Q: Will a patio cause my property taxes to go up?

• <div><p>Some patios will cause your property taxes to increase, while others will not. A good rule of thumb is that if your patio requires a permit, your taxes will increase. That&rsquo;s because permits are necessary for &ldquo;permanent&rdquo; land improvements, and your taxes are based partially on improvements. Something like a concrete patio that&rsquo;s considered permanent will bump up your property taxes, while a &ldquo;temporary&rdquo; paver patio or flagstone patio will not negatively affect your taxes. Keep in mind that this can vary, so always contact your building department to see if your patio project will affect your taxes.</p></div>

Q: Do services include ground preparation for new concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, most professional services offer ground leveling and preparation for new installations.</p></div>

Q: Do masons pour concrete?

• <div><p>In most cases, yes, masons can build concrete forms and pour concrete for a variety of home improvement projects, including foundation pouring. Some masons may prefer to focus on more aesthetic and artistic masonry work, like building retaining walls, crafting custom fireplaces, tiling, or installing stucco siding, but most also have experience pouring concrete. You can always <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-ask-masonry-contractor.htm">ask your masonry contractor</a> if they also handle poured concrete projects.</p></div>

Q: How much do cement companies charge for concrete projects?

• <div><p>Cement companies often charge a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-deliver-concrete.htm">per-cubic-yard cost for concrete</a>, which averages around <b>$130</b>. In most cases, you can also expect to pay for leveling, surfacing, and add-on services, like stamping concrete. Here are some typical prices for common concrete projects for which you may hire a cement company.</p><p> </p><ul><li><p>Walkway: $1,800</p></li><li><p>Driveway: $2,800</p></li><li><p>Standard patio: $3,300</p></li><li><p>Stamped concrete patio: $4,000</p></li><li><p>Concrete steps: $3,500</p></li><li><p>Colored concrete: $3,800</p></li></ul><p>You might also need to budget for removing your old concrete or additional land prep before your professional can pour concrete.</p></div>

Q: Could I get a concrete slab instead?

• <div><p>If you're only working with a gravel pad, and there is no concrete foundation, you might be able to upgrade to a concrete slab, but you&rsquo;d have to speak with a professional concrete expert to confirm and get pricing. If you have a concrete foundation or cement block walls around the area where you want to build flooring, you might be able to pour a new concrete floor over the existing one to forgo repairs. Again, speak with a concrete expert or foundation company to see if this is an option.</p></div>

Replaced concrete patio. Excellent quality of work. Our yard was very moist so they delayed starting until it dried. Showed a great amount of concern for our total satisfaction. Great communication through out the project. The price was less than others quoted for this project. A great value.
