Concrete Patio Contractor in Laveen, Phoenix, AZ

Taking 2000s builder patios in Laveen up to a size that fits.

Phoenix · River and wash alluvium

Laveen grew fast in the 2000s, and about half its homes were built between 2004 and 2007. Most of those houses came with a builder patio: a small slab under the roof off the back slider, sized for a couple of chairs. Twenty years on, owners want more room. The common projects here are extending that slab toward the back wall, adding a stamped or colored finish, and pouring pads for a shade structure, a grill, or a fire pit.

Planning a patio in Laveen

Laveen sits on flat ground west of South Mountain, on river and wash alluvium. The soil drains well, but it settles when wet or loaded if it isn't compacted, and a flat yard gives water nowhere to go unless the patio and grade send it somewhere. Builder backfill near the foundation is a common weak spot. We dig to firm ground, compact the base in lifts, and give the patio enough fall to move water off the slab and away from the house.

The City of Phoenix handles permits for Laveen, and we check what your patio needs. Many Laveen subdivisions have an HOA, and we prepare the layout, finish and color for its review. Side yards on these lots are often narrow, so we plan pump or buggy access at the visit. Summer pours start early in the morning, and we watch the monsoon forecast from June 15 to September 30.

What’s included

A Laveen patio gets planned around the yard, the shade and where storm water goes on river and wash alluvium, and the quote spells out each part:

  • New patios and patio extensions
  • Stamped, colored and exposed-aggregate finishes
  • Pergola and shade-structure pads, with footers
  • Fire-pit, grill and outdoor-kitchen slabs
  • Step pads and paths to the patio
  • Patio replacement and resurfacing
  • Slope away from the house
  • Compacted base for caliche or clay
  • Joint layout that fits the design
  • Color that holds up in the sun
  • A UV-resistant sealer, renewed every few years
The ground under Laveen

River and wash alluvium

Layered silt, sand and gravel laid down by the Salt River and the desert washes, across the flood plains and alluvial fans of the central and west Valley.

Compaction done in lifts at the right moisture, with loose or soft soil dug out and replaced, a thicker section anywhere a truck, trailer or RV will park, and grading that keeps runoff off the slab and out from under it. Washes and drainage easements stay open.

What fails here first

  • Corners or joints sunk below the next panel
  • Ruts or cracks along the tire lines of a driveway
  • Gaps opening under the edge of a slab
  • Soil washed out along an edge after a monsoon storm

Laveen patio questions

Straight answers

Sam The Concrete Man North Phoenix extends patios in Laveen, where most backyards still have the builder slab poured during the 2004 to 2007 boom. On flat ground the slope matters even more, so the new concrete is set to fall away from the house toward a spot where water can drain. We add footings for a pergola or shade cover, and lighter colors or a cool-deck style finish keep the patio cooler.
