is how little work they need once they're in. You won't spend weekends staining, sanding, or replacing boards like you would with a wood deck. Just sweep off leaves and dirt, rinse it down with a hose occasionally, and maybe reseal it every few years to keep it looking fresh. That's it.
Concrete handles the weather without rotting, warping, or harboring termites. It stays cool underfoot even in summer heat, and it provides a solid, stable surface that won't wobble or creak when you walk on it. For Highland homeowners who want to spend time enjoying their outdoor space instead of maintaining it, concrete makes perfect sense. Looking for other concrete solutions for your property?
