There are many reasons for choosing a concrete patio for your Raleigh, North Carolina area backyard. Four of our customers' favorite reasons include:
1. To establish an outdoor entertainment area.
Your beautifully constructed concrete patio provides plenty of space for you and your guests to gather, lounge and entertain yourselves. You can use this space to connect your indoor living to the outdoors. Using concrete, TrulyHome Concrete can create a custom decorative design for your outdoor kitchen or an outdoor living room. We can even add cozy seating, water features, fireplaces and fire pits.
2. To add customized color and imprinting to your outdoor areas.
With outdoor flooring designed by TrulyHome Concrete, you can really enhance the beauty of your exterior spaces. In fact, having a concrete patio opens up the outdoors to everyday living. Color and patterns make that living space more inviting. We use a wide range of stains and colors to coordinate your patio with your home exterior or outdoor environment. Stamped concrete is a popular option for making your patio look like stone, slate, brick or tile. We can also create artistic designs suited to surrounding architecture.
3. Upgrade backyard style without the high cost of other materials.
If you want a flagstone, brick or slate patio, you better be ready to spend a lot of money for that surfacing. But a stamped concrete patio enables you to achieve the same look at a much lower cost. Even better, concrete provides greater durability and lower maintenance costs for longer lasting beauty.
4. High durability and low maintenance make outdoor living easy.
A decorative concrete patio makes your Raleigh area backyard more inviting. It achieves this while also being long-lasting and durable against weather, foot traffic, furniture and other damaging elements. You can get years of enjoyment out of your concrete patio without having to worry about pulling weeds between joints, grouting the spaces or fixing warped areas.
Besides creating a livable all-season space using concrete, you can make your patio even more enjoyable by adding some architectural elements. Also made of concrete, these enhancements make your flat patio a three-dimensional outdoor living area.
Concrete Seat Walls
One of the most popular ways to add dimension to a concrete patio is through addition of concrete seat walls. These low-cost seating areas provide more room for comfortable entertaining. They also add greater depth to your outdoor floor plan, creating a focal point and dividing the patio from your landscaping.
Concrete Water Features
When installing a concrete patio, our TrulyHome Concrete professionals are frequently asked about placement of water features. Designing a patio surface of stamped concrete can enhance your water feature, such as through the look of flagstone or rocks. Instead of paying a fortune to have precisely-measured stones brought onto your property, TrulyHome can recreate the look of stone around your water feature through imprinted concrete. We also color or stain the concrete to mimic the appearance of natural stone.
Outdoor Fireplaces and Fire Pits
Warmth is important for your concrete patio in winter. Luckily, Raleigh weather is just warm enough to enjoy your patio year-round, particularly if you have a fire pit or outdoor fireplace. TrulyHome Concrete can help you incorporate an outdoor fireplace or fire pit into your patio design. Such design adds a romantic ambience and warm glow to your outdoor living space.
Outdoor Kitchens and Barbecue Areas
Concrete works especially well as the flooring, surrounds and countertops for your outdoor kitchen or barbecue area. Your TrulyHome Concrete outdoor kitchen can include a stamped concrete floor and smooth concrete countertops for cohesive beauty and convenient food preparation. In fact, concrete countertops are the most popular outdoor material for patio kitchens these days.
TrulyHome Concrete patios expand the living space of your home while adding architectural appeal that enhances your home value. Stamped concrete patios cost far less than natural stone or other surfacing materials, yet provide the natural look you want. Stamped concrete can also dress up your patio space by elevating a smooth surface to one with three dimensional design and color.
