Three Ways to Redo Your Patio With Stamped Concrete

When you decide to makeover your patio, you may have your heart set on a stone patio, perhaps with a cobblestone path leading to it. However, natural stone can be pricy. There are still ways for you to get that gorgeous patio, though—stamped concrete. It comes in many patterns, allowing you to get the look you want at half the price. Here are three of your possible options.

1. Stone

You may choose a stamp in several different stone patterns, cobbled or interlocking. After it’s been poured and stamped, your concrete is treated so that it looks even more like actual stone. The cracks will usually be accented and some areas may be treated so that they look weathered.

2. Wood

Concrete slabs may also be stamped with a wood pattern. These stamps can make your concrete look like new pine boards or like old, weathered planks. If you prefer patterned wood, there are also stamps that impress planked tiles into your concrete so that it has the look of a parquet floor.

3. Custom Stamps

Concrete slabs offer an opportunity to be creative, as well. You may impress your favorite team’s logo into your patio or a type of medallion. There also smaller stamps of leaves and footprints, including dinosaur prints, to amuse all your visiting children.

If you’d like to get your dream patio, don’t rule out concrete just yet. Visit this website for more information about stamped concrete in Carlsbad.
