Backyards with poor drainage or soft soil need more base work.

Sealer
Initial sealing is typically included; resealing is periodic maintenance.
Stamped Concrete & Patio FAQ
How long does stamped concrete last?
With a sound base and periodic resealing, a stamped patio can last decades. The color and sheen fade faster without sealer, especially in full sun.
Is stamped concrete slippery?
Sealed stamped concrete can get slick when wet. Adding an anti-slip additive to the sealer helps, especially around pools.
Stamped concrete or pavers?
Stamped concrete is one slab, so weeds and shifting pavers aren't an issue, and it usually costs less upfront. Pavers are easier to repair one section at a time. The contractor can walk you through both for your yard.
How much does a stamped concrete patio cost?
