We couldn't keep you in suspense any longer. The patio project is 99% complete, and we had to share pictures of the beautiful patio that we now have in our back yard...
We also have the last gallery of patio pictures. This should fill you in on what happened since the last step. They power-washed the concrete to bring it to the basic white-with-beige-texture color. They then finished and textured the sides. All of this happened yesterday, and today they came out to stain and seal the patio.
The staining process took about 5 hours, as two of Visual Concrete's best painstakingly stained each individual "brick" by hand. They also stained the sides and the steps as well. As you can see from the pictures, this brought the patio to life. Finally, they applied a sealer to lock in the color and to protect the concrete, stain and all so that we can enjoy this beautiful masterpiece for many years to come.
We had high expectations for the patio, but I honestly believe that Visual Concrete managed to exceed those expectations. This sets a high standard for our deck project next week! Stay tuned for pictures from the deck, as well as final pictures (hopefully!) of the entire project!

The patio looks great! I can't believe how much has changed in less than a week. I hope the deck goes up just as easily.
Love,

I've never seen anything like it! It looks just like stone. It's beautiful! It's amazing what technology can do today. Maybe I have seen it but just didn't realize I was standing on cement. Can't wait to see the deck now.
Love, Mom
Jason, Holly,
The patio alone without the deck looks great! Who came up with the patio size and shape? That was a great design and it adds a whole new dimension to your house.

That has got to be the finest looking patio I have ever seen. Simply amazing! I must tell the world, but I will have to keep it a secret from Deanna because she will want one.
Uncle Mike! You guys already have stamped concrete. Your driveway is gorgeous too. I really am impressed with the stamped concrete so far. Although it is really dirty after deck construction. Pictures will be uploaded probably next weekend once the dust has settled.
