What We Do
We pour new patios and fix existing ones. A short list of the work we take on:
- Full patio installation, poured and finished on site
- Repairing cracked or sunken slabs
- Resurfacing patios that look worn or stained
- Stamped and colored concrete finishes
- Small courtyard, rooftop, and townhouse patio pours
- Leveling patios that have tilted away from the house
If your project sits somewhere between a patio and something else, like a walkway that connects to it, just tell us. We handle that too.
How Much Does a Concrete Patio Cost in NYC?
Here's what our patio work typically runs:
| Type of Work | Typical Price Range |
|---|---|
| Crack repair (isolated sections) | $400 – $1,500 |
| Slab leveling / mudjacking | $1,000 – $4,000 |
| Patio resurfacing | $8 – $15 per sq ft |
| New concrete patio, standard broom finish | $15 – $25 per sq ft |
| Stamped or colored concrete | $22 – $40 per sq ft |
| Small townhouse courtyard (150–300 sq ft) | $4,000 – $9,000 |
| Typical backyard patio (400–600 sq ft) | $8,000 – $18,000 |
| Rooftop patio pour | $25 – $50 per sq ft, depending on structural work and access |
| Demolition and removal of existing slab | $3 – $8 per sq ft |
| Drainage correction and regrading | $1,500 – $6,000 |
Size, soil conditions, access to the yard, and whether the existing base can be reused all affect the final number, so we give you a written itemized price after seeing the space in person.
Why We Look Before We Quote
A phone estimate for a patio is a guess. Yard size, soil type, and drainage all change the job, and none of that shows up in a phone call. So we don't quote that way.
One of our estimators comes out, walks the space, and looks at what's underneath any existing concrete if there is any. Then we write up a real price based on your yard, not an average. There's no cost for the visit and no obligation after it.
What Makes Us Worth Calling
We're licensed through the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection as a Home Improvement Contractor, and we carry full insurance on every job. Our crews work under OSHA safety guidelines, and we've been doing this in New York specifically, not just concrete work in general, for 25 years.
That local part matters. A patio poured the same way in Arizona would crack here in three winters. NYC ground freezes and thaws several times a season, and clay soil in parts of Queens and the Bronx holds water differently than sandy soil in other boroughs. We build for our own weather and our own dirt, because that's what we've been doing here for two and a half decades.
Signs Your Patio Is Past a Simple Fix
A few hairline cracks aren't usually a concern. These are the signs that mean it's time to call someone:
- One section of the patio sits noticeably lower than the rest
- Water sits on the surface for hours after it rains
- Cracks are wide enough to fit a coin
- The surface flakes or crumbles when you sweep it
- Grass or weeds are growing up through the joints
Any one of these on its own might wait. A few together usually means the ground underneath is moving, and that gets worse with each freeze.
Repair or Replace: How We Decide
We get asked this on almost every visit. Our answer depends on how much of the patio is affected, not just how bad one section looks.
If the damage is contained to one area and the rest of the slab is solid, a repair holds up fine and costs a lot less. If cracking shows up across most of the patio, or the concrete is original from 20-plus years ago, patching it usually just delays a bigger job. We'll tell you which one applies to your patio, even when the repair is the cheaper answer for us to give.
The Steps, in Plain Terms
Here's what happens after you call:
We schedule a visit around your availability. Our estimator checks the yard, the drainage, and any existing concrete, then gives you a price in writing before anything starts. If your project needs a permit from the Department of Buildings, we file it ourselves. Once work begins, our crew grades the base, sets forms, and pours or patches to the right depth for this climate. When it's done, we walk the finished patio with you before we call it complete.
Boroughs We Work In
Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx. Backyard patios, rooftop spaces, and small townhouse courtyards all fall under what we do regularly. Every borough has different lot sizes and ground conditions, and 25 years of local jobs means we already know what to check for before we show up.
Ready to Talk About Your Patio?
If your patio has a crack, a low spot, or water that won't drain, call us. We'll come take a look, walk you through what we find, and give you a real number. No pressure either way.
Questions We Hear Often
No, not usually. Concrete that cracks that early often points to a base that wasn't compacted properly, or a slab poured too thin for this climate. We can take a look and tell you what's likely going on underneath.
In most cases, yes. We'll look at the color, texture, and finish of your current patio and get as close a match as possible so the repaired section doesn't stand out.
That depends on the structure underneath it, not just the concrete. Before we pour anything on a rooftop or deck, we check the load the existing structure can safely handle. That's part of the onsite visit.
We can, but timing matters. Concrete needs the right temperature to cure properly, so late fall and winter pours need extra planning around weather. Our estimator will walk you through the timeline during your visit.
Resurfacing adds a new top layer over concrete that's structurally sound but worn or stained. Replacing means removing the old slab and pouring new. If the base underneath is solid, resurfacing is usually the faster and cheaper option.
They can, especially if a tree sits close to the edge. Roots grow toward moisture and can lift or crack a slab from below. If you have trees nearby, mention it when you call so our estimator can check for it during the visit.
