Concrete Patios
Transform your outdoor space with a custom concrete patio built to last.
Why Choose Concrete for Your Patio
Your backyard should be more than just grass and dirt. A concrete patio gives you a clean, stable surface where you can set up furniture, fire pits, grills, or whatever else you need to enjoy time outdoors. Here in Compton, where the sun shines most of the year, having a durable patio means you can actually use your yard without worrying about mud, weeds, or uneven ground.
We build concrete patios in Compton, CA that handle the heat, occasional rain, and daily use without cracking or sinking. Unlike pavers that shift over time or wood that rots and splinters, concrete stays put and stays strong. You get a surface that looks good and works hard for decades.
What Makes a Great Patio
A patio is only as good as the work that goes into it before the concrete is poured. We start by grading the area to make sure water drains away from your house. Then we excavate to the right depth, compact the soil, and add a solid gravel base. This prevents the patio from settling unevenly or cracking under pressure.
Here is what every quality concrete patio needs:
- •Proper slope: Water should flow off the patio, not pool on it
- •Reinforcement: Rebar or wire mesh keeps the slab from cracking under stress
- •Control joints: These planned grooves let concrete expand and contract without random cracks
- •Quality finish: Smooth or textured, depending on what you want and how you will use the space
- •Adequate thickness: At least 4 inches for residential patios, more if you plan heavy furniture or fire features
When you work with stamped and decorative concrete experts, you also get options for color, texture, and pattern. A standard gray slab works fine, but you can also choose finishes that look like stone, brick, or tile if you want something more custom.
How We Build Your Patio
We take the time to do things right. That means showing up on time, explaining what we are doing at each step, and making sure you are happy with the final result. Here is how the process works:
Step 1: Site Prep and Layout
We measure and mark the patio area, then excavate to the proper depth. The ground gets leveled and compacted so nothing shifts later.
Step 2: Base and Forms
A layer of compacted gravel goes down to create a stable base. We set wooden or metal forms around the edges to hold the concrete in place while it cures.
Step 3: Pour and Finish
Fresh concrete is poured, spread evenly, and finished to your chosen texture. Control joints are cut, and the surface is sealed if needed.
Step 4: Cure and Protect
Concrete needs time to reach full strength. We protect the slab during curing and let you know when it is safe to use.
If you also need concrete walkways to connect your patio to other parts of your yard, we can handle that in the same visit. Everything gets built to the same high standard.
