Concrete Patios in Cornelius, NC — A Solid Slab That Does Not Crack Apart

Concrete is the simplest outdoor surface to live with, and the easiest to get wrong. On Cornelius clay, slabs crack and settle when the base is thin or the joints are missing. We build the base like the slab depends on it, because it does.

When You Need Concrete Patios

You need a new patio when the back yard has no usable flat surface, when an existing slab is cracked, pitched toward the house, or sinking at one corner, or when a hot tub or grill needs a stable pad. Trip edges where slabs have heaved are worth fixing quickly. Our clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry, so a slab poured on unprepared ground moves with the seasons until it breaks.

Our Concrete Patios Process

We lay out the shape and confirm drainage away from the house, then excavate and compact a crushed stone base. Forms are set to grade, reinforcement is placed, and we pour at the right thickness for the use. We finish the surface to the texture you chose, cut control joints at proper spacing so cracking happens where it is hidden, and cure it correctly. We pull permits where Cornelius requires them. Most patios take two to four days including cure time before use.

Concrete Patios Cost in Cornelius
