Concrete Patios

Here in Arizona, more often than not, walkways, patios, and driveways are simply poured concrete. Stonework such as travertine or slate adds beauty and adds a little something extra. Of course, the downside to stonework is the cost and availability of materials. However, today there is a wide variety of molds and stamps used with concrete to mimic the look of natural stone at an affordable price.

Choose a concrete stamp pattern and stain color for your new patio that suits your house tying together the overall look you are going for. Today, not only do you have a wide choice of colors there is also a wide variety of finishes and concrete stamps. For those that are unfamiliar with concrete stamping, it is the process of creating patterns in the concrete surface that enhances the look of the patio.
