new patio advice

Stamped concrete is really popular right now, if you have never done it before I would suggest that do your homework and read up on the procedures and steps that you need to do or talk to someone thats knowledgeable on the subject that has actually done it before.

Just a few things you have to take into consideration.
1.) Rubber Stamped design that you want to go with, Rent or Buy Patterns
2.) Color: Dry Shake on Color or Integral Color Mixed into the Concrete
3.) Dry Shake on Stamp Release Agent, Color, Manufacturer etc. etc.
4.) Sealer, Product Name and Manufacturer

Alot of different things to take into consideration, there are many paths you can follow, its always a good idea to do a test sample maybe 4' x 4' first to see if the finished product is what you are after, if not you will need to make adjustments and try again.
