We often encounter backyard spaces that are unused for a variety of reasons. A lot of the time it’s hard to get grass to grow with dogs tearing the up the area or having lots of foot traffic from kids playing outside, etc. This outdoor space to the right had the issues listed above in addition to not draining water properly.
We were able to excavate the area and use our laser level to make sure that our surface elevations allowed water to drain properly off of the new patio space. We are very fast on these small projects. We were able to transform their backyard in only 3 working days over the course of a normal 5 day work week. This will provide plenty of area for a table and chairs and a grill to entertain friends. In addition we added a sidewalk around the Florida room to a very small existing patio adding functionality to their current features. Stamped concrete offers a competitive price coupled with the most durable, low maintenance surface that money can buy.

The Decorative Concrete Experts of Orlando are your source for professional installation of stamped concrete. When you are looking to add Stamped Concrete to your home or business, it is best to start by looking at the basic construction of the building that the concrete will be accenting. The key to this process is by choosing a surface that will complement the structure, not try to match it. For instance, on a brick home it may be a good choice to implement a brick border on your driveway or walkway but not necessarily install a solid stamped brick pattern. With stamped concrete, incorporating the right color is just as important as choosing the right pattern. Again, the key is not to match but to use hues from the building or complementary tones into the stamping work.
Looking at stamped concrete patterns can be overwhelming. This is where in can be beneficial to talk to a stamped concrete installer. A quality installer will own as many as five or ten popular patterns and will know which ones will work with your project. An installer that owns many sets of stamp mats is serious about this business because these sets are very expensive to purchase. Ask a stamped concrete contractor that you’re meeting with to bring by some common mats that they own to see if any will suit your needs. If the contractor rents his/her stamping mats, it may be best to steer clear.
When the stamped concrete is part of a building remodel or larger landscape project, it can be helpful to get input from the architect or landscape designer. There are lots of online sources for stamped concrete ideas if you are lost. We are a certified installer for Increte Systems and can help you implement any of their products in your project.
