Stamped concrete services in South Burlington VT - a patterned patio sealed with care
Tired of a plain gray slab out back? We pour a patterned patio and seal it with care, so it looks the way you pictured.
What stamped concrete does for your patio
A stamped patio is poured concrete with a pattern pressed in while it's still soft, then most often finished with a topical sealer, a coat that dries as a thin film on top. That coat brings out the color and helps the surface shed water and stains. Most of our stamped concrete services in South Burlington, VT, are patios, and a matching front walk falls under our concrete sidewalk building work.
On stamped work the sealer matters as much as the pattern. If you want deeper color, a topical sealer is the right kind, because most penetrating sealers, the kind that soak in, leave color as it is. We apply it with care, since too much or too early can spoil the look, and I'll show you how to tell when it needs a fresh coat.
That also sets the calendar. Guidance from Alberta, Canada, names late summer as ideal for sealing, after at least a month of drying once the concrete has cured, which is its first stretch of hardening, so we plan your pour early in the season. Price moves with the patio's size, the pattern and whether the slab is reinforced with steel, and my written estimate lists the work and materials so you can see each part.
Stamped concrete, done in order
You get a patterned patio done in the right order, with nothing rushed or skipped. If the garage floor concrete needs work too, I'm glad to look at both on one visit.

Stamped patio questions we hear
How much does a stamped concrete patio cost in South Burlington?
A stamped concrete patio in the Burlington area usually costs about $9 to $18 per square foot. That's the going rate for patios around here, not a quote from us, and where yours falls depends on its size and the choices I mentioned above, such as reinforcement. Your written estimate gives you your own figure.
How often does a stamped concrete patio need to be resealed?
Reseal when the surface needs it, not on a set schedule. The signs are water and stains no longer beading off the way they did, or color that looks flatter, and extra coats beyond that leave a buildup that's slow and costly to remove. I'll show you what to watch for.
Do I need a permit for a stamped patio in South Burlington?
You may, so we check before we set a pour date. In South Burlington, the Development Review Board reviews construction work, and the Zoning Administrator can approve an administrative permit for some types of work. We help you prepare and file whatever's required, and the city's planning and zoning office takes questions at 802-846-4106.
Will a new patio raise my stormwater fee in South Burlington?
Not if it's a single-family home, because the city charges those a flat stormwater fee. Other properties pay by how much hard surface they have, like rooftops and driveways, so on a rental or business property a new patio can add to the fee. That's worth knowing before you settle on a size.
Does a concrete contractor need to be registered in Vermont?
Yes, for residential jobs over $10,000.00, labor and materials included. Vermont requires registration with the Office of Professional Regulation before contracting with a homeowner for that work, and exterior construction and paving count. Above that amount, a registered contractor must also sign a written contract with price terms, estimated dates, the work and materials before taking a deposit or starting.
