Concrete Patio Installation in Kennewick WA

Let us be honest for a minute. When you look out your back window right now, what do you see? Do you see a boring patch of dirt that turns into a giant mud puddle every time it rains? Do you see an old, gray slab that has more cracks than a dropped phone screen? Or maybe you have a wooden deck that looks a bit sad because the hot sun and wet winters have beaten it up for years. If you are nodding your head right now, we need to talk.



Living in the Tri-Cities means we get to enjoy some amazing summer weather. We have long, warm evenings that are just perfect for grilling hot dogs or relaxing outside with a cold glass of lemonade. But you cannot really enjoy that time if you do not have a great place to sit. You definitely do not want to put your nice lawn chair in the wet dirt. You want a solid, flat, and beautiful space.


That is exactly where Kennewick Concrete King comes to the rescue. We are the premier concrete patio contractors in Kennewick, WA. We take that boring patch of grass or dirt and turn it into your absolute favorite room in the house. It just happens to be located outside!

Poured Concrete Patio Beats Wood Decks and Pavers

You have a lot of choices when it comes to fixing up your backyard. You could build a wooden deck. You could put down pavers, which are those little individual bricks. You could even just throw down some gravel. But there is a reason why a poured concrete patio is the heavyweight champion of backyards.


Wood Rots and Splinters

Wood decks look really nice for about two years. Then, the hot Kennewick sun bakes them dry. The winter snow and rain soak them completely. Suddenly, splinters start popping up out of nowhere. You have to paint, stain, and seal wood decks every single summer, or they turn gray and ugly. Plus, bugs absolutely love to eat wood. Do you know what bugs do not like to eat? Rocks and cement. Concrete does not rot, it will never warp, and it will certainly never give your bare feet a nasty splinter.


Pavers Become a Weed Farm

Pavers might look fancy at first, but they have one huge flaw: the gaps between them. No matter how much sand you sweep between those little bricks, weeds will always find a way to grow. Ants will build tiny dirt hills right in the cracks. Over time, the ground underneath settles, and your nice flat patio turns into a bumpy tripping hazard. A concrete patio installation gives you one solid, heavy piece. There are no gaps, which means there are no weeds and no sneaky ants.


Concrete Saves You Money

Believe it or not, pouring a fresh concrete slab is almost always cheaper than building a big wood deck. It is also cheaper than paying someone to lay down thousands of little pavers by hand. Because you do not have to fix it, paint it, or stain it every single year, it keeps saving you money for decades. You get to keep your cash in your wallet where it belongs.


Our Professional Concrete Patio Installation Services

We are not a "one-trick pony." We know that every house in Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland is totally different. You might just want a simple, clean spot for a new hot tub. Or, you might want a huge, fancy space that looks like it belongs on the cover of a home magazine. Whatever you want, our team can handle it.


The Classic Broom Finish Concrete

This is the most popular type of patio we install. It is neat, clean, and very friendly to your wallet. We pour the wet mixture and then use a special brush to drag a light, soft texture across the very top. This gives the surface a gentle grip. That way, you do not slip and slide around when it gets wet from the lawn sprinklers or a rainstorm. It looks perfectly tidy and matches any style of house.


Custom Stamped Concrete for a High-End Look

This is the part where our concrete patio contractors get to show off their art skills. Stamped concrete is when we take the wet cement and press giant rubber stamps right into it. These stamps have cool shapes and patterns on them. We can make your brand-new patio look exactly like expensive slate stone, weathered wood planks, red bricks, or round river rocks. We also mix special colors into it. Instead of plain gray, your new outdoor space can be warm tan, dark red, or cool charcoal. Your friends will think you spent a fortune on fancy stones!


Beautiful Colored and Stained Concrete

Maybe you do not want a stamp pattern, but you also do not want plain gray. We have a great fix for that. We can mix bright colors right into the truck before we even pour the cement. We can also use safe chemical stains after it dries to give it a neat, swirly, marbled look. It is a fantastic way to add a huge pop of personality to your yard.

Ideas for Your New Backyard Setup

If you are stuck on what to do with your yard, we can help. Here are a few awesome ways our happy customers use their new outdoor spaces.


Custom BBQ Zones and Outdoor Kitchens

We can build a space specifically meant for your grill or heavy smoker. No more dealing with wobbly wheels sinking into the soft grass! We can even pour a little extra room for a nice big table and chairs. That way, you can eat those tasty burgers right when they come off the heat.


