Patios

Imagine this a patio fully decorated with comfortable longing chairs and decorative tables that has an amazing view of either your pool or the garden you spend so much time working on. Now that is relaxing. Since a patio is basically an open space, the best thing you can do to make sure it looks beautiful is to use great flooring. Here, there are so many options that you can choose from. There is wood, which is a very common choice, you can also use bricks or marble. Then there is concrete. At Southlake Concrete Contractors, we are concrete enthusiasts, so you shouldn’t be surprised that concrete is our most preferred option for patios (and literally everything else, it is literally in the name). Here are reasons you should make concrete your number one option for the construction of your patios.

Stylistic Versatility
Patios made with other materials generally have a bland and straightforward look to them. The only ways you can make wooden patios more aesthetically pleasing is to be creative with the use of the sealant. Basically it is the same thing with other materials like gravel and lime stones. While these may be quick, cheap options, your stylistic options are limited, especially when it comes to color. With concrete, the options are basically nebulous. With Concrete, you have a wide range of stylistic options you can choose from when selecting the finish of a patio. It doesn’t matter how low your budget is, you can still find a way to come out with something that is pleasing to the eyes. If you hire us for our patio construction services, we will go the extra mile to make sure it is presented in a manner that is aesthetically pleasing to you. Call us today to find out more.

Cost
Now with cost, things are very tricky. The cost of a typical; concrete patio is less than a wooden patio or one made with paving stones. However, with concrete patios, the long lasting effects of the material make it a more cost effective option on the long run. This is because concrete patios are very durable. This way, you get to save a lot of money on maintenance endeavours in the future. Also, studies have shown that houses concrete patios have a higher resale value than houses with patios made using other materials. So if you are looking to put your house on the market sooner or later, you should put this into consideration. You can give us a call today to find out more.

Maintenance
Concrete Patios and wooden decks basically have similar maintenance processes. They have to be regularly maintained to prevent the damage that may be caused by the elements. When it comes to cost and effort, both materials are very much different when it comes to maintenance. Wooden patios need to be sealed every once in a while. They also will also need to be power washed and sanded. Why do you have to go through all of that if you have a better option. Call us today to get a quote.
