4 Reasons to Get a Concrete Patio

4 Reasons to Get a Concrete Patio

A concrete patio offers you everything you want — and you don’t have to spend a lot of time and energy on maintenance and care.

Over the years, this material has changed a lot. With glossy seal coats, your concrete can easily look like stone or tile.

It comes in dozens of colors and shapes. However, a concrete patio has many more benefits than just its designer look. Why should you install one at your home?

 

1. It’s affordable

When calculating labor, material and design costs, concrete is one of the most affordable options for patio installation. You can get a beautiful patio at a fraction of the cost, without losing out on quality or appearance.

In fact, stamped concrete is often mistaken for stone or other costlier materials.

An added bonus is that your affordable concrete will help increase your home value as well.

2. Durable

Another way that concrete beats other materials is in its ability to withstand heavy traffic and weather. You can put a hot tub or an above-ground pool on your concrete patio without having to worry if it will rot or break.

3. Easy to Maintain

Because of concrete’s durable nature, it’s incredibly easy and affordable to maintain. Occasionally, you’ll want to pressure wash it to get the dirt and mud off, but for the most part, that’s all you’ll need to do.

However, if the foundation underneath the concrete begins to shift, you’ll need to call a patio-leveling team. Our team at Lift Up Concrete can help you with this.

Concrete lifting will also help your patio last longer.

4. Quick to Install

You don’t generally need a permit to install a concrete patio. In addition, they are quick to install. Within a week, a contractor can lay the foundation and the concrete on top of it.
