Concrete Patios & Flatwork

Concrete — Poured Before the Fence Goes Around It

A patio and a fence are one project pretending to be two. The concrete needs open access for the mix and the tools; the fence needs to close the yard back up. We pour, finish, and seal the flatwork, then set the fence around it — same crew, same schedule, no gap where two companies blame each other for the mess.

  • Stamped, stained, and sealed finishes

Flatwork that gets sequenced with the rest of the yard

Patios, walkways, and pads poured and finished across Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, and Suffolk — planned around the fence line instead of into it.

Talk through the layout first. Call (757) 703-7030.

Patios and walkways

Poured, finished, and edged where you actually use the yard — off the back door, around the grill, out to the gate.

Stamped and stained

Pattern pressed in while the slab is workable, then stained and sealed. Stone and plank looks without laying stone piece by piece.

Pads that hold weight

Pads for sheds, canopies, hot tubs, and AC units — sized and thickened for what is actually going to sit on them.

Poured before the posts

Concrete first while the yard is still open, fence after. It keeps a finished fence from being pulled apart for equipment access.

Grading underneath

Slabs need the ground under them right and the water pointed away. and drainage handled as part of the same job.

Cleared and cleaned up

Stumps and roots in the way get first. Forms, spoil, and washout leave with the crew.

Concrete pads and slab work

Not every pour is a patio. Equipment pads, canopy footings, and slab work get the same prep and finish.

Concrete Patio FAQs

Can you pour the patio and build the fence in the same project?

Yes, and the order matters. Concrete goes down first while there is still open access for the mix and the tools, then the fence goes in around it. Doing it the other way means tearing out a section of finished fence to get equipment into the yard.

What is stamped concrete?

Concrete that gets a pattern pressed into it while it is still workable, so a poured slab can read as stone, brick, or plank. It is finished and sealed like any other slab, and it is patterned in place rather than laid piece by piece.

How long before we can walk on it?

Foot traffic is usually fine in a couple of days, but concrete keeps curing for weeks. We tell you at the pour when to stay off it, when furniture can go back, and when it is ready to be sealed.
