What is stamped concrete?
Stamped concrete is a regular slab that gets pressed with textured mats while it’s still wet. Crews add color with an integral mix, a color hardener, or a release agent. Then they seal the surface so the pattern and color last.
It’s a common choice for patios, pool decks, walkways and driveway borders. You get the look of pavers or natural stone on a single poured surface, with no joints for weeds to grow through.
What affects the cost
Square footage
Bigger areas cost more overall, but the price per square foot often drops.
Pattern and color
Multiple colors, borders and detailed patterns add labor time.
Site prep
Removing old concrete, grading and adding base material all raise the price.
Sealing
A quality sealer protects the finish. Plan to reseal every few years.
