Decorative Concrete Design & Build
Our goal is simple: select a decorative concrete option that elevates the aesthetic of your home.
What is Decorative Concrete?
It involves various techniques such as staining or stamping to create unique patterns, textures, and colors in concrete. Essentially, it’s about turning plain concrete into a stylish and aesthetically pleasing element.
Opting for decorative concrete on your patio, pool deck, or driveway enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of your outdoor space while providing practical benefits. Unlike traditional plain concrete, decorative concrete offers a wide range of customizable design options with various textures, patterns, and colors. Beyond its visual appeal, decorative concrete is durable and budget-friendly, providing a stylish yet practical solution for high-traffic areas. It transforms outdoor spaces into inviting and visually stunning areas for relaxation and entertainment.

Where We Install Decorative Concrete
Driveway
A decorative concrete driveway can take the curb appeal of your home in so many different directions. Regardless of the direction you choose, it will provide an enhancement to your already beautiful existing home.
Pool Deck
When installing a new pool deck or replacing one that’s in disrepair, accenting your space with a decorative concrete deck is often the most cost-efficient method available in our Texas markets.
Patio
The patio flooring is generally the place where you’ll spend the most time outside and getting it right can make all the difference. A decorative concrete patio can change the emotion each time you step out your backdoor.
Walkway
In terms of “bang for your buck”, adding a decorative concrete walkway can provide about as much value as anything else you could choose to improve in the front portion of your home.
Decorative Concrete Installation Process
1. Surface Prep
While the surface may be altered; the excavation, forming, elevations and raw materials will remain largely unchanged.
2. Tailoring
Each decorative concrete offering has a place in the market and our goal is to determine what fits best in your space.
3. Crafting
All decorative surfaces aren’t created equal and our time-tested artistic techniques will ensure we achieve your desired aesthetic.
4. Walkthrough
Decorative surfaces all require some degree of maintenance and we’ll talk in great detail about what’s necessary moving forward.
Decorative Concrete Costs
There are many site-specific variables to consider before an accurate price can be determined. We’ll need to understand if an existing material is being demoed, how much excavation is required, the depth of the slab, and whether there are sprinkler or utility lines that we’ll need to work around. All of that needs to be addressed before we even begin addressing the decorative solution and final aesthetic you’ll select. Once all of those items have been nailed down, we’re generally able to provide you with a comprehensive estimate at our initial consultation.
