How Do We Build Concrete Patios That Last?
Every concrete patio is built to code, climate, and use-case.
Here’s what you can expect with our process:
STEP
01
Design & Site Evaluation
We assess soil condition, sun/shade exposure, drainage, and desired size and shape. Want room for a pergola, outdoor kitchen, or fire pit? We’ll plan it in.
STEP
02
Grading & Subbase Prep
- 4–6 inches of compacted Class II base rock
- Laser-leveled slope for proper water runoff
- Moisture barriers to protect concrete integrity
STEP
03
Reinforcement
- Rebar grid or wire mesh depending on size/load
- Expansion and control joints every 8–10 feet
- Optional fiber reinforcement for added shrinkage resistance
STEP
04
Pouring & Finishing
- 3,000–4,000 PSI mix (from NRMCA-certified plant)
- Surface finish of your choice: smooth, broom, exposed aggregate, or stamped
- Integral color or staining if selected
STEP
05
Curing & Sealing
- We follow ACI 308R curing protocols
- Cure & seal with UV-protective or high-gloss sealants (Behr, Seal-Krete)
According to the Concrete Network, sealed patios can resist fading, water absorption, and surface wear for over 20 years.
What Size and Thickness Should My Patio Be?
- Standard patio slabs: 4” thick
- Load-bearing patios (with hot tubs/outdoor kitchens): 5"–6" thick
- Reinforcement: #3 or #4 rebar placed 12"–18" apart
We design every patio with California Building Code and Vacaville soil conditions in mind, so your investment is safe from shifting, settling, and cracks.

What Our Clients Are Saying
"We worked with Concrete Sergeant to create a stamped concrete patio for our fire pit and outdoor seating area. From the first consultation, they were professional, patient, and full of great ideas. The stamped finish looks like real slate and gives our yard a high-end feel without the cost. It’s held up beautifully through all weather."
Rachel D., Annapolis, MD
"I had a general layout in mind for a grilling and dining patio, but Concrete Sergeant helped me refine the design and choose the perfect finish. They installed it in just a few days and left no mess behind. We chose an exposed aggregate look and it’s stunning—textured, slip-resistant, and super durable. Highly recommend!"

Frequently Asked Questions – Concrete Patio Contractors Vacaville, CA
Who do I call to get a nice cement patio poured in my backyard?
Give Cubic Concrete Construction a call! We’re a licensed and insured concrete contractor serving Vacaville and the surrounding areas, and we specialize in clean, professional patio installs tailored to your space and style.
How long does it take to install a concrete patio?
Most concrete patios take just 2–5 days from start to finish, depending on the size and complexity. At Cubic Concrete Construction, we stay on schedule and handle everything from prep to clean-up—so your backyard transformation is smooth and stress-free.
What’s the best finish for a concrete patio?
The best finish depends on your style and how you plan to use the space. We offer broom finishes for slip-resistance, exposed aggregate for texture, and stamped or colored finishes for a decorative look. We’re happy to walk you through the options!
How thick should a concrete patio be?
For most backyards in Vacaville, a 4-inch thick patio works great. But if you're planning on placing heavy furniture or need more durability, we recommend going up to 6–8 inches. We always lay a solid gravel base to help prevent cracking down the line.
How long does a concrete patio last?
When installed and maintained correctly, a concrete patio can last 30 to 50 years—or even longer. Our team uses high-quality materials and proven installation methods so you get a patio that stands the test of time, even in California’s variable weather.
Will my concrete patio crack?
Minor hairline cracks can happen over time due to weather and settling, but we take every precaution—like installing control joints and using a compacted base—to reduce the risk. Proper sealing and maintenance also help your patio stay strong and crack-free longer.
Is a concrete patio cheaper than pavers?
Yes, concrete patios are usually more budget-friendly than pavers—especially if you go with standard poured concrete. At Cubic Concrete Construction, we often recommend concrete for homeowners looking to get more value per square foot while still achieving a clean, durable finish.
How much does a 20x20 concrete patio cost?
For a 20x20 concrete patio, you’re typically looking at a price range of $4,000 to $76,00, depending on design and site conditions. At Cubic Concrete Construction, we offer competitive pricing—and for larger patios, we can often work out a better rate per square foot
