Think function and fashion. Function wise 3000 psi mix is the standard. We prefer to pour 4000 psi on our residential projects to enhance the quality of the product. More durable to be sure. Fashion wise we can offer you decorative concrete colors and finishings. From exposed aggregate to stamped to color, we have it all.

We suggest you get a working budget and plan together for your project. Then consult with multiple contractors after evaluating their digital presence. Choose experience over exciting sales pitch. Choose value over bait and switch tactics. If all is even, then choose a contractor that you belive will bring to life the vision you and your family have worked so hard for.
