Concrete Patios

Why Choose Concrete for Your Patio?

Your backyard should be a place where you can relax, entertain, and make memories. A concrete patio gives you a solid foundation for outdoor furniture, grills, and gatherings without worrying about uneven ground or constant maintenance. Here in Fontana, where the sun shines most of the year, a well-built patio becomes an extension of your home.

We have been building patios for homeowners throughout Fontana since 2024, and we know what works in our climate. Hot summers and occasional rain mean your patio needs to handle temperature changes without cracking. That is why we focus on proper site preparation, quality materials, and proven installation methods.

Benefits of a Concrete Patio

Professional concrete installation offers advantages that other materials cannot match. Here is what makes concrete the smart choice for your outdoor space:

• Durability that lasts decades with minimal maintenance
• Design flexibility with stamped patterns, colors, and textures
• Cost-effective compared to pavers or natural stone
• Low maintenance that saves you time and money
• Increases your property value and curb appeal
• Resistant to fire, pests, and rot unlike wood decks
• Stays cooler in summer with the right finish options

Our Patio Installation Process

We start by meeting with you to understand how you plan to use your patio. Are you looking for a simple space for a table and chairs, or do you want a larger entertainment area with room for a fire pit and seating? Your vision guides our design recommendations.

Site Preparation and Grading

Proper drainage is critical for any patio. We grade the site to ensure water flows away from your home, preventing pooling and potential foundation issues. We excavate to the correct depth, compact the soil, and add a gravel base that provides stability and drainage.

Pouring and Finishing

We use quality concrete mixed to the right specifications for our local climate. Our team pours, levels, and finishes your patio to create a smooth, even surface. If you choose stamped or decorative options, we apply patterns and colors while the concrete is still workable. The finishing process affects both the look and the texture of your patio.

Curing and Protection

Proper curing is what separates a patio that lasts from one that cracks too soon. We protect the fresh concrete and allow adequate curing time before you start using it. This patience pays off with a stronger, longer-lasting surface.

Design Options for Your Space

Your patio should match your home and your style. We offer several finish options from basic broom finish to decorative stamped patterns that mimic stone, brick, or tile. Color can be added to the concrete mix or applied to the surface for a custom look.

Many Fontana homeowners combine a standard concrete patio with decorative borders or masonry walls to create defined spaces. We can integrate steps, planters, or seating walls into the design to maximize your outdoor living area.
