Stamped & Decorative Concrete
Stamped patios, walkways and decorative floors with the look of flagstone, slate or brick.
01Overview
Stone looks. Concrete strength.
Stamped concrete gives you the look of natural stone or brick in one continuous slab, with no individual pavers to settle and no weeds pushing up between joints. It suits patios, pool decks, walkways and entries.
We help you choose a pattern and color, then pour and texture the slab while it is still workable. A sealer brings out the color and protects the surface. The same skills carry indoors to decorative floors and medallions.

05Questions
Stamped & Decorative Concrete: common questions
Don’t see yours? Ask us directly or browse the full FAQ.
How does stamped concrete compare to pavers?
Stamped concrete is one continuous slab, so nothing shifts or sprouts weeds, but it needs resealing every few years. Pavers are individual units that can settle but are easy to spot-repair. We break it down in our Field Notes article on the topic.
Does stamped concrete need maintenance?
Plan on resealing every two to three years, depending on sun and traffic. Resealing keeps the color deep and protects the surface from water and de-icers.
Is it slippery?
Sealed concrete can be slick when wet. On pool decks, steps and waterfront patios we can add a slip-resistant additive to the sealer.
