Concrete Patios in Austin, TX

A concrete patio is the foundation of outdoor living in Central Texas — and in Austin's climate, that means a surface that handles blazing summers, periodic hard freezes, and everything in between. Professionally poured concrete outlasts pavers (which shift and settle), wood decks (which require constant upkeep in Texas humidity), and gravel (which migrates). A well-designed patio adds livable square footage to your home at a fraction of what an indoor addition costs per square foot.

The range of concrete patio finishes available goes far beyond the plain gray slab most people picture. Stamped concrete patios replicate slate, flagstone, travertine, wood plank, and brick at a lower cost than the natural materials themselves. Acid-stained concrete creates a marbled, translucent color effect that's entirely unique — no two acid-stained slabs look exactly alike. Exposed aggregate offers a textured, slip-resistant surface popular around pools. Broom-finish remains the most budget-friendly option and still looks intentional when properly bordered and sealed.

Drainage is the most overlooked element in patio design and the one that causes the most problems down the road. We slope every patio a minimum of 1/8 inch per foot away from the house foundation — a pitch that's invisible underfoot but critical in a heavy Texas rain. Every patio we install is sealed with a commercial-grade, UV-stable acrylic or polyurethane sealer that protects the surface and locks in color. We provide written maintenance instructions with every job, including the specific sealer product used so you can source matching material for future re-applications.
