Our Patio Installation Process
Consultation and Design
We start with a detailed consultation to understand your vision. Whether you want a simple dining patio or an expansive outdoor living space, we design the layout based on your intended use and property size.
Site Preparation
Proper site preparation is critical for durability. We excavate the area to the necessary depth, ensuring a level base for concrete pouring. This step includes installing compacted sand/gravel and ensuring proper drainage to prevent water pooling.
Reinforcement and Pouring
Using high-quality concrete mixes, we add reinforcement (such as rebar or mesh) to increase strength and prevent cracking. Once poured, we smooth the concrete, allowing it to cure properly for long-term stability.
Finishing Touches
Choose from a variety of finishes such as troweled, broomed, or exposed concrete to give your patio the desired look. We also offer custom colour options to match your outdoor décor
Sealing and Maintenance
Once the concrete is cured, we apply a high-grade sealant to protect your patio from weather and wear. This final step ensures your patio remains beautiful and functional for years.
Whether you’re looking to create a space for entertaining or a quiet outdoor retreat, Rock Solid Worx delivers patios that are both functional and beautiful. Contact us today to start designing your perfect concrete patio.
frequently asked questions
Permeable concrete has a distinctive, open-textured surface with visible aggregates, giving it a rough, unfinished appearance. The lack of fine particles, such as sand, creates voids within the concrete, allowing water to pass through. This porous structure is both functional and aesthetically suitable for various applications.
Permeable concrete block paving consists of specially designed interlocking blocks that create gaps between them, allowing rainwater to seep through the surface and into the ground below. This design helps manage stormwater runoff and can be used in driveways, walkways, and parking lots.
Concrete is an excellent choice for a patio due to its durability, versatility, and low maintenance. It can withstand various weather conditions, making it suitable for both hot and cold climates. Concrete also offers a wide range of design possibilities, from simple plain finishes to more decorative stamped or coloured options. While it can crack over time due to settling or temperature changes, proper installation with control joints and sealing can extend its lifespan. Overall, concrete provides a functional and attractive option for homeowners looking for a long-lasting outdoor surface.
Yes, you can extend your concrete patio. Adding to an existing concrete patio involves preparing the site, ensuring proper grading, and pouring new concrete that blends with the original surface. It’s important to use a professional to ensure that the new section properly adheres to the existing slab and that both sections have matching textures and colours. Depending on the condition of the original patio, the extension may involve cutting control joints to prevent cracking or using bonding agents to integrate the two sections seamlessly.
