Why Invest in a Concrete Patio?
Adding a concrete patio is one of the most effective ways to upgrade your outdoor living space. Unlike wood or pavers, concrete offers unmatched strength, easier upkeep, and a clean, timeless look that blends with any home style.
Built to Withstand Texas Weather
Concrete won’t rot, warp, or splinter under heavy sun and everyday use. Reinforced slabs are engineered to handle outdoor furniture, foot traffic, and seasonal temperature swings for decades of performance.
Low-Maintenance Outdoor Living
Unlike pavers that shift or wood that decays, concrete requires only occasional rinsing and resealing. Homeowners save both time and money on upkeep while enjoying a dependable surface.
Boosts Property Value and Appeal
A well-constructed concrete patio expands your living area, improves curb appeal, and adds measurable value to your home.
Tailored to Fit Your Lifestyle
From layout and size to surface finishes, every patio is designed around your property and preferences. Whether you want a simple retreat or space for entertaining, we’ll build a patio that feels like a natural extension of your home.
Our Patio Installation Process
We use a proven process that ensures every patio is strong, well-drained, and visually appealing. Each step is customized to your property’s conditions and your chosen design.
Step 1: Preparation and Grading
We begin by clearing grass, roots, or any old materials from the site. Precision grading directs water away from your home, preventing standing water and protecting the patio over time.
Step 2: Gravel Subbase
A compacted layer of crushed stone is installed beneath the slab. This foundation provides stability, supports drainage, and helps reduce settling.
Step 3: Forming the Layout
Wooden forms are built to match your patio’s exact dimensions. Clean edges and accurate measurements ensure the final layout matches your design vision.
Step 4: Reinforcing the Structure
Steel rebar or wire mesh is placed within the forms to strengthen the slab. This reinforcement helps the patio resist cracking and withstands years of use in Texas weather.
Step 5: Pouring and Finishing the Concrete
High-quality concrete is poured and finished to your specifications. Choices include a textured broom finish for slip resistance, smooth edges for a polished appearance, or stamped patterns for added character.
Step 6: Curing and Final Protection
The concrete is carefully cured to ensure even strength development. When appropriate, we apply a protective sealer that guards against stains, moisture, and surface wear, extending the life of your patio.

Decorative Concrete Patio Finishes
We provide several finishing options that combine durability with style, helping you create a patio that fits both your home and lifestyle. Our team will guide you in choosing the right finish based on appearance, safety, and long-term maintenance.
Broom Finish for Everyday Use
A traditional broom texture adds traction to the surface, making it slip-resistant and family-friendly. It’s a durable, cost-effective choice that works well for homes with kids and pets.
Exposed Aggregate for Natural Appeal
By washing away the top layer of cement, the underlying stone is revealed, creating a textured finish with natural traction. This decorative option blends visual appeal with outdoor durability.
Borders and Inlays for Definition
Custom borders or inlay designs provide contrast and elegance, giving your patio a refined look. They can also help define separate areas, such as dining and lounging spaces.
Stamped Patterns for Style
Stamping replicates the look of stone, brick, or tile at a fraction of the cost. Popular designs include flagstone, cobblestone, ashlar, and even wood grain, giving your patio a custom high-end feel.
Colored Concrete for a Personalized Touch
Concrete can be tinted within the mix or treated with surface stains, offering a wide range of color options. From subtle earthy shades to bold tones, color enhances your patio’s style and complements your home.
Custom Features for Your Concrete Patio
A patio should do more than provide outdoor space, it should fit the way you live and entertain. That’s why we integrate custom features directly into the slab, making your patio more versatile, comfortable, and built around your lifestyle.
Fire Pits and Built-In Seating
We can create recessed fire pit areas or permanent concrete seating that enhance both function and atmosphere. These additions make your patio the perfect spot for evening gatherings year-round.
Patio Extensions and Connecting Walkways
Expand your patio for larger gatherings or connect it to other outdoor areas with matching walkways. This approach improves flow across your property while maintaining a cohesive look.
Outdoor Kitchen Support
Thinking about an outdoor kitchen? We design reinforced concrete pads that can safely support grills, counters, and appliances. Proper grading and drainage are built in to ensure long-term performance.
Steps, Transitions, and Drainage Slopes
Our patios include thoughtful elevation changes to direct water away from the slab, protecting against pooling and erosion. Step transitions are integrated for easy access to doors, lawns, and pool decks.

Frequently Asked Questions About Concrete Patios in Plano
Thinking about upgrading your backyard with a new concrete patio? Below are answers to the most common questions homeowners in Plano ask us. Whether you're planning a cozy gathering space or a full outdoor kitchen, we've got you covered.
How thick should a concrete patio be?
Most residential patios are poured at 4 inches thick, which is ideal for furniture, grills, and everyday use. In areas with heavier use or outdoor kitchens, we may recommend 5 inches to handle additional weight and ensure long-term strength.
Is rebar included in your patio installations?
Yes. At Concrete Commandos Plano, we reinforce every patio with rebar or welded wire mesh. This added support helps your slab withstand shifting clay soil, temperature swings, and natural wear over time. It is one of the most important steps for durability.
Can you remove my old patio before building a new one?
Definitely. We handle everything from demolition to final cleanup. Our team will tear out your old concrete, haul away debris, regrade the area with compacted gravel, and pour a brand-new slab that is stronger, better-drained, and properly sloped.
How long does concrete take to cure?
Concrete reaches full strength after 28 days, but most patios are ready for light use within 48 hours. We recommend waiting 7 days before placing heavy furniture or equipment. Proper curing helps avoid cracks and ensures your patio lasts for decades.
What kinds of finishes can I choose for my patio?
We offer a variety of finish options including broom finish for traction, exposed aggregate for texture, and decorative stamped patterns like flagstone or ashlar. You can also choose integral color or surface stains to match your style. See finish options.
Should I seal my patio after it’s poured?
Sealing is a smart way to protect your investment, especially for decorative or colored concrete. Our sealants help block moisture, reduce fading, and keep the surface looking fresh through hot Texas summers and seasonal changes.
Do you offer custom features like fire pits or seat walls?
Yes, we do. Our patios can be designed with built-in fire pits, concrete seating, step transitions, and even utility-ready pads for outdoor kitchens. Let us help you turn your backyard into a fully functional and relaxing space.
What’s under the concrete patio? Do you use a gravel base?
Absolutely. A properly compacted gravel subbase is the foundation of a long-lasting patio. It improves drainage and prevents the slab from settling or cracking. We never pour concrete directly on soil in Plano due to the risk of movement.
Do I need a permit to build a patio in Plano?
Most patio projects require permits. The good news is that Concrete Commandos Plano handles the entire process, including applications, inspections, and HOA paperwork if needed. We make sure everything is done up to code from start to finish.
How much does a concrete patio cost?
Every patio is different. Costs depend on square footage, finish type, site conditions, and add-ons like walkways or seating. We provide detailed, transparent estimates so you know exactly what you're paying for. Call 866-885-5520 or get your free quote today.