Safe and Strong Hot Tub Pads

Hot tubs are incredibly heavy. When you fill them with water and people, they weigh thousands of pounds. You cannot just plop them down on the soft dirt. You need a thick, super-strong concrete slab to hold all that weight safely. We build heavy-duty pads that stay perfectly level and support your spa for many years.


Cozy Fire Pit Areas for Fall Nights

Imagine having a beautiful, round stamped patio with a cool fire pit right in the middle. You can put some big, comfy chairs around it, grab a bag of marshmallows, and you instantly have the greatest autumn hangout spot in the whole neighborhood.


Slip-Resistant Pool Decks

If you are lucky enough to have a swimming pool, you need a safe area all around it. Concrete is perfect for this because we can make it slightly rough so nobody slips. It also does not get quite as hot on your bare feet as dark wood or black pavers do.


Our Proven Concrete Patio Installation Process

There are some guys out there who will just dump wet cement on the grass and try to smooth it out. That is a terrible idea. In less than a year, a patio built like that will crack and sink into the mud. At Kennewick Concrete King, we follow a strict set of rules to make sure your project lasts.


Step One: The Deep Dig

We never, ever pour over grass. We dig deep into the area to remove the soft topsoil and old roots. We have to dig down until we hit solid, hard earth.


Step Two: A Rock-Solid Foundation

This might be the most important step of all. We bring in a thick layer of crushed gravel. We spread it out nice and even, and then we use a heavy, noisy machine called a compactor to smash it down tight. This gives your new patio a solid bed to rest on so it never sinks.


Step Three: Steel Muscle

Concrete is very hard, but it can snap if the ground tries to bend it. To stop this from happening, we put steel rods called rebar or strong wire mesh inside the wet mix. This steel acts just like the bones in your body. It holds everything together tightly, even if the dirt shifts a little bit.


Step Four: The Perfect Pour and Finish

Next, we pour the wet mix and smooth it out perfectly. This is where our workers really shine. We make sure it is totally flat, but we add a tiny, invisible slope pointing away from your house. This ensures that rainwater runs off into the grass and does not pool up against your home's walls. Then, we apply your favorite finish and let it rest.


Step Five: Smart Control Cuts

You have probably noticed straight lines cut into city sidewalks. Those are called "control joints." When wet cement dries, it shrinks just a tiny bit. These smart cuts tell the slab, "If you are going to crack from shrinking, please crack right here deep in this straight line where nobody can see it." It keeps the top looking smooth and flawless.

  • How much does a concrete patio cost in Kennewick?

    This is the number one question we get! The price depends on a few simple things. We have to look at how big the space is, if you want a plain brush finish or a fancy stamped design, and how easy it is to drive our machines into your backyard. A basic broom-finish slab is the cheapest option. Stamped designs cost a bit more because they take extra time and special color materials. We always offer free estimates. We will come out, measure your yard, and give you an exact price.

  • Will my new concrete patio crack?

    Here is the simple truth: this material naturally wants to get hard and crack over time. However, we do everything in our power to stop that. We use a deep gravel base, strong steel rebar inside the slab, and smart control joint cuts. These cuts force any tiny hairline cracks to happen deep inside the grooves where you cannot see them. Our careful process stops big, ugly cracks from forming.

  • How long do I have to wait before I can walk on it?

    It dries on top pretty fast, but it takes time to get strong on the inside. You can usually walk on your new backyard space very carefully after about 24 to 48 hours. But, if you want to put heavy lawn chairs, a giant hot tub, or your BBQ grill on it, you really need to wait at least 7 full days. It takes about a whole month to cure completely and reach its maximum rock-hard strength.

  • Can you pour concrete over my old patio?

    We can sometimes, but it is usually a bad idea. If your old slab is already cracked and sinking, pouring a new layer on top is like putting a tiny band-aid on a broken arm. The new layer will just crack right where the old cracks are underneath. It is almost always better to rip out the old, broken stuff and start totally fresh with a new gravel base.

  • Is stamped concrete slippery?

    It can be a little slick, especially when it rains. Because we paint a clear, shiny sealer over stamped designs to protect the pretty colors, it can feel like a smooth kitchen floor. But do not worry! We can easily mix a special grip powder into the clear sealer. It acts like tiny grains of clear sand. It gives your shoes plenty of grip without changing how awesome the colors look.

  • Do you pour concrete in the winter?

    We can, but it is very tricky. The wet mix contains a lot of water. If that water freezes into ice before the slab dries, the whole project is ruined. Our winters in the Tri-Cities can get really freezing cold. We usually do most of our pouring from the warm spring through the cool fall. If we do work in the winter, we have to cover the ground with special heated blankets.
