Our Concrete Installation Process

1. Consultation and Estimate

We discuss the location, size, layout, finish, drainage requirements, and intended use of the area.

2. Site Preparation

The area is excavated and prepared with a properly compacted base to create a stable foundation.

3. Forming and Reinforcement

Forms are installed to create the required shape and slope. Reinforcement is added where appropriate.

4. Concrete Placement

The concrete is poured, levelled, and finished according to the selected design.

5. Finishing and Curing

Control joints are added where required, and the concrete is allowed to cure properly for long-term performance.

Patio and Sidewalk Finishes

Choose a finish that complements your home and outdoor space.

Broom Finish

A practical, slip-resistant finish commonly used for sidewalks, walkways, and patios.

Exposed Aggregate

A decorative finish that reveals the natural texture and colour of the stone within the concrete.

Smooth or Trowel Finish

A cleaner, more refined appearance for selected applications.

Decorative Borders

Borders, curves, and customized shapes can create a more distinctive finished design.

Frequently Asked Questions

How thick should a concrete patio or sidewalk be?

The required thickness depends on the intended use, soil conditions, reinforcement, and site preparation. Most residential patios and sidewalks are commonly installed at approximately four inches, but every project should be assessed individually.

Can you replace an existing cracked patio or sidewalk?

Yes. Existing damaged concrete can be removed before the new area is prepared and poured.

How long before I can walk on new concrete?

Light foot traffic is often possible after approximately 24 to 48 hours, depending on the weather and concrete conditions. Full curing takes considerably longer.

Will the concrete crack?

All concrete has the potential to crack. Proper base preparation, reinforcement, drainage, concrete placement, and control joints help reduce and manage cracking.

Can you create curved patios and sidewalks?

Yes. Concrete can be formed into straight, curved, and custom layouts depending on the property and design.

Do you install exposed aggregate patios?

Yes. Exposed aggregate is a popular option for patios, sidewalks, and other decorative outdoor concrete surfaces.
