Concrete Patios
Create a beautiful outdoor living space with a custom concrete patio designed for your home in North Augusta, SC.
Why Concrete Is the Best Material for Your Patio
Your backyard should be a place where you can relax, grill out, and spend time with family. A concrete patio gives you a solid, flat surface that holds up to weather, furniture, grills, and foot traffic without the constant upkeep that wood decks demand. No staining, no sealing every year, no boards rotting out or warping in the humidity.
Concrete patios are incredibly versatile. You can go with a clean, modern broom finish for a simple look or choose stamped and colored concrete to create something that looks like natural stone or brick. Either way, you get a surface that lasts 25 to 30 years with very little maintenance. Just an occasional wash with a garden hose is usually all it takes to keep it looking great.
At Advanced North Augusta Concrete, we design and build patios that fit your yard, your lifestyle, and your budget. We work with you to figure out the right size, shape, and finish. Whether you want a small sitting area off the back door or a large entertainment space with built-in seating walls, we can make it happen. Our team handles everything from layout and grading to forming, pouring, and finishing.
We serve homeowners all across North Augusta and surrounding areas like Augusta, Aiken, Evans, and Martinez. Give us a call at (803) 991-5033 to schedule a free estimate and see how a new patio can change the way you use your backyard.
Patio Design Options to Match Your Style
One of the biggest advantages of concrete is the range of finishes available. You are not stuck with a plain gray slab. Here are some popular options our customers choose:
- Broom finish provides a textured, slip-resistant surface that works great around pools and in wet areas. It is the most budget-friendly option.
- Stamped concrete uses patterns pressed into wet concrete to mimic the look of natural stone, slate, brick, or tile at a fraction of the cost.
- Colored concrete uses integral pigments mixed throughout or surface-applied stains to give your patio a warm, custom appearance.
- Exposed aggregate reveals the natural stones within the concrete mix for a decorative, textured surface with excellent traction.
- Smooth trowel finish creates a sleek, modern surface ideal for covered patios and outdoor dining areas.
Want to take it a step further? We also offer stamped and decorative concrete services that can turn a simple patio into a real showpiece. You can mix colors and patterns to create borders, medallions, or custom designs that make your outdoor space truly unique.
How We Build a Patio That Lasts for Decades
A concrete patio is only as good as the prep work underneath it. We start by laying out the patio footprint and making sure the grade slopes away from your house so rainwater drains properly. Poor drainage is the number one reason patios settle and crack, and we make sure it is handled correctly from day one.
Next, we excavate the area and compact the soil. On top of that, we add a layer of crushed gravel and compact it again. This creates a rock-solid base that prevents shifting and settling over time. We then set up forms to define the exact shape and edges of your patio, making sure everything is level and square.
The pour itself is where experience really matters. Our crew works quickly and efficiently to place, spread, and finish the concrete before it begins to set. We cut control joints at the right intervals to manage natural expansion and contraction. Once the finish is applied, we add a quality curing compound to protect the surface while it hardens over the next four weeks.
The result is a patio that handles heat, rain, and daily wear without flinching.

Frequently Asked Questions About Concrete Patios
How much does a concrete patio cost?
The cost of a concrete patio depends on the size, thickness, finish type, and how much site prep is needed. A basic broom-finished patio is the most affordable option, while stamped or colored concrete costs more due to extra materials and labor. We provide free, detailed quotes so you know exactly what everything costs before we start. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. Call us and we will come out to measure your space and walk through the options with you.
How long will my concrete patio last?
A properly installed concrete patio can last 25 to 30 years or more. The key factors are base preparation, concrete thickness, reinforcement, and proper curing. We build every patio with these priorities in mind. Resealing the surface every few years can extend its life even further and keep the color looking fresh. Compared to wood decks that may need replacing every 10 to 15 years, concrete is a much better long-term investment for your outdoor space.
Can you build a patio over my existing concrete slab?
In some cases, yes. If your existing slab is structurally sound and level, we can apply a concrete overlay with a decorative finish on top. However, if the old slab is cracked, sinking, or poorly drained, it is usually better to remove it and start fresh. We will inspect your current patio and give you an honest recommendation. Overlays are a great option when the base is solid because they save time and reduce costs while still giving you a brand-new look.
