The back door opens onto grass, sand or a small slab that holds water after every afternoon storm. You want somewhere to put a table and a grill that isn't mud by August.
A concrete patio fixes that. The part that matters most is one you'll never look at: which way the water runs.

Here's what moves your number:
- Size and shape. Square footage drives most of it. Curves and steps add labor.
- An old slab. Tearing out and hauling away old concrete adds to the total.
- Access. A truck that can reach the backyard costs less than a pour that goes in by wheelbarrow.
- Finish. Broom finish costs least. Stamped and stained finishes cost more.
How a concrete patio goes in
- Clear the area. We remove any old concrete and debris before anything is poured.
- Mark the shape. Stakes and string lay out the patio, so you can see the size and shape on the ground before you commit.
- Set the grade. The patio gets sloped so rainwater runs away from the house instead of pooling on the slab or against your wall.
- Pour and finish. The finish you picked goes on (broom, stamped or stained).
- Cure. Industry guidance is to stay off new concrete for at least 24–48 hours (Concrete Network). Ask us before heavy items like a grill go on it. We'll confirm the timing for your job before we start.
Base prep, reinforcement and control joints depend on the patio and the site. We'll talk them through, and anything you specify goes into your written quote.
Don't DIY this one. A patio that drains toward the house is worse than no patio at all.
Plain, stamped or stained?
- Broom finish. Plain concrete with a light texture for grip. It costs least.
- Stamped. A pattern pressed into the wet concrete. It can pass for stone, tile or brick.
- Stained. Color soaked into the concrete, done by our own crew.
Around a pool? See pool decks. Whatever the finish, lighter colors stay cooler under bare feet in a Brevard summer.
Can you add onto an existing patio?
Usually, if the existing slab is solid and level. The new section has to tie into the old one and match its slope, so water still runs away from the house.
If the old patio is cracked or sunken, deal with that first. Otherwise the new section is tied to an old problem. A sunken slab can often be lifted instead of replaced.
One honest note: new concrete won't match the color of a 10-year-old slab right away. A stain or a stamped border can tie them together.
Frequently asked questions
Are these your prices?
No. They're published market estimates, and we list the source. Your actual price comes from a free estimate.
Do you remove the old patio?
Yes. We clear out old concrete and debris before we pour.
How long does a patio take?
It depends on size, finish and weather. We'll give you dates before we start.
Do I need a permit for a patio?
It depends on your city and the scope of the work. If your job needs one, we handle getting it. If you're in an HOA, check its rules first.
Does rain delay the pour?
It can. Weather can affect concrete scheduling, and fresh concrete and an afternoon storm don't mix.
