Services
Stamped Concrete
Stamped concrete transforms ordinary surfaces into elegant designs mimicking stone, brick, or cobblestone. Our team applies this technique to patios, driveways, and pool decks using durable, slip-resistant materials. Custom patterns and colors ensure a unique aesthetic that complements your homes architecture while providing long-lasting durability against Indianas weather cycles.
Outdoor Kitchens
We design and build custom outdoor kitchens with built-in grills, countertops, and storage. These spaces integrate seamlessly with stamped concrete patios or hardscapes, offering functional entertainment areas. High-quality materials withstand weather exposure, and our designs prioritize workflow efficiency and aesthetic cohesion with existing outdoor environments.
Pergolas & Arbors
Custom pergolas and arbors add shade and architectural interest to gardens or patios. Constructed from durable wood, these structures support climbing plants and create defined outdoor living zones. Our designs balance open and covered elements to regulate sunlight while enhancing property curb appeal through tailored dimensions and finishes.
Outdoor Fireplaces
We build gas or wood-burning fireplaces using brick or stone, designed for year-round use. These features extend outdoor usability during cooler months, combining warmth with ambient lighting. Custom options include built-in seating and weather-resistant materials to ensure structural integrity and visual appeal in any season.
Exposed Aggregate
Exposed aggregate finishes reveal decorative stones within concrete surfaces, offering slip-resistant textures for driveways and walkways. This method combines durability with visual interest, using natural materials to create patterns that resist fading or wear. The result is a low-maintenance surface that enhances property aesthetics while maintaining functional safety standards.
Questions
What concrete thickness do you recommend for patios and driveways?
We specify 4 inches for patios/walkways and 5 inches for driveways, reinforced with steel rebar and fiber mesh for durability.
How do you prevent concrete cracking?
We use control joints, proper base compaction, and reinforcement while following industry standards to minimize cracking risks.
Why use both fiber mesh and steel rods in concrete?
Fiber mesh prevents shrinkage cracks, while steel rods provide structural integrity against Indiana’s freeze/thaw cycles.
How long do stamped concrete colors last?
Integral colors last a lifetime; surface color hardeners with sealer maintain vibrancy for 10+ years with proper care.
Can snow removal damage stamped concrete?
Raise snowplows 1 inch above surfaces and use plastic shovels to avoid scratching stamped patterns or sealers.
Do you offer sealer maintenance products?
Yes, we sell high-solid sealers and provide application guidance to protect hardscape investments long-term.
