Q: What factors affect stamped concrete costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on design complexity, area size, and additional features like borders or color enhancements.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a terrace and a patio?

• <div><p>A terrace is a flat area that&rsquo;s raised slightly above ground level while a patio is built at the same level as the door leading into the house. Because of this, terraces usually aren&rsquo;t connected to the living areas of a home but are commonly found around pools and fire areas. </p></div>

Q: What adds more value: pavers or concrete?

• <div><p>A paver patio will add more value than a concrete patio. Pavers are a more commonly preferred option from an aesthetic and longevity point of view, so most buyers will be willing to pay more for a paver patio than they would for a concrete one. Pavers also don&rsquo;t require a permanent foundation, so they won&rsquo;t increase your property taxes. Buyers also prefer lower property taxes, so that will play into the ROI you&rsquo;ll see, too. </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a balcony and a patio?

• <div><p>Balconies and patios are both outdoor living spaces, but that&rsquo;s where the similarities end. A balcony is an open space built on the second story of a home, while a patio is a structure built directly on the ground in front of or behind a house. Patios tend to be larger than balconies and are often made from concrete, stone, or brick. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/deck-vs-patio-which-works-better.htm">Decks and patios</a> share a similar nature but still have distinct differences. </p></div>

Q: What happens if you don't put gravel under concrete?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t put gravel under concrete, the concrete can crack, sink, bow, or crumble. Even the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-forming.htm">concrete forming</a> process will not go as smoothly if you are working directly on the soil or bare bedrock. The lack of a proper gravel layer can also lead to drainage issues below your slab, leading to water issues throughout your lawn and around your foundation.</p></div>

Nestor and his team did an awesome job. The work was completed to my expectation and in a timely manner. They installed a patio door where a window was. It looks like it has always been there.
